Past Assignments

30 January

Read the selection from Aristotle. Come to class prepared to explain what Aristotle's view on the infinite.

1 February

Get a head start and begin reading the selection from Galileo's Two New Sciences: First Day.

I emailed you the prefered translation. If you didn't get that email let me know.

But, if that isn't up yet, an fair translation is freely available here.

Our goal is to ultimately read up to but not past the passage by Simplicio that in this translation begins "I cannot help admiring your discussion; but I fear that this parallelism...." In the version I'm trying to get back onto e-reserves it is page 44 (or, original edition page numbers are on the side margins, and by those we would like to get to 82.) You're welcome to read farther, but we won't need to discuss past this point and I won't require that anyone read past this point.
