The result is a brilliant, bizarre, and surreal cosmos - the product of the rational thinking of a creator god and his astral assistants, and of purely mechanistic causes based on the behaviour of the four elements. At times dazzlingly clear, at times intriguingly opaque, this was state-of-the-art science in the middle of the fourth century BC. The world is presented as a battlefield of forces that are unified only by the will of God, who had to do the best he could with recalcitrant building materials"--Page 4 of cover. 650 0 Cosmology |vEarly works to 1800. 650 0 Atlantis (Legendary place) 650 6 Cosmologie |vOuvrages avant 1800. 650 6 Atlantide (Lieu imaginaire) 650 7 Atlantis (Legendary place) |2fast 650 7 Cosmology |2fast 650 7 Kosmogonie |2gnd 650 7 Cosmology |vEarly works to 1800. |2nli 650 7 Atlantis (Legendary place) |2nli 651 7 Atlantis |2gnd 651 7 Griechenland |gAltertum |2gnd 655 4 Quelle. 655 7 Early works |2fast 600 07 Plato. |2nli 776 08 |iOnline version:Plato. |sTimaeus.
