English | 2012 | ISBN: 052111246X | 350 pages | PDF | 1,8 MB

Even so, gaps in the data can sometimes be filled.

Tragic Pathos: Pity and Fear in Greek Philosophy and Tragedy by Dana LaCourse Munteanu
English | 2011 | ISBN: 0521765102 | 292 pages | PDF | 1,3 MB

Scholars have often focused on understanding Aristotle's poetic theory, and particularly the concept of catharsis in the Poetics, as a response to Plato's critique of pity in the Republic. However, this book shows that, while Greek thinkers all acknowledge pity and some form of fear as responses to tragedy, each assumes for the two emotions a different purpose, mode of presentation and, to a degree, understanding.

How can one think about the same thing twice without knowing that it's the same thing? How can one think about nothing at all (for example Pegasus, the mythical flying horse)? Is thinking about oneself special? One could mistake one's car for someone else's, but it seems one could not mistake one's own headache for someone else's. Why not?

In your kitchen you denature proteins, crystallize compounds, react enzymes with substrates, and nurture desired microbial life while suppressing harmful microbes. And unlike in a laboratory, you can eat your experiments to verify your hypotheses.
