Thales of Miletus is often called the first philosopher, but his student, Anaximander, achieved something arguably more profound. In this video, we explore the mind of the 6th-century BCE thinker who first dared to suggest that the Earth floats in space supported by nothing.
We move beyond random trivia to a substantive analysis of his surviving concepts. Anaximander’s move from mythos to logos marks the birth of abstract thought and the scientific method.
In this video, we cover:
The Critique of Thales: Why water cannot be the arche (source) of the universe.
The Apeiron: Understanding the concept of "The Boundless" or "Infinite."
Cosmic Equilibrium: How time acts as a judge in the cycle of creation and destruction.
The First Map: The cylindrical Earth and the geometry of the cosmos.
Proto-Evolution: His startling theory that humans originated from fish-like ancestors.
Join us for a deep dive into the Milesian School and the origins of Western philosophy.
