 Philosophers : Plato
Plato's extant work is in the form of epistles and dialogues, divided according to the probable order of composition.
Plato's goal in dialogues of the middle years, e.g., the Republic, Phaedo, Symposium, and Timaeus, was to show the rational relationship between the soul, the state, and the cosmos.
In Plato's various dialogues he touched upon virtually every problem that has occupied subsequent philosophers; his teachings have been among the most influential in the history of Western civilization, and his works are counted among the world's finest literature.

The application of inner (or as it was called then: "higher") criticism to New Testament texts-prompted by Friedrich Schlegel, tested on the work of Plato, and expounded in introductions to translations of Plato since 1804
Schleiermacher's opponents feared the loss of some Pauline epistles and so also the trustworthiness of the early Christian tradition as such-a feeble position that burdens the progress of the debate concerning the Pastoral Epistles until today.
However, the tragedy of this exemplary work in the history of scholarship is that the first responses could pre-determine the general outline of the future discussion in such a one-sided way, without the author's unencumbered style of historical and theological exposition and argumentation being fruitfully appropriated and further developed.

 Hermann Patsch,.
Schleiermacher is said to be too critical and confuses Paul with Plato when he presupposes unchanging characteristics of language and continuous train of thought.
Schleiermacher's opponents feared the loss of some Pauline epistles and so also the trustworthiness of the early Christian tradition as such-a feeble position that burdens the progress of the debate concerning the Pastoral Epistles until today.
It was not the tradition of the ancient church that, as was usually the case, provided Schleiermacher the standard for critical appraisal, and not at all the profusion of historical difficulties that arise from the assumption of authenticity.

 End of History
The model expression of this Christian missionary's work, is found in the Gospel of John and Epistles of Paul, in which the heritage of Plato serves as the cultural vehicle employed for the transmission of specifically Christian conceptions.
The case of Philo of Alexandria's argument against the theological implications of Aristotle, is a comparable reflection of the use of that existing language-culture, the heritage of Thales, Pythagoras, Solon, Plato, and the pre-Euclidean constructive geometry which they employed, was the medium best suited to transmission of conceptions of universal physical and related principle.
However, the most efficient practical defense of the institution of the modern nation-state from corruption by such terrorist cults as the modern Martinists, has been that mode of separation of church from state which was instituted within the context of the U.S. Federal Constitution.

 Fidelio Article: LaRouche--Hobbes' Math Misshaped History
The focus of these imperial assaults from the east, was against Augustine and the method of Plato inhering in Augustinian Christianity, as in the Gospel of St. John and Epistles of Paul.
Sarpi, shrewder than the leaders of Venice who preceded him, recognized that the strength, and corresponding vulnerability of emerging, modern European civilization, was its dependency upon the scientific method of Plato.
Mathematician Paolo Sarpi's application of “Occam's Razor” to Aristotle, to make Aristotle's anti-Platonic formalism the hypothesis of a generalized, empiricist-materialist method, is a pathology of that latter type.

Among the literary antecedents to which this learned grammatikos expressly alludes, the most prominent are Books 5 and 6 of the Odyssey and Plato's Phaedrus.
Musaeus takes up a subject whose first detailed treatment is preserved in Ovid's Heroides (Epistles 18 and 19), but he presents it in a quite different manner.
We have no explicit information about the poet Musaeus, author of the short epic poem on Hero and Leander, except that he is given in some manuscripts the title Grammatikos, a teacher learned in the rhetoric, poetry and philosophy of his time.

 Epicurus.info : E-Texts : Epicureanism, by William Wallace
The scene, in fact, presented by the history of the Epicurean garden reminds us of the generosity and brotherly charity exhibited by the various congregations of the infant Christian Church: and the letters of Epicurus and his chief followers are not without their analogues in the Epistles of St. Paul.
They do not scorn, especially the Stoics, to take a leaf out of the note-books of Plato and Aristotle.
To the very close of its career the Epicurean sect clung reverently and lovingly to the person of the master, to whom, with one accord, his followers attributed their escape from the thraldom of superstition and of unworthy fears and desires.

825 - 833.) The former of these epistles is a short caution; the latter is a formal reply of the petition or libel of Symmachus.
The Pagans were indulged in the most licentious freedom of speech and writing; the historical and philosophic remains of Eunapius, Zosimus, ^64 and the fanatic teachers of the school of Plato, betray the most furious animosity, and contain the sharpest invectives, against the sentiments and conduct of their victorious adversaries.
The breast of Symmachus was animated by the warmest zeal for the cause of expiring Paganism; and his religious antagonists lamented the abuse of his genius, and the inefficacy of his moral virtues.

 The Fear of Deutero-Paulinism: The Reception of Friedrich Schleiermacher's " Critical Open Letter" Concerning 1 Timothy - Hermann Patsch
After examining the linguistic peculiarities of 1 Timothy, De Wette makes the hypothetical objection that with this kind of argument one could render every letter suspect, which must necessarily have "something of its own," and points out, first of all, that this would also be true then for the other Pastoral Epistles.
De Wette began full-toned: "The highly versatile author, always appearing with distinction, has applied to the N. the critical acuteness which was a delight for the works of Plato-and not in vain!
In his Lerhbuch der historisch kritischen Einleitung in die kanonischen Bücher des Neuen Testaments, (21830, 275-288), De Wette weighed a combination of Schleiermacher and Eichhorn, i.e., that all the Pastorals might be inauthentic, but that 1 Tim was compiled from 2 Tim and Titus (286f.).

 Call Them `The Baby Doomers,' by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. (Jun. 18, 2000)
Mankind rises from the status of virtual human cattle of the gods, to Aeschylean Promethean man casting off the shackles of the tragically evil and doomed Zeus, to Platonic man seeking reconciliation with the "unknown God" of Plato's Timaeus and the Apostle Paul's epistles.
I mean universal characteristic, as Gottfried Leibniz introduced this notion, and as Bernhard Riemann made this notion of characteristic curvature the central feature of the Gauss-Riemann notion of a relativistic physical space-time.
Universal principles are not properties of sense-perceptual objects; they are the qualities which exist, often, among deductively apparent objects, but not within them.

 §6. His Medievalism. IX. Stephen Hawes. Vol. 2. The End of the Middle Ages. The Cambridge History of English and American Literature: An Encyclopedia in Eighteen Volumes. 1907–21
Thus, Plato is “the cunning and famous clerk”; Joshua is a “duke”; the centaur-king Melizius is the founder of feudal chivalry and is conversant with St. Paul’s epistles; Minerva 2 and Pallas are spoken of as distinct—the former being instructor in arms at the court of Melizius, the latter being the goddess.
Hawes employs the familiar medieval machinery—the May morning, Fortune and her wheel, the seven deadly sins, astronomical lore, and he firmly believes that all poetry is allegory.
Living though Hawes did at the opening of a new age, and having studied abroad at the time when the study of the classics was reviving in western Europe, he still shows the characteristic marks of medievalism.
