Description
The Secret History of Pythagoras is a book written by Samuel Croxall in 1751. It is a historical and philosophical account of the life and teachings of Pythagoras, the ancient Greek mathematician, philosopher, and mystic. The book explores the lesser-known aspects of Pythagoras' life, including his travels to Egypt and India, his encounters with various religious and philosophical traditions, and his secret teachings to his inner circle of disciples. Croxall delves into Pythagoras' theories on music, numbers, and the harmony of the universe, as well as his influence on the development of mathematics and philosophy in Western civilization. He also examines the political and social context of Pythagoras' time, including the rise of the Greek city-states and the emergence of democracy. The Secret History of Pythagoras provides a fascinating glimpse into the life and teachings of one of the most enigmatic figures in ancient history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, mathematics, or the history of ideas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
