Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece Chapter 648

[Chapter 67 The Arrival of Plato]

Moreover, the Dionysian Academy is also open to the outside world, and there are fixed quotas every day to allow the Dionysian people who love knowledge to enter the academy to observe. Therefore, many people have heard the lectures of the medical school, especially the “Jiangsu Medical Development”. History”, because its content is vivid and interesting, and does not involve professional medical terms, many people still remember it, and this course focuses on Hippocrates.

“Oh, he is the Hippocrates who is called ‘Dionia Medical College in the west and Hippocrates in the east’!”

“I heard that he went to and from the place where the plague occurred many times, seeking a way to rescue him. Save the sick Greek people, even at the risk of his own life… This is a good man with lofty morals.”

“I also heard that he established a clinic on the island of Kos, without charging the poor, and saved his life. A lot of people…”

“The Greek city-states of the Eastern Mediterranean do not have hospitals like our Dionysus scattered across the city, and so many professionally trained doctors. Without Hippocrates, they would live in the fear of disease. ”

No! I think it’s mainly the Greeks in the Eastern Mediterranean who don’t believe in Hades and can’t get its blessings!”

“Well, you’re right.”

… The

onlookers were talking excitedly, One side spontaneously applauded.

“Mr. Hippocrates.” Helps pointed to a large crowd of applauding audiences on the pier, and said excitedly: “The people of Dionia are welcoming you warmly, and we are also ready to listen to your lectures! Hippocrates waved his hand hurriedly and said humbly,

”

I don’t dare to give lectures, I am here to exchange and study. I have long heard that medicine is very prosperous in the kingdom of Dionia, and there is even a doctor who is deeply knowledgeable in medicine. The king who strongly supports medical research! I have carefully read the book “Human Anatomy” that you brought me when you invited me. You have studied the bones, muscles, organs, blood vessels of the human body to such a profound level, it’s amazing Ah amazing!

There is also the “Theory of Human Blood Circulation”, which only has more than 100 words, which solved my confusion for many years. Unfortunately, there is only one point. Have you started to study it?

…Oh, I should have come a long time ago!

long overdue!

“Hippocrates sighed uncontrollably. Although he is old, he has a clear mind and clear articulation.

Stacey Cordas and Helpus looked at each other and said with a smile: “The Theory of Human Blood Circulation” It is almost finished, waiting for your criticism and correction.

There are also our newly made mannequins, various new surgical instruments, tens of thousands of cases of various diseases… are being placed in the Dionysian Medical College.

Waiting for you to watch, read, communicate… We heard that you have a lot of in-depth research in cranial surgery, treatment of epilepsy, and prevention of plague, and

we would love to talk to you…”

Stacey Cordas’s words made hope Pocrates’ eyes lit up, and before he could finish speaking, the old man grabbed Helps’s hand with a dexterity no weaker than that of the young man, and said excitedly, “Where is the Dionysian Medical College?

Take me there!

“…”

He said as he walked forward impatiently, even forgetting to introduce his two proud apprentices. Helps supported him.

A large group of doctors walked through the port area, attracting the curious watch of countless people. , and passed by Mattikris and Mentotik Els

who came in a hurry. These two elders who came in a hurry (the principal and vice president of the two-digit college were also in Diver a few years ago. He entered the Senate at the suggestion of Sis) Although he was curious about why the medical school was so active, he had no time to ask in detail. The two rushed to the exit of the pier and asked the waiting students, “Are you here?

“The

students shook their heads.

” We were informed by a clipper earlier that the passenger boat he was on had entered the Gulf of Taranto!

“Maticris scratched his head irritably.

“Don’t worry, just wait!”

‘ Mentotik Els reassured him.

The two were talking, but the people around them were surprised to see them appear.

Although they are not as prestigious as Helps and Stacey Cordas among the people, they are quite respected among the laborers of the port, because the pulley boom that has been perfected many times is from Mattiks. Design, it greatly reduces their workload of loading and unloading goods, and tries to avoid the possibility of injury.

Moreover, many sailors in the port know that Mattikris is also using the buoyancy theory invented by him to make an experiment in which a wooden hull is covered with thin iron to make it float on the water…

So these two knowledgeable Scholars are dispatched together, and who are they coming to greet?

The people are full of expectations.

At this time, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man came to the front of the welcoming team and asked, “May I ask you who are in charge of convening the All-Greek Scholars Conference?”

“Yes, may I ask you?” a student asked.

The middle-aged man smiled: “My name is Sain Strian, and I’m a scholar from Aldera.”

Aldera?

Hearing the name of the place, Matthias immediately asked loudly: “What is your relationship with Democritus?”

“Democritus is my respected teacher!” Sain Strian said apologetically: ” I want to apologize to you! The teacher originally promised to participate in this scholar conference, but he was infected with a cold a few days before departure, and his body has not recovered well. He is 78 years old and is really not used to such a long distance. Traveling by boat, not only his family persuaded him, but even the city-state councilors rushed to persuade him. In the end, he could only give up his plan to come to the conference, and sent me to Turii to carry out academic exchanges on his behalf. I hope I can get your understanding!”

“That’s a pity! I also want to have a good exchange with him about the calculation methods and knowledge of cones, spheres… these geometric aspects.” hair.

Mentotik Els said quickly: “We really didn’t think carefully enough, the old teacher Democritus is really not suitable for this kind of long-distance travel, I believe he can send you – Sain Strian. , you must be his best student, and we will listen to your wonderful speech.”

“That’s right! That’s right!” After all, Mattikris has been the deputy dean of the School of Mathematics for so many years. It is not that he has no emotional intelligence at all. He sincerely said to Sain Strian: “I look forward to being with you. Knowledge exchange in mathematics, physics, astronomy, etc. As for philosophy, Gorkia and the others will definitely invite you enthusiastically, but that will have to wait until you give a speech and exchange at the School of Mathematics.”

Sain Strian hurriedly humbled After a few words, everyone quickly became acquainted and walked out of the port talking and laughing.

Matthias was so loud just now that the onlookers heard the name “Democritus”, and a merchant from the Ionian region exclaimed: “Democritus! Dionysus actually went to Invited Democritus!”

Someone next to him hurriedly asked: “Who is Democritus?”

“You people in the Western Mediterranean may not know much, but the Eastern Mediterranean, especially the Euxian Sea, Asia Minor, and Ionian Greece Anyone who can read and write will know him. He lives in the Greek colonial city of Ardera in Thrace, and is a very knowledgeable scholar. It is said that he has knowledge of nature, philosophy, astronomy, geography, mathematics, physics, animals, Medicine, law, politics… They know everything. Countless young Greeks went to Ardera to ask him for teaching, and they all returned with satisfaction. Even the king of Persia heard about his reputation and wrote to invite him to teach in Babylon. It was only rejected by him. And I heard that although Democritus was a great scholar, he was humorous, kind, and could talk about complex issues in a lively and interesting way. He was full of praise, and even called him ‘the omniscient other than God’…” The merchant proudly recounted what he had heard about Democritus.

The people around listened with fascination, and couldn’t help but sigh: “It’s a pity that this great scholar can’t come!”

“Look, Lord Ancitanos is here! And the eloquent Lysias!” The people of Liyi exclaimed again.

As the first elder of the kingdom and the author of the Great History of Greece, Ancitanos won the respect of the people.

And Lycias is also famous in Dionia, not to mention the odes he wrote at various celebrations every year, and in the trial of Laodicien, he became famous as a defense lawyer, which made many young people think Bai studied debate under his door, and many people who committed crimes wanted to hire him to defend themselves, and now his house is crowded every day.

Therefore, wherever they passed, the people greeted them with greetings.

Plato got off the passenger ship and did not leave the dock in a hurry, but carefully observed the situation in the port.

He found that although the port of Turii is not as big as the port of Piraeus in Athens, and its location is not very good, its busyness is almost the same as that of Piraeus, and the sanitation and cleanliness of the wharf and the cleanliness of various facilities The equipment was much better than that of Piraeus, especially the boom erected on the trestle, which attracted a lot of attention.

Various merchant ships and passenger ships enter and leave the port, dock at the wharf, load and unload goods, how can labor, sailors, and passengers not interfere with each other, and can the entire wharf operate effectively and maintain a good order?

…By looking at these, you can see the level of a city-state’s management of affairs.

The apparently busy yet orderly scene of the port of Turii made Plato nod secretly.

At this time, Spicypus reminded: “Teacher, it may be someone from Dionysian Academy who is here to greet us.”

Plato turned his head to look at the words, just in time to see the man striding towards him. Someone in front shouted to him: “Plato, welcome! Welcome to Turii!”
