Former library copy with library-stamp. Marker signs on edges. Includes for example the following essays: Aristotle's Works and the Problem of Interpretation / The Character of Aristotle's Thought and His Philosophic Method / Explanation and the Teleological Model / Methodological Aspects of Psychology etc etc. Aristotle 384 322 BC was a Greek philosopher and scientist born in the Macedonian city of Stagira Chalkidice on the northern periphery of Classical Greece. His father Nicomachus died when Aristotle was a child whereafter Proxenus of Atarneus became his guardian. At eighteen he joined Plato's Academy in Athens and remained there until the age of thirty-seven c. 347 BC. His writings cover many subjects including physics biology zoology metaphysics logic ethics aesthetics poetry theater music rhetoric linguistics politics and government and constitute the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy. Shortly after Plato died Aristotle left Athens and at the request of Philip of Macedon tutored Alexander the Great starting from 343 BC. According to the Encyclopædia Britannica "Aristotle was the first genuine scientist in history . and every scientist is in his debt." Teaching Alexander the Great gave Aristotle many opportunities and an abundance of supplies. He established a library in the Lyceum which aided in the production of many of his hundreds of books. The fact that Aristotle was a pupil of Plato contributed to his former views of Platonism but following Plato's death Aristotle immersed himself in empirical studies and shifted from Platonism to empiricism. He believed all peoples' concepts and all of their knowledge was ultimately based on perception. Aristotle's views on natural sciences represent the groundwork underlying many of his works. Aristotle's views on physical science profoundly shaped medieval scholarship. Their influence extended into the Renaissance and were not replaced systematically until the Enlightenment and theories such as classical mechanics. Some of Aristotle's zoological observations such as on the hectocotyl reproductive arm of the octopus were not confirmed or refuted until the 19th century. His works contain the earliest known formal study of logic which was incorporated in the late 19th century into modern formal logic. In metaphysics Aristotelianism profoundly influenced Judeo-Islamic philosophical and theological thought during the Middle Ages and continues to influence Christian theology especially the scholastic tradition of the Catholic Church. Aristotle was well known among medieval Muslim intellectuals and revered as "The First Teacher". His ethics though always influential gained renewed interest with the modern advent of virtue ethics. All aspects of Aristotle's philosophy continue to be the object of active academic study today. Though Aristotle wrote many elegant treatises and dialogues Cicero described his literary style as "a river of gold" it is thought that only around a third of his original output has survived.
