www.ag-physics.org 36 A specific German grammar-school called “Humanistic Gymnasium” was standard for intelligent young people until the middle of 20th century It was mainly related to the ancient Greek philosophy Plato Aristotle … and the ability for abstract thinking meant a high value The Re-Physicalization of Physics 36 ‘
37
www.ag-physics.org 37 The structural world of Plato: ‘ Newton: F out = F in The Re-Physicalization of Physics F out Plato: Circuit is structural rule W. Heisenberg: “Quantum mechanics can only be correct if it conforms to the structure ideas of Plato” F in 37

www.ag-physics.org 38 The point of abstraction: ‘ The Re-Physicalization of Physics Object-related: There are apples Abstraction-related: There is an application of the number of 10 10! Einstein has learned at school: A person is higher-minded if abstraction-related 38 Einstein was impressed by the “Beauty of the GR-Formalism”
