Steven, list, Steven, if I tried to do that, I might as well start with the Ancient philosophers and mathematicians and move my way up; and I don't see you trying to champion the cause of Euclid. In any case, my post is not a published work in scholarship; it's an attempt to discuss the work. In the work itself, credit is given where it should be. My aim was to discuss the ideas, which are partly Benjamin's, partly Charles's, and partly Frederik's. Since it is assumed that participants have read, or are reading, the book, and there is quite a lot going on in the chapter, I aimed to grasp what is most essential and (re)present it.
But I appreciate your point about Benjamin's contributions, along with Euclid's. If Benjamin's take on these ideas is of some further relevance for the subject of the chapter, please continue and communicate the relevance for diagrammatic experimentation. -- Franklin On Sun, Apr 19, 2015 at 4:38 PM, Steven Ericsson-Zenith <ste...@iase.us> wrote: > > No mention of Benjamin is made in your original post and it reads as if > all from Charles, giving new readers especially a false idea concerning his > contributions.
