How refreshing! As a docent, I heard Hallett speak at the SAMA Roman Symposium in 2008. I must be so bold to express an open invitation to speak at the National Museum of Korea in Seoul, South Korea. There, I lectured on Egypt: the Great Civilization and helped the British Museum with the visiting Greek exhibition. Dr. Sunhee would have adored him!. The Hong Kong MofA director may open her doors to him as well. What a hypnotic dream.

The comparison to Raphael made me laugh more than a couple times, haha what the hell 😂😂

No drums! Oh my...!

A wonderful talk, a marvellous host, than you so much. ❤️

I aspire to be as high as Seth is here

Wonderful presentation. Thank you.

I love Hammershoi. He is Great. Fantastic. ❤❤❤❤

Thank you. I've been looking at reproductions of Chinese hanging scrolls but never really saw one until I watched this video. I wish there were thousands of videos like this. There should be one for each of the great works of art in the world.

👍

Worth watching. This is a very intelligent lecture on Michelangelo and his style of drawing. Whay does it take to draw lines on an empty sheet of paper? An artist like Michelangelo is able to create a master drawing with ink and quilll from his times with skill and artistry. Beautiful.

thanks,plz do timestamp s

Some scholars mark Pythagoras as a mathematicus himself. The evidence does not support this view. Pythagoras was not scientific until the second half of the 5th century. Pythagoras as mathematician is fiction. (Pg 192) Pg 102 Metaphysical Pythagoras is largely 4th century - scientific Pythagoras is not to be found before the 5th century: there remain the akousmata or sumbola. This goes back in nucleus to the time of Pythagoras himself - they consist of a number of aphorisms (What is the wisest of all? Number. Etc), citing The Presocratic Philosophers Jonathan Barnes Routledge 1979

Chronos was the Orphic name for, according to Pythagoras, the serpent psyche of the Universe, derived from "Time Unbounded" in Iranian Zurvan philosophy - Chronos Aion. Aion was the "procreative fluid with which psyche was identified, the spinal marrow believed to take serpent form." (Hamlet's Mill citing Onians). The classicist Richard Broxton Onians documents the Pythagoreans defining the heart as "the breath that was consciousness in the chest."

When Greek philosopher Pythagoras reached Egypt to enter a school - a secret esoteric school of mysticism - he was refused entry. And Pythagoras was one of the best minds ever produced. He could not understand it. He applied again and again, but was told that unless he goes through a particular training of fasting and breathing he cannot be allowed entry. Pythagoras is reported to have said: “I have come for knowledge, not for any sort of discipline.” But the school authorities said: “We cannot give you knowledge unless you are different. And really, we are not interested in knowledge at all; we are interested in the actual experience. No knowledge is knowledge unless it is lived and experienced. So you will have to go on a 40-day fast, continuously breathing in a certain manner, with a certain awareness on certain points.” (Note that he had the knowledge but not the experience - Blog author) There was no other way, so Pythagoras had to pass through this training. After 40 days of fasting and breathing, aware and attentive, he was allowed to enter the school. Pythagoras reportedly said: “You are not allowing Pythagoras in. I am a different man; I am reborn. You were right and I was wrong, because then, my whole standpoint was intellectual. Through this purification, my center of being has changed. From the intellect it has come down to the heart. Now I can feel things. Before this training I could only understand through the intellect, through the head. Now I can feel. Now truth is not a concept to me, but life. It is not going to be a philosophy, but rather, an experience - existential.”

Plato assumed "twoness" was the first "unit" as symmetry BEFORE number as order of counting in time!! Hence the Liar of the Lyre from Philolaus flipping his Lyre around to cover up the inherent asymmetry of time-frequency of Pythagoras! thanks

Units assume a physical origin of number! See Professors Charles Sayward and Philip Hugly, "Did the Greeks Discover the Irrational?" in the journal Philosophy, 1999 - the answer is NO!! hahaha

Nigel McGilchrist is a graduate of Oxford University and has lived and worked for most of his life in the Mediterranean world - Greece, Italy and Egypt - as an art historian, teaching and writing about its history and extraordinary cultural diversity. He has taught for universities in both America and in Italy, and is the author of an acclaimed series of books on the art and architecture of the Islands of the Aegean Sea. His most recent publication (2022) is a study of Pythagoras and his Age, entitled: When the Dog speaks, the Philosopher listens.

Thank You

so glad you continued on with a second cleaning! makes such a difference. What a beautiful painting. Love your passion, and envy your job!

It is scary to think that these people who look almost modern and particularly civilized with definite airs of wisdom and temperance if not for some big eyes open to see dangers coming from far were followed by centuries of suppression of the individual where people were represented as identical from each other in an abstracted way where only clothes differentiated social ranks in paintings.

He used the word intriguing . I was fascinated when I pulled a book from the library shelf of the Roman mummy portraits. I like to practice portraiture on cheap cardboard cheap brushes from Walmarp and acrylic paints I'm very passionate dong this as a hobb y encaustic seems nteresting . I saw samples in the local art supply store. In the future l'd like giving it a try.❤

Superb!

Just finished the novel...Love it like all the other work😍 by TC Boyle.

This is a lecture of an exceptional quality, bravo.

great lecture! thankyou!

Glorious presentation of a delightful work. Thank you!

Wow, what an excellent contextualization of the casta paintings. I used this in our homeschool study of the aftermath of the conquest of Mexico, to enhance our study of American history, and contrast the (minimal) mobility of racial minorities in New Spain with the absolute fossilization of social status in the American colonies/United States. What a privilege to be able to hear Professor Sifford's lecture! We should all be so fortunate to have such an excellent teacher. Thank you!

29:09 "I chose not to include a picture of the tjurunga in this PowerPoint because they are sacred and secret objects that should only be seen by a few initiated men of a particular Aboriginal tribe but I can describe them to you" This is crazy. The idea that _other people_ should be bound by crazy religious ideas of a group is completely insane. Also, "indigenous knowledge" is worthless gobbledygook.

Even a casual glance at Dan Hicks' social media shows you that you're dealing with a deeply disturbed individual: only equally disturbed people would even consider taking his advice on anything, let alone restitution. Just no.

Very, very interesting!!!

California artist, Isabel Hunter, Tonalist painter, is my great great aunt. Curious if Mary has researched her. Mary Hunter, Carmel gallerist, was my grandfather’s second wife. I wonder if we could even be related. So glad to see this subject delved into. Nice work Mary.
