Abstract:
The article contains a review of the book “History of Greek Philosophy” by William Guthrie. It is argued that the true history of philosophy is the recreation of the ideas of the past in a modern context, their actualization by inscribing them as elements into a larger whole or by means of a hermeneutic dialogue aimed at obtaining truth. It is precisely an example of hermeneutic dialogue that Guthrie's work is. The third volume of Guthrie's six-volume study on the Sophists and Socrates was chosen as the main text under review. It is shown that Guthrie was able to actualize the relativistic concepts of the sophists and demonstrate their connection with the teachings and personality of Socrates, who, thanks to his concept of inductive search for definitions of concepts, became a key figure on the path of creating the classical philosophical systems of Plato and Aristotle: theories of universal eidos and forms.

In the course of his talk on Eros, the first in theSymposium, Phaedrus embarks on a demonstration of the ability of love to prompt people to noble and courageous deeds. Although the context of the discussion of love in theSymposiumis primarily homosexual, “the most remarkable feature” of Phaedrus's speech, as William K. C. Guthrie puts it, is that the exemplary figure illustrating his thesis is a woman. Alcestis, the wife of Admetus king of Therae, was the only one among her husband's relatives who volunteered to die in his stead:

Abstract:
This article discusses the close relationship that developed during the 1850s and 1860s between Hermann von Helmholtz (1821–94), one of the leading German scientists during the second half of the nineteenth century, and the British scientific elite generally. It focuses especially on the importance of the law of conservation of energy to both sides of that relationship as the law emerged and became popularized. In presenting this Anglo-German relationship, the article relates Helmholtz's friendships or acquaintanceships with numerous members of the British elite, including William Thomson, John Tyndall, Henry Enfield Roscoe, Michael Faraday, Edward Sabine, Henry Bence Jones, George Gabriel Stokes, James Clerk Maxwell, Peter Guthrie Tait, George Biddell Airy and James Thomson. It suggests that the building of these social relationships helped create a sense of trust between Helmholtz and the British elite that, in turn, eased the revision of the understanding of the law of conservation of force into that of energy and consolidated its acceptance, and that laid the personal groundwork for Helmholtz's future promotion of Maxwell's electromagnetic theory in Germany and for Anglo-German agreements in electrical metrology.

Petrunić, Josipa Gordana. "Quaternion engagements and terrains of knowledge (1858-1880) : a comparative social history of Peter Guthrie Tait and William Kingdon Clifford's uses of quaternions." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/25078.

Full text
Abstract:
Historical studies of quaternion mathematics have usually placed Sir William Rowan Hamilton's "discovery" of quaternions within the context of the history of modern vector analysis. Exemplary of this technique is the seminal study A History of Vector Analysis by Michael Crowe (1967), in which Hamilton's development of quaternions is seen as an important precursor to the eventual development of contemporary vector calculus. Within Crowe's account, the reader also finds the story of two transitional figures: Peter Guthrie Tait (1831-1901) and William Kingdon Clifford (1845- 1879). Tait is described as a propagator of Hamiltonian methods - someone who wrote about them more succinctly than did Hamilton, and someone who applied them to various topical problems in dynamics. Meanwhile, Clifford is described as a secondary, minor figure - a transitional character whose development of bi-quaternions figures not at all in Crowe's historiography. This thesis redresses those categorizations by effectively "stopping the clock" at 1880, before the "modern" conception of vector analysis had emerged. Following a brief account of the state of British mathematics and science in the first half of the century (1800-1850), the present study focuses on the motivations behind Tait and Clifford's respective engagements with and uses of quaternion mathematics in the second half of the 19th-century. Using the analytical metaphor of "terrains of knowledge" (which is inspired in part by the Wittgensteinian metaphor of language games, and the Strong Program account of finitism in scientific knowledge), I aim to describe the environments - philosophical, institutional, political, and religious - within which Tait and Clifford worked. By describing those "terrains of knowledge", the historian is able to explain why Tait and Clifford, two actors who lived in a similar time and similar place, engaged with the conceptual artifacts of "quaternions" in divergent ways. In the case of Tait, the crucial "terrains of knowledge" to consider in identifying the conceptual environment requisite for him to have used quaternions in the manner that he did includes Cambridge and Belfast mathematics, the University of Edinburgh as an institution in flux (1840-1870), the "science of energy" (1850-1870), and Presbyterian politics and Tait's attack on secularism. In Clifford's case, the salient "terrains of knowledge" include the University of Cambridge and the morphing of symbolical algebra (1860-1870), non-Euclidean geometries in Britain, Clifford's Darwinism, and University College, London as a secularist urban educational institution. When combined, these terrains constitute the varied intellectual environments within which each actor engaged with "quaternion" mathematics, and within which each actor found the resources needed to justify and render meaningful his respective view of that particular concept.

Spoor, Freya Elisabeth. "The revival of pastel in late nineteenth-century Britain : the transience of a modern medium." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/25820.

Full text
Abstract:
In the late nineteenth century, the use of pastels underwent a revival and many young British artists adopted the medium as a new means of expression. This surge in popularity was marked by three exhibitions dedicated to contemporary works in pastel held at the Grosvenor Gallery in London between 1888 and 1890. These shows attracted over three hundred participants and culminated in the formation of the Society of British Pastellists in 1890, which counted amongst its eminent members William Stott of Oldham (1857-1900), James Guthrie (1859-1930), George Clausen (1852-1944) and Elizabeth Armstrong (1859-1912). Despite its auspicious beginnings this movement was short-lived and the society disbanded the following year. This has caused scholars to treat the use of pastel by British artists as just a passing fad in the oeuvres of individual artists and in studies of contemporary stylistic trends. Yet, the varying involvement of these four artists with the most pioneering art movements in Britain would suggest that this medium formed an intrinsic part of their move towards a modern aesthetic. Thus, the diverse approaches of these artists will form a prism through which to examine the importance of materiality for the development of new subject matter and stylistic innovations. This study will involve not only a consideration of the formal properties of these works but also the culture in which they were produced, exhibited and critically received. Indeed, it is hoped that by situating these pastels within a wider cultural context that a further understanding of their long-term significance in the canon of modern art in Britain can be achieved. In this way, I believe that this study will contribute towards a new position for pastel as a modern medium that was essential for the invention of new artistic practices at this time.

Lewis, Elizabeth Faith. "Peter Guthrie Tait : new insights into aspects of his life and work : and associated topics in the history of mathematics." Thesis, University of St Andrews, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/10023/6330.

Full text
Abstract:
In this thesis I present new insights into aspects of Peter Guthrie Tait's life and work, derived principally from largely-unexplored primary source material: Tait's scrapbook, the Tait–Maxwell school-book and Tait's pocket notebook. By way of associated historical insights, I also come to discuss the innovative and far-reaching mathematics of the elusive Frenchman, C.-V. Mourey. P. G. Tait (1831–1901) F.R.S.E., Professor of Mathematics at the Queen's College, Belfast (1854–1860) and of Natural Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh (1860–1901), was one of the leading physicists and mathematicians in Europe in the nineteenth century. His expertise encompassed the breadth of physical science and mathematics. However, since the nineteenth century he has been unfortunately overlooked—overshadowed, perhaps, by the brilliance of his personal friends, James Clerk Maxwell (1831–1879), Sir William Rowan Hamilton (1805–1865) and William Thomson (1824–1907), later Lord Kelvin. Here I present the results of extensive research into the Tait family history. I explore the spiritual aspect of Tait's life in connection with The Unseen Universe (1875) which Tait co-authored with Balfour Stewart (1828–1887). I also reveal Tait's surprising involvement in statistics and give an account of his introduction to complex numbers, as a schoolboy at the Edinburgh Academy. A highlight of the thesis is a re-evaluation of C.-V. Mourey's 1828 work, La Vraie Théorie des quantités négatives et des quantités prétendues imaginaires, which I consider from the perspective of algebraic reform. The thesis also contains: (i) a transcription of an unpublished paper by Hamilton on the fundamental theorem of algebra which was inspired by Mourey and (ii) new biographical information on Mourey.

Abstract:
This thesis discusses contemporary Scottish crime fiction in light of its transatlantic contexts. It argues that, despite participating in a globalized popular genre, examples of Scottish crime fiction nevertheless meaningfully intervene in notions of Scottishness. The first chapter examines Scottish appropriations of the hard-boiled mode in the work of William McIlvanney, Ian Rankin, and Irvine Welsh, using their representation of traditional masculinity as an index for wider concerns about community, class, and violence. The second chapter examines examples of Scottish crime fiction that exploit the baroque aesthetics of gothic and noir fiction as a means of dealing with the same socio-political contexts. It argues that the work of Iain Banks and Louise Welsh draws upon a tradition of distinctively Scottish gothic in order to articulate concerns about the re-incursion of barbarism within contemporary civilized societies. The third chapter examines the parodic, carnivalesque aspects of contemporary Scottish crime fiction in the work of Christopher Brookmyre and Allan Guthrie. It argues that the structure of parody replicates the structure of genre, meaning that the parodic examples dramatize the textual processes at work in more central examples of Scottish crime fiction. The fourth chapter focuses on examples of Scottish crime fiction that participate in the culturally English golden-age and soft-boiled traditions. Unpacking the darker, more ambivalent aspects of these apparently cosy and genteel traditions, this final chapter argues that the novels of M. C. Beaton and Kate Atkinson obliquely refract the particularly Scottish concerns about modernity that the more central examples more openly express.

Abstract:
Chapter 6 describes how federal courts, by sanctioning public regulation, saved private education from outright abolition. In 1922 voters in Oregon approved an initiative, aimed at Catholics, that criminalized attendance in private schools. The National Catholic Welfare Conference challenged the law’s constitutionality and, in Pierce v. Society of Sisters (1925), the Supreme Court struck it down. Throughout the legal proceedings, Catholic lawyers, led by William D. Guthrie, argued that abolishing private schools was unnecessary because states routinely exercised broad powers of regulation. The Court agreed, asserting that because Oregon possessed significant authority to supervise and manage private schools, states could not legally strip them of their property through abolition. While the case later became a pillar for the constitutional right to privacy, the ruling represented a strong assertion of public authority. Public regulation aided rather than hindered the development of private schooling in the United States.

Abstract:
The middle years of the eighteenth century saw a shift in the historiography of commerce as Enlightenment-era historians became increasingly preoccupied with tracing processes of long-term economic change. As a result, individual incidents in England’s economic past came to be conceived not just as evidence of monarchical prudence or virtue, but rather as sections in a narrative of national commercial development. Chapter eight addresses the contribution to this approach made by William Guthrie in his General History of England (1744–51). The first part of the discussion explores the Tacitean and Harringtonian approaches to history that Guthrie employed when working as a political journalist in the 1740s. Part two looks at how these ideas shaped his historical writing.
