Quod est primum in compositione, est ultimum in resolutione. Notes on analysis and synthesis in Late Antiquity.

This article investigates the Creek and Latin origins of the Scholastic dictum that that which Is first in composition (equivalent to Greek sunthesis) Is last in resolution {Greek analusis). I study the tradition that synthesis proceeds from prior to posterior, while analysis moves from posterior to...

        This article investigates the Creek and Latin origins of the Scholastic dictum that that which Is first in composition (equivalent to Greek sunthesis) Is last in resolution {Greek analusis). I study the tradition that synthesis proceeds from prior to posterior, while analysis moves from posterior to prior. First I seek the origins of these notions in Greek mathematics. I then move on to Middle Platonist authors who identify analysis with Platonic diairesis, and I next move on to a brief survey of the notions of analysis and synthesis In some Neoplatonists. I show that both the mathematical and the philosophical versions of the analytic/ synthetic method became associated with several new contexts.
        En este artículo se Investigan los orígenes griegos y latinos de la máxima escolástica que dicta que lo primero en la composición (sunthesis) es lo último en la resolución (analusis). Estudio a la tradición que sostuvo que lasíntesis procede de lo anterior a lo posterior, mientras que el análisis procede de lo posterior a lo anterior. En primer lugar, busco los orígenes de estas nociones en las matemáticas griegas. Posteriormente me ocupo de autores del platonismo medio, quienes identificaron el análisis con la diairesis platónica. Paso después a un breve estudio de las nociones de análisis y síntesis en algunos neoplatónlcos. Muestro que tanto la versión matemática como la filosófica del método analítlco/slntético se asoció con varios contextos nuevos.
