Hypatia of Alexandria - The Brightest Mathematician of Antiquity

[@ibrow369]

Today is my daughter's 10th BDay I call upon Hypatia for blessings, knowledge,and wisdom to be a intuitive guide⚡🌈🌞🌎🐢🐇🕉️

[@georgearc9576]

Ιt is not mentioned that Hypatia was Greek.

[@NikephorosAer54]

It is a Greek name, Greek culture and She wrote in Greek. What do you guess ? She is my Heroine. A Greek friend, Demetrios Maniates.

[@WildMen4444]

A woman with a Greek name studying Greek philosophy in a city founded by Alexander the Great. The likelihood of her being anything other than an ethnic Greek is slim to none

[@NikephorosAer54]

Realy? By whom?The ignorant? Were there many Women Philosophers, Poetesses, Mathematitians, Physisists... in Alexandria in 4th century CE who weren't of the Greek Culture? Demetrios.

[@NikephorosAer54]

It is not about ethnic, it is about Culture my friend. My humble oppinion. Demetrios.

[@NikephorosAer54]

Hypatia in Greek means Supreme !

[@NikephorosAer54]

Yes, the film Agora is fine ! Director Alejandro Amenabar and Hypatίa is Rachel Weisz ! And Hypatia, wich means in Greek Supreme, is my Heroine... A Greek friend, Demetrios Maniates. (Oh, don't forget the book of Pedro Galvez from wich comes the scenario of the film.) She was a Poetess too !!!

[@ajizel13]

These are the type of videos we need more of... random interesting historical figures.... I enjoy these

[@HypatiaMuse]

I've always been a fan of her story.

[@andrewmaloney837]

Hi, thank you for this one. If anyone's deeply interested in Late Antiquity, Paganism and Early Christianity I strongly recommend a lesser known channel called Schwerpunkt. Keep up with the good work

[@WildMen4444]

I pray that she is dining with the heroes. I watched that movie Agora about her and I couldn't talk to anyone for the whole day. I already knew what happened to her (and the movie actually toned it way down) but seeing it in action and hearing things coming from the mouths of the characters stuff I have heard in real life made me want to flip a lid.

[@myliege8197]

It was thanks to the movie Agora, I found out about the wonderful actor Oscar Isaac as one of Hypatia’s loyal student and ally. The way Oscar Isaac tries to reason with the violent Christian mobs and protect Hypatia was so tragic and moving.

[@xLonGxLegZx]

Did the murdering zealots pay for their crimes?? Or did they get away with it?

[@932ForeverLove]

Hopefully, they were punished. Or if not, hopefully somebody in power later condemned their actions. That death was brutal and shameful.

[@WildMen4444]

They got away with it

[@klidouxos]

None was persecuted, because it is believed that they had connections with the patriarch of Alexandria.

[@sequandi5741]

One person who could not only handle the truth, she married it!

[@patrickmcguire7896]

Nice to see smart woman of ancient times getting their respect

[@Prwnybones]

I love the content on this channel.

[@christianchauhan23]

❤🤍💙 all your videos mate👍

[@stephenmalovski313]

Suddenly... you know that there were huge riots in Alexandria around that time period where there were atrocities from all sides, Jews, Pagans and Christians instead of what you presented. Her assassination wasn't because of religion but politically motivated if she supported a figure in the power struggle of the city. There's no actual evidence who murderers the were, no eyewitness accounts but yes the best assumption is that the bishop ordered her assassination... The decline of Alexandria wasn't because of loss of a single woman...but rather a slow process that took centuries to complete. Another thing is that how people love to credit Hypatia with theories and inventions that existed centuries before her birth Apparently she was great at everything...an extremely beautiful, full of wisdom great teacher, talented orator, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, poet, Inventor, What not... although there's very little actual evidence how great she was in these subjects because like I said most of her inventions were already invented. It's almost like various people love filling in the blanks with what they want her to be instead of what she was

[@InternetDarkLord]

I hate to point this out, but there is little evidence she was better at mathematics than Archimedes or Euclid.

[@ancientmage2669]

And that hurts you because she was a woman

[@InternetDarkLord]

@@ancientmage2669 It leaves me saying, nobody knows one way or the other.

[@mrmeowmeow710]

👍👍loved this video

[@cesarerinaldi6750]

Have you wondered where Dante would have placed Hypatia? In logic I would say Limbo but in faith I say Dis/Heresy, because she has, more than once, directly and voluntarily turned her back on Christ.

[@WildMen4444]

I mean, she was never Christian. She was raised Pagan and always was Pagan. You can't turn your back on something that you never were a part of

[@jdbm]

To be honest, I'm only here because of the Good Place and she was portrayed by Phoebe Buffay😅😅

[@WildMen4444]

Lisa Kudrow

[@jdbm]

@@WildMen4444 yeah I know. But let's be honest, when people see Lisa Kudrow, they think of Phoebe Buffay (just like when people see Matthew Perry they think Chandler Bing).

[@WildMen4444]

​@@jdbmYou'll have to accept my apology. I totally forgot that was her character's name in Friends

[@lisawinika3312]

​@@WildMen4444 this was so civilized it made me smile

[@MCorpReview]

Rachel Weiss from agora 😂

[@flamingeel3196]

personaly I perfer to watch slideshow video like your and animated vector that dosen't trigger kids seeing their favourte charater getting killed at times, and more importantly I don't watch movies based on real life events before most is inaccurate and they mainly lt do it to please the critics if it's good or not

[@leopard6554]

She was one of the greatest minds ever walked the surface of the earth...!!! Because of her death, I abandoned Christianity years ago...!!! There's a movie about her Agora...!!!

[@andromeda331]

She was amazing!

[@-RONNIE]

Thanks for the video 👍🏻

[@jos0807]

Hypathia is famous😁👍💖

[@stevenpatrick9213]

Was she a strong independent woman who don’t need no man?

[@WildMen4444]

Feminists don't hold a candle to Hypatia.

[@WildMen4444]

No. She didn't hate men. She just wanted to focus on philosophy. She worked with plenty of men who considered her to be a sister, mother, teacher, and friend.

[@ancientmage2669]

Yes she was very independent and highly intelligent. Men weren't of her interest because they were never going to offer her the knowledge and wisdom she attained. SHE WAS GREAT❤❤❤

[@charliemcternan8190]

I am so excited

[@lancevance60]

Doubt.

[@andrjsh]

One idea that no one entertains is whether Hypatia deserved a violent death. (Before anyone starts clutching their pearls, recall that many people would begrudgingly admit that the French aristocrats in 1792, say, "had it coming".) Elevated as a rationalist and feminist martyr, she has received a glossy shield of apologistic protection. She is a bipedal sacred cow. In the same way, everyone ignores Galileo's falseness and backstabbing and receives the interpretation of the inquiry into his science from biased sources. As well, the violence of the Alexandrian monks was not necessarily approved hy the best elements in the local church. (See The Sayings of the Desert Fathers, editor Benedicta Ward.)
