I was handed the key to this room and got to unlock the door not long ago, early in the morning on a special tour with just a few of us and the keepers of the keys. I lingered and had the room to myself. Imagine the solitude with these magnificent works of art in the silence of early dawn; think about the centuries and the history these rooms have seen. It was overwhelming.

Yes, wonderful videos, Algrim. As a former philosophy professor I would explain "The School of Athens" to my Introduction to Philosophy students. Now in the age of multimedia instruction (I did that for an Ethics course for Nurses) I used multimedia movies linked to my textbook Ethics at the Movies..... But this Kahn Academy video explains the School of Athens so well, I could have used it.

A good dissication of the work from Cezzane, what is good to have a look at are the divisions of ideas within the spheres of knowledge and the way they are represented. As a thinker i find it amusing to look at those "Black and White"(clear separation) concepts.
@claytonscampbell5 жыл бұрын
It would be interesting to bring into the conversation the cartoon that is in the museum in Milan for the fresco, which is in some ways even more powerful than the fresco. It shows Raphael's process of developing the overall pictorial concept, and is a fascinating work, feeling as contemporary as anything hanging in galleries today.

Plato points to an intermediate realm of 'Forms' between man and the 'Form of the Good'. This (rather than Aristotle's 'Great Chain of Being') is the pattern of the 'Disputa' where 1. the realm of Forms becomes the Christian 'cloud of witnesses' [Heb12v1] - and 2. the Form of the Good is identified as the realm of God the Father.

@PILOSOPAUL7 жыл бұрын
Yes, I've read in a Renaissance handbook that Da Vinci was Raphael's inspiration for Plato, apart from Da Vinci's other worldly way of thinking, the iconic hand pointing upward is an allusion to Da Vinci's unusual panting of hands (see the painting St. John the Baptist and sketch Holy Family with St. John) encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT2CYTtA2pl-D7i7fUpQXe4U7CYS2-_OFnKU7a4dfgP9CB99dMeGg phillipkay.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/1-mary-and-anne-jesus-and-john.jpg

Drawing from ancient pagan philosophers was not unique to Renaissance in Catholicism. Catholic tradition had at that time a long history of drawing influences from ancient pagan philosophers, especially from Plato (popularized by St. Augustine) and Aristotle (popularized by St. Thomas Aquinas). Especially during the Middle Ages when scholasticism was at the rise with it's concept of combining faith and reason. St. Thomas Aquinas calls Aristotle "The Philosopher" and didn't hesitate to openly draw some of his ideas not just from numerous Christian thinkers, but also from pagan, Jewish (Maimonides) or Muslim (Avicenna, Averroes) philosophers.

Plato and Aristotle have just come from a tennis match and you can see that they are in dispute about a key point which Aristotle believes to have been "in" while Plato is calling it "out". They must have bet something on the outcome.

*_Some say that the man in green and white pointing at Diogenes on the stairs is Alexander III of Macedon. I would like to build on that argument and state that the man Alexander is yelling at is his father Philip the cyclops. That's why you only see one eye. Alexander was not a great thinker like many in the painting and therefore his face is not shown but he is there may be as satire showing a spoiled boy reacting to a man who does not care about his riches and success and so the boy yells at his father, telling him that the man does not react to him. Alexander's success is solely because of his father much like many spoiled boys today and of course, his father was much smarter and therefore is allowed to show a little of his face as he points at Aristotle or Plato, telling his son "there's the man you should speak to about this". Alexander also wears green maybe symbolizing nature but it may also symbolize greed._*
