The name of the ancient Greek scholar Pythagoras is familiar to everyone from school days. But the proof of the famous theorem on the square of the hypotenuse and the sum of the squares of the two legs is only a small part of the many contributions this remarkable man made to the world. A thinker and philosopher (incidentally, he was the first to coin the words "philosopher" and "philosophy"), a religious figure who developed the doctrine of "metempsychosis"—the transmigration of souls, a mystic and prophet, whom his students seriously perceived as a god or demigod—he was one of the most important figures of the Greek "intellectual revolution." Indeed, it was during this revolution that the foundation on which our civilization rests to this day was essentially created. The fate of Pythagoras and the teachings he created, as well as the Greece of his time—the sixth century BC—is discussed in this article. "... the end of the so-called archaic era," says Igor Surikov, a recognized expert in ancient history and philosophy and Doctor of Historical Sciences, in his new book.
