The day Sagunt Classical Culture is a unique day, happy and enriching. The joy is given by the reunion with friends and colleagues I see you have not, to know new colleagues, and enriching to learn from their hard work and share ours.
yesterday on the occasion of the VIII Jornada de Cultura Clásica present to our fellow workshop Aetate hominis: Infantia. The presentations were made by Louis and Salut, my friends along with the Juanvi Hortus hesperidum who explained what life was like a infans from birth to seven years.
thank José M ª Ciordia its contribution to the workshop to tell us who was the inventor of the rattle, Archytas of Tarentum (400-365 BC). Aristotle in his Politics, Book V, 46 says:
ἡ δὲ παιδεία πλαταγὴ τοῖς μείζοσι τῶν νέων.
Education is the rattle of adolescents.
Aristotle Policy V 6 (1340b).
rattle of Archytas himself was not a bad invention, since, making the children had their hands full , prevented them from breaking anything in the house, because children can not sit still for even a moment. The rattle is a great toy for the first age, and the study is the rattle of the age that follows. (translated by Patrick Azcárrate)
And of course we also thank Alvaro Vilariño 's confidence in our work to propose a translation of some of our items to Galician for educational use in classrooms by adding activities. For our part we announce that we intend to be ready for the Ludi booklet Saguntini MMXI the Hominis Aetate in Castilian and Valencian.
As you can see was a very full day. Here you have some pictures of the workshops yesterday.
Salutem plurimam!
