So what are we supposed to take away from the initial comment?
- sambazi 3y agoThat Leonardo was a great individual because he did what he did
- AlecSchueler 3y agoSure, but aren't there great individuals who didn't study nature in that way?
- fuzzfactor 3y agoWhen it comes to scholars, if they came along after Da Vinci, there is some likelihood they studied at least a little something descended from Leonardo himself.
- u32480932048 3y agoGiven the sheer number of individuals and methods of studying nature: certainly. Anyone who's studied math or statistics for more than two minutes could answer that.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoExactly, so if there are multitudes of great individualss both have and haven't studied nature then why make a bald statement about the practice of a single individual? I'm asking what was being initially implied.
- fuzzfactor 3y ago>Leonardo was a great individual because he did what he did Could also equally be that Leonardo did what he did because he was a great individual. >So what are we supposed to take away from the initial comment? Probably something that I can add to. That gives me an idea . . .
- u32480932048 3y agoThat people known for their solutions often spend time considering the problems and prior art, or that playing in the woods as a child equates to a mastery of engineering, philosophy, and art later in life. I'm not sure which. It's very hard to say, especially since none of us are LeonardoDaVinciologists.
