Thales’ Vitalism
No full textU radu se analizira Talesovo shvaćanje duše, uz primarno oslanjanje na Aristotelove kapitalne uvide i konzultiranje relevantnih doksografskih bilješki. Istraživanjem je utvrđeno da je Stagiranin miletskog fizičara, uzimajući u obzir njegovo navodno stajalište da kamen ima dušu zato što pokreće željezo, situirao u kategoriju mislilaca koji su smatrali da je duša načelo kretanja. Autor je zatim konstatirao da je mišljenje da je duša pomiješana u cjelini povezano s poznatom sintagmom koja se pripisuje Talesu: »sve je puno bogova«. Ako se ove formulacije povežu s izjavama o kamenu magnetu i jantaru, onda se dobiva mogući zaključak da je, po Milećaninu, sve oduševljeno, tj. oživljeno, kako organski tako i neorganski dijelovi kozmosa. Konačno, ako ovi stavovi jesu autentično Talesovi, onda je on »rodonačelnik (…) filozofije« i zbog toga što govori o jednosti čitave stvarnosti, odnosno zato što se na ovaj način vitalistički ustanovljuje jedinstvo cjeline svega.The paper analyses Thales’ concept of soul, primarily based on Aristotle’s main insights and by consulting relevant doxographical accounts. The study has shown that the Stagirite classified the Milesian physicist, while taking into account his alleged view that the stone has a soul in it because it moves iron, in the category of thinkers who believed that soul is the cause of motion. The author, then, concludes that the view that soul is intermingled in the whole is related to the famous phrase attributed to Thales according to which “all things are full of gods”. If we connect these formulations with statements about the lodestone and amber, then we arrive to a possible conclusion that, according to the Milesian, all things are ensouled, i.e. alive, both organic and inorganic parts of the cosmos. Finally, if these are authentic Thales’s views, then he is “the founder of (…) philosophy”, because he talks about the unity of the entire reality, and because in this way the unity of wholeness is vitalistically established

Studi Komparatif Teori Air Thales Dengan Teori Air Dalam Konsep Al-qur’an
No full textIde awal penulisan karya tulis ini berawal dari kegelisahan penulis untuk menemukan jawaban adakah benang merah yang menghubungkan atau keterkaitan dan keselarasan antara filsafat Yunani Kuno dan ajaran Islam, terfokus pada pembahasan mengenai teori air yang dikemukakan Thales sang pelopor Filsafat Yunani kuno di abad ke 6 SM apakah selaras dengan teori air yang terdapat pada Al-Qur’an yang diturunkan pada Nabi Muhammad SAW. pada kisaran aban 6-7 M. Penelitian maupun pembahasan mengenai Filsafat Yunani kuno terutama pemikiran tentang Thales saya kira sudah banyak dan sering kita jumpai, akan tetapi penulis menemukan celah yang belum dibahas yaitu adakah keselarasan dari dua sudut pandang yang tampaknya berbeda tersebut yang mana filsafat berpedoman pada akal rasional sedang ajaran Islam bepedoman pada wahyu, maka pada penelitian ini penulis telah menemukan titik temu persamaan maupun perbedaan yang akan saya uraikan dibawah ini. Pada penelitian ini penulis menggunakan metode analisis komparatif deskriptif dan meneliti berbagai macam sumber yang terkait, semoga bermanfaat untuk para pembaca.
The initial idea for writing this paper originated from the author's anxiety to find an answer to whether there was a common thread that connected or relatedness and harmony between Ancient Greek philosophy and Islamic teachings, focused on a discussion of the theory of water put forward by Thales, the pioneer of ancient Greek philosophy in the 6th century BC. in line with the theory of water contained in the Qur'an which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad SAW. in the mid 6-7 AD range. I think we have encountered a lot of research and discussions about ancient Greek philosophy, especially thoughts about Thales, but the author found a gap that has not been discussed, namely whether there is harmony between these two seemingly different points of view, which is philosophy. is guided by rational reason while Islamic teachings are guided by revelation, so in this research the author has found common points of similarities and differences which I will explain below. In this research the author uses a descriptive comparative analysis method and examines various related sources, hopefully it will be useful for reader

Thales of Miletus, Archimedes and the Solar Eclipses on the Antikythera Mechanism
No full textThales of Miletus (640?-546 BC) is famous for his prediction of the total solar eclipse in 585 BC. In this paper, the author demonstrate how Thales may have used the same principle for prediction of solar eclipses as that used on the Antikythera Mechanism. At the SEAC conference in Alexandria in 2009, the author presented the paper “Ten solar eclipses show that the Antikythera Mechanism was constructed for use on Sicily.” The best defined series of exeligmos cycles started in 243 BC during the lifetime of Archimedes (287-212 BC) from Syracuse. The inscriptions on the Antikythera Mechanism were made in 100-150 BC and the last useful exeligmos started in 134 BC. The theory for the motion of the moon was from Hipparchus (ca 190-125 BC). A more complete investigation of the solar eclipses on the Antikythera Mechanism reveals that the first month in the first saros cycle started with the first new moon after the winter solstice in 542 BC. Four solar eclipses 537-528 BC, from the first saros cycle, and three one exeligmos cycle later, 487-478 BC, are preserved and may have been recorded in Croton by Pythagoras (ca 575-495 BC) and his school

O Cálculo no livro Matemática para o Ensino Secundário de Thales de Faria Mello Carvalho (1915-1961)
No full textIn this work is it presented a historical research on the approach to fundamental
concepts in the teaching of Differential and Integral Calculus (CDI) – function,
limit, continuity, derivative and integral, in secondary education in the 1940s,
using the textbook Mathematics for Classics and Scientific courses, by Brazilian
author Thales de Faria Mello Carvalho, as its main analytical support. Through
qualitative research, we adopted documentary analysis as a methodological
horizon, with our main source of research being the book, and as a procedure for
classifying and organizing the data for our analysis we chose the categorization
method. In this way, we seek, in addition to analyzing the presentation of the
fundamental concepts for teaching CDI, to identify and observe the exercises
indicated in the book, and subsequently to outline a biography of the author
Thales de Faria Mello Carvalho. To this end, a survey of research was carried
out that addressed analyzes in textbooks and the CDI, we found support in the
studies of Raad (2012) and authors such as Chervel (1990), Ludke and André
(2018), Choppin (2004,2012), Bloch (2001) and Duval (2012) which served as
theoretical references. The question that directs our investigation is: How the
fundamental concepts of Differential and Integral Calculus are proposed in the
book Mathematics for Classical and Scientific Courses, authored by Thales de
Faria Mello Carvalho? We conclude that the author approached each content in
a mixed way, observing the presence of arithmetic examples, symbols, different
semiotic representations, and the mention of important mathematicians. The
abundant number of exercises and definitions, accompanied by exemplifications
for the most part, characterize the work as suitable for secondary education at
the time. The work is in accordance with the official mathematics programs of the
time.Neste trabalho apresenta-se uma pesquisa histórica sobre a abordagem de

RANCANGAN PROTOTYPE MONITORING NOTIFICATION ALARM PADA PERALATAN NAVIGASI MERK THALES
No full textAbstrak. Pada pelaksanaan penelitian ini penulis dihadapkan dengan permasalahan yang terjadi pada fasilitas monitoring navigasi penerbangan yaitu ADRACS pada system ILS merk Thales, dimana teknisi sering menerima laporan terlebih dahulu dari Air Traffic Control (ATC) yang mendapat informasi dari pilot bahwa Instrument Landing System (ILS) mengalami masalah. Kondisi ini terjadi karena Peralatan Remote Control Monitoring System (RCMS) dari Instrument Landing System (ILS) berada di ruang teknisi. Ketika teknisi tidak berada di ruangan tersebut, terutama saat sedang bekerja di lokasi lain, mereka tidak mendapatkan notifikasi langsung jika kondisi ILS terjadi alarm. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Research and Development. Tindakan penyelesaian pada permasalahan ini yaitu dengan membuat suatu software yang dapat memberikan informasi secara fleksibel dan real time kepada para teknisi dimanapun berada, dengan harapan teknisi mampu mengetahui lebih dahulu jika peralatan mengalami alarm yang dapat meningkatkan efektifitas perbaikan dan perawatan peralatan navigasi penerbangan.Abstract. In the course of this research, the author encountered issues with the monitoring facility of the flight navigation, specifically the ADRACS in the Thales ILS system. Technicians often receive reports from Air Traffic Control (ATC) first, who in turn receive information from pilots indicating problems with the Instrument Landing System (ILS). This situation arises due to the Remote Control Monitoring System (RCMS) equipment for the ILS being located in the technician's room. When technicians are not present in the room, particularly when they are working elsewhere, they do not receive direct notifications if the ILS system alarms. This study employs the Research and Development method. The solution to this issue involves developing software capable of providing flexible and real-time information to technicians wherever they may be. The aim is for technicians to be informed promptly if equipment alarms occur, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of navigation equipment maintenance and repai
As Elites de cor: Thales de Azevedo and the UNESCO race relations project in Brazil
No full textEste artigo tem por objetivo abordar a participação de Thales de Azevedo no ciclo de pesquisas sobre as relações raciais no Brasil, patrocinado pela UNESCO no início da década de 1950, e, sobretudo, abordar sua investigação que resultou no livro As Elites de Cor: um estudo de ascensão social. Em seu estudo, o processo de modernização da sociedade baiana, os desafios à tradição e a dinâmica da mobilidade social são concebidos como potenciais geradores de conflito racial. Esses resultados revelam uma densa pesquisa socioantropológica das relações entre negros, mulatos e brancos em Salvador, ainda que, por vezes, coloquem em tensão as linhas interpretativas mais gerais de seu trabalho sobre a alegada convivência racial harmônica. Inicialmente o artigo versa sobre a trajetória de Thales de Azevedo da medicina social à antropologia. A segunda parte do texto se atém ao contexto de produção da investigação e a análise de “As Elites de Cor”. Diferente da visão comumente aceita de que a intenção do projeto UNESCO de relações raciais era demonstrar que o Brasil representava uma espécie de paraíso racial, o estudo socioantropológico de Thales de Azevedo evidencia que, desde o início do ciclo de pesquisas da UNESCO, houve um interesse da instituição em abordar as desigualdades sociorraciais no Brasil. A investigação da dinâmica da ascensão social das pessoas de cor foi um importante desafio assumido pela agência internacional para tornar inteligíveis as assimetrias raciais.The article addresses anthropologist Thales de Azevedo’s participation in the early
1950s cycle of research on race relations in Brazil sponsored by UNESCO, particularly
the studies behind his book As Elites de Cor: um estudo de ascensão social.
In Azevedo’s book, the process of modernization, challenges to tradition, and the
dynamics of social mobility in Bahia society are framed as potential triggers of racial
conflict. This perspective stands in contrast with the positive view of alleged
harmonious racial coexistence that the author voices in these same pages. After first
examining Azevedo’s shift from social scientist of social medicine to anthropology,
the article explores the context in which he conducted his study and analyses As
Elites de Cor. While it is often held that the aim of the UNESCO race relations project
was to show that Brazil represented a kind of racial paradise, Azevedo’s socio-
-anthropological study made it clear that, right from the outset of the research, the
international agency was interested in probing Brazil’s social and racial inequalities.
UNESCO faced the important challenge of investigating the social mobility dynamics
concerning persons of color in order to elucidate racial asymmetries
