GRK 1939: Philosophy, Science and the Sciences: The Dialogue among Different Forms and Models of Knowledge in Ancient Greek, Roman and Arabic Thought

该研究培训小组侧重于古希腊，罗马和阿拉伯哲学和科学中不同形式和知识模式之间的对话。特别关注哲学和特殊科学之间的界面，包括古代思想家关于它的明确观点，以及他们处理哲学和特殊科学之间界面的实际实践。我们认为这是该计划的创新力量，以整合这些方面：无论是对哲学和科学的关系的理论思考和实际的科学和哲学实践;无论是从哲学的角度，从特殊科学的角度：无论是从古代思想家的角度，从当代哲学的角度。我们的跨学科计划的进一步重要创新是：本书涵盖了整个古代哲学和科学，包括强调后来的古代思想，包括普罗提诺，以及整个古希腊和早期基督教传统，直到辛普利丘斯和菲洛波努斯;包括随后的阿拉伯传统;以及与中世纪，文艺复兴和当代哲学的联系。该计划汇集了哲学家，古典主义者，阿拉伯学家和科学史学家。资格计划旨在将博士候选人培养成成熟的初级研究人员，旨在为博士学位后的下一步做好早期和密集的准备。课程是基于研究研讨会和博士座谈会。我们在一个繁荣和支持性的社区背景下为研究生提供密集的咨询。该计划具有很强的国际性。大多数博士生在国外的大学学习，许多人有外部顾问。该计划带来了杰出的国际学者柏林每学期。我们的学生受益于柏林古代研究的独特资源（如Topoi和柏林古代研究研究生院）。我们有帮助我们的学生完成博士学位，并把他们放在优秀的职位证明记录。

This Research Training Group focuses on the dialogue between different forms and models of knowledge in ancient Greek, Roman and Arabic philosophy and science. Special attention is given to the interface between philosophy and the special sciences, including both the explicit views of ancient thinkers about it and also their actual practice of dealing with the interface between philosophy and the special sciences. We consider it an innovative strength of the program to integrate these dimensions: both the theoretical reflection on the relationship of philosophy and science and actual scientific and philosophical practice; both from the perspective of philosophy and from the perspective of special sciences: both from the perspective of ancient thinkers and from the perspective of contemporary philosophy.Further important innovations of our interdisciplinary program are: coverage of the whole of ancient philosophy and science including an emphasis on later antique thought, including Plotinus and also the entire ancient Greek and early Christian tradition down to Simplicius and Philoponus; inclusion of the subsequent Arabic tradition; and connections with medieval, Renaissance and contemporary philosophy. The program brings together philosophers, classicists, Arabists and historians of science.The Qualification Program aims at developing doctoral candidates into full-fledged junior researchers and is designed to prepare candidates early and intensively for their next steps after the doctorate. The curriculum is based on research seminars, and doctoral colloquia. We provide intensive advising of graduate students within the context of a flourishing and supportive community. The program is strongly international. Most doctoral students spend time at a university abroad and many have an external advisor. The program brings distinguished international scholars to Berlin every semester. Our students benefit from the unique resources for ancient studies in Berlin (such as Topoi and the Berlin Graduate School of Ancient Studies). We have a proven record of helping our students to complete their doctorates and placing them in excellent positions.
