Calcidius

Platonic philosopher (4th century AD) · Academics

Calcidius was a 4th-century philosopher who translated the first part of Plato's Timaeus from Greek into Latin around the year 321 and provided with it an extensive commentary. This was likely done for Bishop Hosius of Córdoba. Very little is otherwise known of him.

Calcidius is read about 24 times a day, in 18 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 23 August 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
