绳结学派招生简章 Nodist Recruitment Prospectus

神悟树庭的绳结学派在不久前制定的新招生简章。看得出，绳结学派认为这些要求非常基本且简单。 An enrollment brochure designed recently by the School of Nodism under the Grove of Epiphany. It is clear to see that the school believes these requirement

一、绳结学派旨在培养具备扎实的学理基础，能够凭借绝对严谨的演绎法研究万物之间的关系，度量万物的数量、结构、所在空间及其变化关系的研究者。

1. The Nodist School aims to cultivate students with a solid theoretical foundation and are capable of utilizing absolute rigorous methods of inference to study the relationships between all things, as well as to measure the quantity of all things, their structures, the spaces they exist in, and the changes therein.

二、作为神悟树庭历史最悠久的学派，研究者能够在绳结学派修习到过往数千年人类总结下来的宝贵真理。这些知识仅从极少且必要的基本设定出发，以严格的重言式排除所有可能产生谬论的

2. As the school with the longest history in the Grove of Epiphany, scholars have access to priceless knowledge that has been handed down through the Nodist School over millennia. This knowledge is built on a basis of a very small and necessary number of foundational facts, and employs strict tautology to eliminate all

「不言自明」之说。

"self-evident truths" that may create misconceptions.

三、因此，本学派虽然在日常生活中崇敬泰坦、也尊重翁法罗斯的一切世俗道德，但拒绝在学理中以不严谨的方式讨论它们。凡有借此高谈阔论、不务学术正业者，学派一概作劝退处理。

3. It is for this reason that although our school may revere the Titans in daily life and honor the morality of Amphoreus, when it comes to research, we refuse to discuss them without rigorous consideration. We discourage anyone who would use this as an excuse to indulge in excessive vapid discussion without engaging in the work of academia from joining.

四、本学派认为，作为学派的理论支柱，数学是一种以绝对严谨的方式研究世界上一切关系的学问。我们欢迎一切对数学抱有如此见解的前辈、同侪、后学加入我们。

4. Our school maintains the belief that, as a theoretical pillar, mathematics is a science that examines the relationships between all things in this world in an absolute and rigorous manner. We welcome all seniors, fellows, and students who also hold this opinion of mathematics.

五、本学派不设置任何程序化的考核。虽然如此，为了节省彼此的精力，我们希望您对以下问题具备解答能力后再考虑联系我们：

5. This school does not set any form of standardized assessments. That being said, in order to ensure that no one's time is wasted, we hope that you will consider your ability to answer the following questions before contacting us:

1.为何说，与其他种种学理只能被称为「知识」不同，数学的结论可以当之无愧地被称为「真理」。

1. Why is it that the conclusions reached by mathematics can be deemed worthy of the name "truth" when those of the other schools can only be referred to as "knowledge"?

2.为何说，即使崇高如泰坦，也必然要遵循数学的法则。

2. Why is it that even the great and mighty Titans are forced to obey the laws of mathematics?

3.为何说，如果世界存在一种底层语言，那么它必然是数学。

3. Why is it that we say that if the world were to have a foundational language, then it must be mathematics?

4.为何说，即使泰坦的权能可以随意改变，数学的结论也不可能发生改变。

4. Why is it that people say the divine authority of the Titans can be changed as they please, but the conclusions of mathematics could not possibly ever change?

5.为什么不只是数字，无穷（包括极大、极小、极远等）也可以是数学研究的对象。

5. Why is it that it is not just numbers alone, but the concept of infinity (infinitely small, infinitely large, infinite distance) can also become objects of study for mathematicians?

6.为什么看似绝对客观的数学，其实无法离开泰坦和人类的主观意志而存在，而且是这种主观意志的创造物。

6. Why is it that the seemingly objective study of mathematics is a creation of the subjective will in humanity and Titans, and also cannot ever be separated from it?

7.为什么（6）与（1）不构成矛盾。

7. Why is it that (6) and (1) do not contradict each other?

8.为什么1+1=2可以只用一句话证明完毕。

8. Why can 1+1=2 be completely proven with just a single sentence?

9.在半分钟内心算任意两位整数之平方，并得出正确结果。

9. Mentally calculate the square root of any two-digit integer and produce the correct result within half a minute.

六、如有意加入本学派，请联系贤人阿普列尤斯的首席秘书尼科马库斯先生。（注：尼科马库斯的工作时间为每周一至周五的明晰时，其余时间属私人支配，谢绝打扰。）

6. If you are interested in joining the school, please contact Sage Apuleius' head secretary, Mr. Nicomachus. (Note: Nicomachus works at the Lucid Hour from Mondays to Fridays. The rest of their time is reserved for personal activities, and they are absolutely not to be disturbed.)
