Topics: Plato: \u003ci\u003ePhaedo\u003c\/i\u003e, where Socrates undermines his explicit arguments for immortality with quotes from his predecessors; \u003ci\u003eStatesman\u003c\/i\u003e, with Socrates' impending death an occasion to reconsider the roles of dialectic, expertise, myth, image and law; Aristotle: \u003ci\u003eDe Caelo\u003c\/i\u003e, examining inclination, natural places, and the elements, with a strong dissent in the comment; \u003ci\u003eMetaphysics N\u003c\/i\u003e that differentiate mathematical features from natural explanation, with the comment raising challenging anomalies. Finally, Plotinus on union with the One and human happiness, as frequent and common. The comments challenge or sustain the theses in the main papers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gary M. Gurtler S.
