Oxford classicist Edward Copleston said that classical education “ communicates to the mind … a high sense of honor, a disdain of death in a good cause, a passionate devotion to the welfare of one ’ s country ”, thus concurring with Cicero that: “ All literature, all philosophical treatises, all the voices of antiquity are full of examples for imitation, which would all lie unseen in darkness without the light of literature ”.

* The strong cosmic censorship hypothesis asserts that, generically, general relativity is a deterministic theory, in the same sense that classical mechanics is a deterministic theory.

A nominal definition is the definition explaining what a word means, i. e. which says what the ' nominal essence ' is, and is definition in the classical sense as given above.

String theories are quantum theories of gravity in the sense that they reduce to classical general relativity plus field theory at low energies, but are fully quantum mechanical, contain a graviton, and are believed to be mathematically consistent.

: in the LXX occurs only in the plural, and perhaps only in the classical sense of ' a reward for good tidings ' (

As one critic writes: " Pei has been aptly described as combining a classical sense of form with a contemporary mastery of method.

Middle East historian Bernard Lewis argues that " the overwhelming majority of classical theologians, jurists, and traditionalists ( specialists in the hadith ) understood the obligation of jihad in a military sense.

In a chronological and theoretical sense, there are classical — those created throughout the 19th century — and post-classical anarchist schools — those created since the mid-20th century and after.

In this sense, propositions restricted to the finite are still regarded as being either true or false, as they are in classical mathematics, but this bivalence does not extend to propositions which refer to infinite collections.

This definition corresponds to the classical definition using Cauchy sequences, except with a constructive twist: for a classical Cauchy sequence, it is required that, for any given distance, there exists ( in a classical sense ) a member in the sequence after which all members are closer together than that distance.

* The United States of America is sometimes called " The Republic ", especially in a classical sense.

* ( i ) The older sense of classical Latin pāgānus is " of the country, rustic " ( also as noun ).

# God is not omnipotent in the classical sense and so God does not provide support for the status quo, but rather seeks the actualization of greater good.

A two-level quantum system can carry at most one qubit, in the same sense a classical binary digit can carry at most one classical bit.

In classical physics this does not make sense, since any number of properties can be measured simultaneously with arbitrary accuracy.

For example, the Fourier transform of such simple functions as polynomials does not exist in the classical sense.

In the classical sense, Expressive aphasia is the result of injury to Broca's area ; it is often the case that lesions in specific brain areas cause specific, dissociable symptoms, although case studies show there is not always a one-to-one mapping between lesion location and aphasic symptoms.

This is the classical result in the sense that it does not take into account that electrons obey Fermi – Dirac statistics.

In the English language and other modern European languages, " reason ", and related words, represent words which have always been used to translate Latin and classical Greek terms in the sense of their philosophical usage.

Petitio ( from peto ), in the post-classical context in which the phrase arose, means " assuming " or " postulating ," but in the older classical sense means " petition ," " request ," or " beseeching.

In a broader sense Marshall hoped to reconcile the classical and modern theories of value.

It was, of course, a little boy's fantasy of winning his mother to himself, and replacing the father who could not give her the things she wanted -- a classical oedipal fantasy if you like -- but if it were only this the story would be banal.

Talbot ( 1989 ) observes that alcoholism in the classical disease model follows a progressive course: if a person continues to drink, their condition will worsen.

For example in the case of anthrax, it is likely that by 24 – 36 hours after an attack, some small percentage of individuals ( those with compromised immune system or who had received a large dose of the organism due to proximity to the release point ) will become ill with classical symptoms and signs ( including a virtually unique chest X-ray finding, often recognized by public health officials if they receive timely reports ).

According to this definition, an object qualifies as a classical KBO if:

The emergence of Recent Latin in the 20th century restored classical orthodoxy among Latinists and sparked a general ( if still academic ) interest in the beauty of Latin poetry.

Similarly, if light consisted strictly of classical particles and we illuminated two parallel slits, the expected pattern on the screen would simply be the sum of the two single-slit patterns.

If a ray tracing is then made as if a light wave ( as understood in classical physics ) is wide enough to take both paths, then that ray tracing will accurately predict the appearance of maxima and minima on the detector screen when many particles pass through the apparatus and gradually " paint " the expected interference pattern.

Thus if we reason from the statement " Pegasus flies " to the statement " Pegasus exists ", we are not asserting that Pegasus is made up of atoms, but rather that Pegasus exists in a particular worldview, the worldview of classical myth.

It considered two entangled particles, referred to as A and B, and pointed out that measuring a quantity of a particle A will cause the conjugated quantity of particle B to become undetermined, even if there was no contact, no classical disturbance.

Gibbs showed that if we use the equation Z = ξ < sup > N </ sup >, the entropy of a classical ideal gas is

In the process, many fragments of classical learning are preserved which otherwise would have been hopelessly lost ; " in fact, in the majority of his works, including the Origines, he contributes little more than the mortar which connects excerpts from other authors, as if he was aware of his deficiencies and had more confidence in the stilus maiorum than his own " his translator Katherine Nell MacFarlane remarks ; on the other hand, some of these fragments were lost in the first place because Isidore ’ s work was so highly regarded — Braulio called it quecunque fere sciri debentur, " practically everything that it is necessary to know "— that it superseded the use of many individual works of the classics themselves, which were not recopied and have therefore been lost: " all secular knowledge that was of use to the Christian scholar had been winnowed out and contained in one handy volume ; the scholar need search no further ".

The American founders rarely cited Rousseau, but came independently to their Republicanism and enthusiastic admiration for the austere virtues described by Livy and in Plutarch's portrayals of the great men of ancient Sparta and the classical republicanism of early Rome, as did many, if not most other enlightenment figures.

Similarly, if funding is withdrawn part way through an experiment, and the analyst must work with incomplete data, this is a possible source of bias for classical methods but not for Bayesian methods, which do not depend on the intended design of the experiment.

Classical economists on the contrary defined profit as what is left after subtracting costs except interest and risk coverage ; thus, if one leaves aside risk coverage for simplicity, the neoclassical zero-long-run-profit thesis would be re-expressed in classical parlance as profits coinciding with interest in the long period, i. e. the rate of profit tending to coincide with the rate of interest.

For example, if classical mechanics truly governed the workings of an atom, electrons would rapidly travel toward, and collide with, the nucleus, making stable atoms impossible.

However, with quantum entanglement, if Alice and Bob measure the spin of their particles in directions other than just up or down, with the directions chosen to form a Bell's inequality, they can now observe a correlation that is fundamentally stronger than anything that is achievable in classical physics.

The postulate is justified in part, for classical systems, by Liouville's theorem ( Hamiltonian ), which shows that if the distribution of system points through accessible phase space is uniform at some time, it remains so at later times.

Philo argues that even if the universe is indeed designed, it is unreasonable to justify the conclusion that the designer must be an omnipotent, omniscient, benevolent God-the God of classical theism.

There is evidence that he was an extensive reader, if not a minutely accurate classical scholar.

In France " arabesque " first appears in 1546, and " was first applied in the latter part of the 17th century " to grotesque ornament, " despite the classical origin of the latter ", especially if without human figures in it-a distinction still often made, but not consistently observed,

The operator on the left represents the particle energy reduced by its rest energy, which is just the classical energy, so we recover Pauli's theory if we identify his 2-spinor with the top components of the Dirac spinor in the non-relativistic approximation.

Some cuneiform and classical Greek and Latin texts mention an astronomer with this name, but it is not clear if they all refer to the same individual:

For example in the case of anthrax, it is likely that by 24 – 36 hours after an attack, some small percentage of individuals ( those with compromised immune system or who had received a large dose of the organism due to proximity to the release point ) will become ill with classical symptoms and signs ( including a virtually unique chest X-ray finding, often recognized by public health officials if they receive timely reports ).
