http://www.yorku.ca/christo/papers/heraclit.htm

Extractions: York University christo@yorku.ca Heraclitus was the most important philosopher between Pythagoras and Parmenides. He lived in the city of Ephesus, of which substantial ruins remain still on the western coast of present-day Turkey. The region was then called Ionia. His exact dates are not known. McKirahan (1994) reports them as being 540-480 BC. Unlike Xenophanes and Pythagoras, he did not flee the Persian invasion of Ionia (546 BC) for Italy; he survived it, and even flourished under it. As with all other early pre-Socratics, none of Heraclitus' original writings remain, although he was said to have written, as was traditional for philosophers of his time, a treatise generally on nature ( physis ). What is known of Heraclitus' philosophy is contained in more than 100 fragmentary mentionings of him by his successors. Many of these fragments are obscure, enigmatic, and even bizarre. Diogenes Laertius, a biographer who lived about 300 AD, recounted a story (repeated by Barnes, 1987, pp. 57-58) that Socrates, upon reading a copy of Heraclitus' work (allegedly given to him by the great tragic playwright, Euripides), said "What I understood was good.... But it would take a Delian diver to get to the bottom of it." Heraclitus frequently asserted the unity of opposites: "the road up and down is one and the same road" (DK22 B60); "while changing, it rests" (DK22 B84a); "in the case of a circle, beginning and end are the same" (DK22 B103); "cold things become warm, a warm thing becomes cold..." (DK22B 126); and perhaps strangest of all, "immortals are mortals, mortals immortals: living their death, dying their life" (DK22 B62).

Filosofie
heraclitus van Efese (ca. 540 480 v. Chr.) De leer van heraclitus is door eenschrijver na hem samengevat in de woorden `alles stroomt' (`panta rhei').
http://home.planet.nl/~mutsa024/Efese.htm

Extractions: Heraclitus van Efese (ca. 540 - 480 v. Chr.) Deze filosoof (wordt gerekend tot de jongere natuurfilosofen) neemt als oorzaak van de wereld weer een enkele stof, het vuur. Voor hem is al het andere een gedaanteverwisseling van het vuur. `Onze wereld hier werd noch door een van de Goden noch door een van de mensen geschapen. Zij was veeleer altijd al en is eeuwig levend vuur'. Uit dit oervuur, dat zelf zuivere rede (`logos') is, komt door tweespalt en strijd als drijvend element die veelheid van de dingen voort die zich weer verenigt tot harmonie. Dit door strijd ontstane evenwicht is een eeuwig stromen. De leer van Heraclitus is door een schrijver na hem samengevat in de woorden `alles stroomt' (`panta rhei'). Zijn eigen woorden luiden: `In dezelfde stroom dalen we af en dalen we niet af'. De gangbare verklaring hiervan is dat, wanneer men voor de tweede maal in dezelfde rivier denkt af te dalen, de rivier toch niet meer dezelfde is, Intussen stroomt immers weer ander water door de bedding. Met het benadrukken van de veranderlijkheid van alles onderscheidde Heraclitus zich enerzijds van de eleaten, die in een Een tweede grondbeginsel van Heraclitus is `de eenheid der stellingen'. Hiermee wordt bedoeld dat ieder ding en ieder verschijnsel zijn waarde ontleend aan het bestaan van een tegengestelde en dit tegengestelde in zekere zin oproept. Deze tegenstellingen vullen elkaar niet alleen aan, maar vloeien ook in elkaar over. Zo vloeit jong naar oud en de dag naar de nacht.

Heraclitus? Or Xenophanes?

http://www.xenodochy.org/gs/heraxeno.html

Extractions: JAN 04, 1993 I have often heard Heraclitus of Ephesus touted as the first general semanticist. As reason the touters cite his theory of flux or "constant change" as expressed by fragment 21: "You cannot step twice into the same river, for other waters are continually flowing on." Heraclitus lived from about 525 bc until after 475 bc. But an earlier philosopher had views even more in accord with modern general semantics. Xenophanes of Colophon, reportedly born before 590 bc, and who lived past 92 (until after 498 bc), in fragment 34 "states that men can have no certain knowledge, only opinion. . . . Xenophanes did believe (fragment 18) that, by searching, men can improve their understanding, but he implies that this will always fall short of knowledge." One translation of fragment 34 goes: "Even if a man should chance to say the complete truth, he cannot know that it is the truth." [The Greeks] were also quite conscious of the need for verification. This they expressed by saying that every hypothesis must 'save the appearances' (. . .); in other words, that it must do justice to all the observed facts. That is the method of science, as we understand it still.

Extractions: One thing seems certain: Heraclitus had an extremely negative reaction to Milesian thought. For the Milesians, what is real is fixed and permanent; change somehow had to be explained away. They understood changes as alterations of some basic, underlying, material stuff which is, in its own nature, unchanging. Heraclitus reversed this: change is what is real. Permanence is only apparent. Heraclitus had a very strong influence on Plato. Plato interpreted Heraclitus to have believed that the material world undergoes constant change. He also thought Heraclitus was approximately correct in so describing the material world. Plato believed that such a world would be unknowable, and was thus driven to the conclusion that the material world was, in some sense, unreal, and that the real, knowable, world was immaterial. The unity of opposites

This observation has inspired the tentative reconstruction offered here. All authentic quotations from Heraclitus (fl. 500 BC) are included in the following text; material shown in square brackets on the English side has been added by the editor; and some small fragments and guesses in Marcovich's edition have been added in brackets to the Greek. Marcovich has pointed out by implication that Heraclitus wrote in free verse rather than straight prose. Heraclitus' words are of legendary opacity, and all of the fragments can be translated in many ways: the translation given here is partly new. The numbers are references to the fragments in Kahn's translation. The ordering of the fragments, apart from the opening paragraph, is of course conjectural: the relationship of the ordering given here with other translations is shown in the appendix. tou de logou tou d eontoV ginomenwn gar pantwn kata ton logon tonde okoiwn egw dihgeumai touV de allouV anqrwpouV Although this account holds forever men fail to comprehend it, both before they hear it and when they first hear.

Extractions: Heraclitus was pre-Socratic Greek philosopher of whom we only have second-hand information. According to the reports of others, he argued that fire was the primal substance from which the universe and all matter is formed - but there does not remain any fundamental "stuff" from which everything in the universe is made. Other preserved reports indicate that he used paradoxes to demonstrate that the world is in a constant state of flux - he even argued that the apparently unchanging hills were changing, just too slowly for people to readily notice. The most famous of these was his metaphor of the river. Acording to Heraclitus, because a river is always flowing and always in flux, it is impossible to ever step into the same river twice. It may look to us like the same river, but obviously the water has changed entirely and continually does so from second to second. The only thing which does remain the same is the cosmic balance of everything in motion.
