Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the extent of knowledge in various subjects in ancient times, particularly in Greece and Egypt, and compares it with the knowledge of the same subjects in modern times. The author argues that in some areas, such as oratory and poetry, the ancients achieved a level of excellence that has never been surpassed. In other areas, such as science and mathematics, the moderns have made significant advances beyond the ancients, due in large part to the development of new tools and techniques. The author also discusses the role of cultural and historical factors in the development of knowledge. He argues that the ancient Greeks' emphasis on reason and logic led them to make great strides in philosophy and mathematics, while the ancient Egyptians' focus on the supernatural led them to develop a sophisticated system of astrology and alchemy. Overall, this book provides a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of the development of knowledge throughout history. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science, philosophy, or culture.
