Your Scientific Legacy
Gennaro reflects on the various reasons why authors write. Most authors express their frustrations on the difficulties in finding the time, the right words and the motivation to write. While most authors don't agree that writing is fun, clearly they benefit from it. Writing for most authors help them in advancing their academic careers and it is their ethical obligation to disseminate whatever knowledge they have.
Health care practices in ancient Greece: The Hippocratic ideal
Asclepius and Hippocrates focused medical practice on the natural approach and treatment of diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding the patient's health, independence of mind, and the need for harmony between the individual, social and natural environment, as reflected in the Hippocratic Oath. The aim of this study was to present the philosophy of care provision in ancient Greece and to highlight the influence of the Hippocratic ideal in modern health care practices. A literature review was carried out using browser methods in international databases. According to the literature, \"healthy mind in a healthy body\" was the main component of the Hippocratic philosophy. Three main categories were observed in the Hippocratic provision of care: health promotion, interventions on trauma care, and mental care and art therapy interventions. Health promotion included physical activity as an essential part of physical and mental health, and emphasized the importance of nutrition to improve performance in the Olympic Games. Interventions on trauma care included surgical practices developed by Hippocrates, mainly due to the frequent wars in ancient Greece. Mental care and art therapy interventions were in accordance with the first classification of mental disorders, which was proposed by Hippocrates. In this category music and drama were used as management tools in the treatment of illness and in the improvement of human behavior. The role of Asclepieion of Kos was highlighted which clearly indicates a holistic health care model in care provision. Finally, all practices regarded detailed recordings and evaluation of information within the guidelines. The Hippocratic philosophy on health care provision focused on the holistic health care model, applying standards and ethical rules that are still valid today.
A Study on UGC-CARE Journals of Library and Information Science
The University Grants Commission has published the list of CARE journals of all disciplines such as Science, Social Science and Arts & Humanities. The subject Library & Information Science has also been included in the CARE list under Social Science stream. The study measures information statistically or mathematically. These CARE list of journals are analyzed from different perspectives by giving various tables highlighting different aspects of informetric measurement.
Stoicism and emotion
On the surface, stoicism and emotion seem like contradictory terms. Yet the Stoic philosophers of ancient Greece and Rome were deeply interested in the emotions, which they understood as complex judgments about what we regard as valuable in our surroundings. Stoicism and Emotion shows that they did not simply advocate an across-the-board suppression of feeling, as stoicism implies in today’s English, but instead conducted a searching examination of these powerful psychological responses, seeking to understand what attitude toward them expresses the deepest respect for human potential. In this elegant and clearly written work, Margaret Graver gives a compelling new interpretation of the Stoic position. Drawing on a vast range of ancient sources, she argues that the chief demand of Stoic ethics is not that we should suppress or deny our feelings, but that we should perfect the rational mind at the core of every human being. Like all our judgments, the Stoics believed, our affective responses can be either true or false and right or wrong, and we must assume responsibility for them. Without glossing over the difficulties, Graver also shows how the Stoics dealt with those questions that seem to present problems for their theory: the physiological basis of affective responses, the phenomenon of being carried away by one’s emotions, the occurrence of involuntary feelings and the disordered behaviors of mental illness. Ultimately revealing the deeper motivations of Stoic philosophy, Stoicism and Emotion uncovers the sources of its broad appeal in the ancient world and illuminates its surprising relevance to our own.
A PRELIMINARY INDEX TO PHILO’S NON–BIBLICAL CITATIONS AND ALLUSIONS
The purpose of this index is to provide some indication of the non–biblical sources that Philo quotes or alludes to in his works. Those references that are explicit quotations of the source are marked by an asterisk (*), while the majority are more subtle allusions or echoes. The index is reasonably complete as a record of quotations, though its reckoning of allusions could doubtless be significantly expanded. The difference between a quotation, an allusion, and an echo is, of course, a matter of ongoing debate in current discussion. I have operated on the basis of a generous conception of
