Key Topics in Heraclitus
1. Heraclitus' Style
Heraclitus is notorious for his "obscure" and distinctive style. Many readers seem to love it or hate it. Heraclitus' stylistic devices include metaphor, simile, aphorism, pun, word play, allusion, riddles, rhythm, and sound. Examples of puns and word plays: Fr. 65, p. 30 plays upon the word bios (life), accent on the first syllable, and bios (bow), accent on the second syllable. Fr. 48, p. 31 plays upon the phrases "xun noi" (with nous or intelligence) and "xunoi" (in common). Fr. 23, -. 27 plays upon the term "haptetai" which can mean "touch" or "kindle" as in "kindling a light". Some readers, like Jonathan Barnes, seem to suggest that Heraclitus' seemingly oracular sayings simply paper over his out-and-out contradictions. In short, Heraclitus is "fundamentally inconsistent". For an interesting discussion of whether Barnes' charge can be answered, see Timm Triplett, "Barnes on Heraclitus and the Unity of Opposites," Ancient Philosophy 6 , pp. 15-23.

Heracleitus Greek philosopher also spelled Heraclitus
Main
born c. BC , Ephesus, in Anatolia died c. Greek philosopher remembered for his cosmology, in which fire forms the basic material principle of an orderly universe. Little is known about his life, and the one book he apparently wrote is lost. His views survive in the short fragments quoted and attributed to him by later authors. Though he was primarily concerned with explanations of the world around him, Heracleitus also stressed the need for men to live together in social harmony. He complained that most men failed to comprehend the logos Heracleitus was unpopular in his time and was frequently scorned by later biographers. His primary contribution lies in his apprehension of the formal unity of the world of experience.

    Second twilight.
    Night that deepens into dream.
    Purification, forgetfulness.
    First twilight.
    Morning that once was dawn.
    Day that was morning.
    Overflowing day that will be a spent evening.
    Second twilight.
    Night, the other costume of time.
    Purification, forgetfulness.
    First twilight. . . . In the dawn, the secret anguish of the Ephesian. What weave is this of will be, is, and was? What river lies under the Ganges? What river has no source? What river drags along mythologies and swords? Sleeping is useless. Through the dream, through the desert, through the cellar, the river carries me, and I am the river. I was made of delicate substance, mysterious time. Perhaps the source is within me. Perhaps the days emerge, fatal and illusory, from my shadow.

RV Heraclitus
The R/V Heraclitus (named after the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus) is an 84 ft, ferro-cement, Chinese junk designed and built by the Institute of Ecotechnics (UK), and outfitted as an ocean-going research vessel. In March 1975, the ship was launched in Oakland, California and set sail under the Golden Gate Bridge on her maiden voyage. Since that time, RV Heraclitus has traveled over 200,000 nautical miles, undertaking a series of voyages and expeditions to some of the most challenging, remote and exotic places on Earth - from the upper reaches of the Amazon River to the frozen waters of the Antarctic to the coral reefs spanning the tropical waters of the world’s oceans.
RV Heraclitus was chartered by the Planetary Coral Reef Foundation, www.pcrf.org , from 1991 to 2006 as its research vessel to study the world’s coral reefs. RV Heraclitus offers an innovative seamanship, adventure, and coral reef field research educational program and to date is the only ship continually out in the field studying and monitoring coral reefs on a planetary basis.

Heraclitus
Beware of "Moreness"
It's been a while since we've checked in with Heraclitus (the ancient Greek philosopher who was the world's first creativity teacher). His words of wisdom for us today are: "The way up and the way down
are one and the same."
What does this mean? Well, it's pretty enigmatic. But I think there's a creative strategy implicit in this insight, and I interpret it to be: "Beware of Moreness." When things are made larger , they take on a complex, new life of their own, and unexpected — even undesirable — things can happen. Here's an example. Let's say that you have a recipe for strawberry shortcake that serves four people One day you invite over seven friends to eat this desert. To make it, you simply double the recipe's proportions. On another occasion, you make it only for yourself and a friend, and you halve the proportions. Now, let's suppose that you invite 50,000 people over for strawberry shortcake. At this point, the biggest challenges confronting you have nothing to do with the recipe . These include buying strawberries on the commodities market, making deals with the teamsters to deliver enough cream, traffic-flow coordination, and large-scale renting of tables, chairs, bowls, and spoons.

Philosophy During the Tragic Age of the Greeks
Translated by Maximillian A. Mügge
Revised by Charles S. Taylor
Preface
(Probably 1874)
IF we know the aims of humans who are strangers to us, it is sufficient for us to approve of or condemn them as wholes. Those who stand nearer to us we judge according to the means by which they further their aims; we often disapprove of their aims, but love them for the sake of their means and the style of their volition. Now philosophical systems are absolutely true only to their founders, to all later philosophers they are usually one big mistake, and to feebler minds a sum of mistakes and truths; at any rate if regarded as highest aim they are an error, and in so far reprehensible. Therefore many disapprove of all philosophers, because their aims are not ours; they are those whom I called " strangers to us." Whoever on the contrary finds any pleasure at all in great humans finds pleasure also in such systems, be they ever so erroneous, for they all have in them one point which is irrefutable, a personal touch, and color; one can use them in order to form a picture of the philosopher, just as from a plant growing in a certain place one can form conclusions as to the soil. That mode of life, of viewing human affairs at any rate, has existed once and is therefore possible; the "system" is the growth in this soil or at least a part of this system....I narrate the history of those philosophers simplified: I shall bring into relief only

Heraclitus (fl. c.500 B.C.) Ancient Greek philosopher, perhaps best remembered for his famous poetic metaphor of the river - "no one steps into the same river twice". Heraclitus seems to have written only one work ( On Nature? ), which apparently consisted of series of epigrammatic remarks. The book was deposited in the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus. Although Heraclitus's book is lost, about 120 short fragments have survived in the texts of later authors, who quoted him, often in order to scorn his ideas. " The Ephesians deserve to have all their youth put to death, and all those who are younger still banished from their city, inasmuch as they have banished Hermodorus, the best man among them, saying, "Let no one of us be pre-eminently good; and if there be any such person, let him go to another city and another people." (from The Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers Little is know of Heraclitus's life. Due to his cryptic, oracular style he had a reputation for obscurity. Socrates complained that "it needs a sponge-diver to bring up the truth from those depths." Heraclitus was born in Ephesus in Ionia (western Asia Minor) into an influential family. His father, Bloson, was a member of the highest local aristocracy. His hereditary class privileges Heraclitus renounced in favor of his brother. Diogenes Laertios, who lived about seven centuries later, has in his

39. Heraclitus & Parmenides
A short article from 1998 by James Dye, contrasting these two thinkers.
http://www.soci.niu.edu/~phildept/Dye/Heraclitus&Parmenides.html
Heraclitus claims that sense perception alone cannot reveal the truth about things, for they are not really what they seem to be. Thought is required to reveal that what seems stable is really constantly changingthat what seems to be a thing is but a slice of a process. Heraclitus invents the distinction between appearance and reality . Perceptual objects are not the real entities constituting the natural world; they are only the ways those entities appear to us. Our perceptions are the effects of causes which we do not directly perceive and which we can know only by inference. (Does the image on the movie screen or the television monitor exist ? Is it a real thing in the world? Do we exist or are we more like a movie or a television programprocesses seeming to be entities only because of the abstractive character of our experience of ourselves?) Parmenides takes note of Heraclitus' observations about sense perception but disagrees that the mind could ever reconstruct the truth out of the sensory data. There is no one way our sensations can be manipulated to yield a single, coherent story about what really exits. Therefore any single way in which they are assembled will at best be an

Heraclitus was a contemporary of Pythagoras, Lao-tzu, Confucius, and Siddhartha, the Buddha; some say that the term "philosophy", love of wisdom, was first introduced by Pythagoras, who lived from approximately 580 BCE to 500 BCE. Pythagoras and his followers, the Pythagoreans, argued numbers to constitute the true nature of things and all relations to be numerical. Pythagoras is often regarded as the founder of modern mathematics and geometry. The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypothenuse (opposite side) is always equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. The Pythagoreans ... argued that earth was a sphere revolving around the sun in a predictable way. Source: optionality.net
