Immortalized by intellectual activity. We have all heard of Aristotle. A pillar of the classical world of ancient Greece, he was one of the first and greatest philosophers to ever exist. Without him, our world and the Western intellectual tradition would be simply unrecognizable. Aristotle studied, and wrote and lectured on, every academic discipline you could probably ever imagine. His existence and work were critically important parts of the foundation of every subject of philosophy and science in existence today. Aristotle might seem like merely a great name from a foggy, incredibly distant past, but he should be highly valued by everyone alive today. It would be extremely difficult to find one academic subject which Aristotle did not study, and he was the one to begin the process of the categorization of the different disciplines of the arts and sciences. In this book, we will explore the dynamic, fascinating life of this great thinker. We will begin with his birth and boyhood, and then move on to his twenty years studying and teaching at the legendary Platonic Academy in Athens, his time in Assos (which included marriage and leading a group of philosophers of his own), his life at the Macedonian court acting as private tutor to a young Alexander the Great, and finally the years he spent running his own school, The Lyceum, in Athens. We will also discuss the philosopher's works, as well as his general contribution to, and immense influence on, the Western intellectual tradition.
