Book Summary: Timaeus By Plato And Translated With An Introduction By Benjamin Jowett. Of All The Writings Of Plato The Timaeus Is The Most Obscure And Repulsive To The Modern Reader, And Has Nevertheless Had The Greatest Influence Over The Ancient And Mediaeval World. The Obscurity Arises In The Infancy Of Physical Science, Out Of The Confusion Of Theological, Mathematical, And Physiological Notions, Out Of The Desire To Conceive The Whole Of Nature Without Any Adequate Knowledge Of The Parts, And From A Greater Perception Of Similarities Which Lie On The Surface Than Of Differences Which Are Hidden From View. To Bring Sense Under The Control Of Reason; To Find Some Way Through The Mist Or Labyrinth Of Appearances, Either The Highway Of Mathematics, Or More Devious Paths Suggested By The Analogy Of Man With The World, And Of The World With Man; To See That All Things Have A Cause And Are Tending Towards An End — This Is The Spirit Of The Ancient Physical Philosopher.
