Please do upload more.... regardless of the subject. Your inquisitive/sharp mind and your hard labour of simplification (without losing the essence of the truth) are fascinating. Greetings from Portugal
Thank you again for the upload. Please make some lectures more often. You educated a lot people who didn't have the opportunity to access better education. More power to you Sir!
@@georgebrooks7775 is it possible to communicate with you on any other platform ? My father has been watching all of your uploads recently for PhD research purpose and there is an unanswered quistion in one of them.
@@we4am71 We can chat here. I am experimenting with the idea of using the chat as an open academic discussion--trying to be a "public humanist"--so what's the question?
@@georgebrooks7775 In your lecture about natural philosophy, you mentioned a name of a philosopher who delt with the basic elements of the universe. As I recall you began with Thales then you mentioned Heracletus and then you mentioned one of his students which wasn't clear if his name eximinis or something like that. I searched for his name (eximinis) and I couln't find any information about him. I dont know if I'm spelling the name correctly, but anyhow there is no mention of him that can be found by the information that I have.
@@we4am71 Which is a good reason for me to get the closed-captioning finished on all these--most of the time the auto-rendering thinks "Thales" is "Bailey's"! The line of nature philosophers over the two-part lecture discussed runs: Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Xenophanes, Heraclitus, Empedocles, Democritus, Anaxagoras, Parmenides, Xeno, Pythagoras, and then in class it concludes with Eratosthenes using geometrical inference and a single observation and calculation to determine pretty accurately the size of the Earth.
