双语:十大怀古圣地之希腊雅典卫城

来源:ebigear 编辑:beck   可可英语APP下载 |  可可官方微信:ikekenet



For the architects of Athens’ Golden Age, the mastery of geometry was a magical discovery that revealed the glories of nature. The Acropolis of Callicrates and Ictinus is a startling celebration of their new intellectual power. The Acropolis shows a maturity of Greek mathematics and also an appreciation of geometrical ideas. This is a work of utmost importance in that it lays the foundations of logic into mathematics and enables us to use this as a tool to explore the unknown. Every detail of the Acropolis, its masonry, sculptures and painted decorations were to be the finest ever created.

雅典黄金时期的建筑师认为,掌握几何学是发掘自然美的魔法。卫城使卡利克拉提斯和艾士提努有机会一展杰出的智慧与身手。雅典卫城显示了希腊人对数学的精通以及对几何学的推崇。这项工程至关重要,它奠定了将逻辑引入数学的基石,令后人得以借此途径探索未知世界。雅典卫城在每一处细节上,无论石匠技术、雕刻艺术,还是绘画装饰,都是前无古人的精美绝伦。
