Plato Meno
dramatic-historical dating 401 BC
2021 || Paperback || Ron Jonkvorst || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
The dramatic date of Plato’s dialogue Meno cannot be meaningfully determined until this character has been identified as one of the generals from Xenophon’s Anabasis. Researchers have attempted to date Plato’s dialogue immediately prior to this Voyage of the Ten Thousand that began in 401 BC, but have been pushed back to the winter of 403/402 based on conservative estimates. Renewed reading and factual research have filled the gaps so that Meno can finally be pushed forward to the year ...

Time as a fundamental reality
2021 || Paperback || H.J. Gels || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
Relativity theory has annexed the reality of Time through the introduction of the abstract concept of 'spacetime'. Since then, this one sided physical conception has distorted our daily view of Time. Yes, Space is relative, but Time is not a 4th dimension of Space! Time is much more than that. It leaves its mark on Space during the course of history, not the other way around! Time flows and acts in Space as a rhythmically varying polarity - between causality and finality, between chronology a...

CREATIVITY EXPLORED
In Gulliver's footsteps
2021 || Paperback || Hans Kokhuis || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
Generally speaking books on creativity are of two kinds. Those that tell us how to become creative by changing the situation, and those that tell us to become creative by changing ourselves. Then follows practical advice as to the ways and means in which creativity may be attained.
This series does not want to do either! By our very nature we are creative but more or less unaware of that. So instead of giving lots of practical advice, it questions our routine ways of looking and interpreti...
