00:00:00 - 00:15:00

In this section of the YouTube video titled "Tales de Mileto: o brabo!!!", the host discusses the life and accomplishments of Thales of Miletus, a legendary Greek philosopher and mathematician. Tales lived around 624 BC and died in 546 BC, during a time when people believed that the essence of things was a substance, which Tales believed to be water. Tales's logic for this belief was based on observation, as the dual movement of the tides and seas blurred the lines between the mind and body. His observations also led him to question the role of the gods in nature and taught people that natural observation could lead to scientific discoveries. The host also notes that Tales made a significant impact on society by challenging traditional beliefs about the natural world, and his predictions of a solar eclipse helped establish the importance of mathematics in Western culture.

• 00:05:00 In this section, the speaker discusses how Thales, a Curious Mathematician, helped ancient society better understand the world through his observations and logical thinking. Thales observed that animals needed water to survive, and humans were no different. He also noted that organisms were composed of water and that the formation of rain and lightning were physical, not divine. These observations led Thales to the conclusion that nature had its own laws of operation, and that there was no need for divine intervention in understanding the natural world. Thales' insights, which he expressed through map making and scientific compositions, expanded the horizons of the people of his time and helped pave the way for future scientific and philosophical advancements.
