Table of Opposites : ウィキペディア英語版 | Table of Opposites
The ''Table of Opposites'' of Pythagoras is the oldest surviving of many such tables propounded by philosophers. Aristotle is the main source of our knowledge of the Pythagorean table.〔Chinese philosophy also categories objects or qualities that may fall under Yin or Yang. Hegel has his theory of the thesis and antithesis (and synthesis).〕 Here follows a rough translation of the Table of Opposites, although like all translations the precise meaning does not necessarily carry over from the original Greek. For example, "crooked" has connotations in English that it may lack in the original. * finite, infinite * odd, even * one, many * right, left * rest, motion * straight, crooked * light, darkness * good, evil * square, oblong Some sources add: * male, female Of these nine or ten opposites, many philosophers have seized on the third pair as one of the most profound questions in philosophy. Is the universe one? Then how is it diverse? Is the universe many? Then how is it unified? This has historically been known as the problem of the one and the many, about which no small amount of ink has been spilled. ==References==
