ARISTOTLE 亚里士多德哲学思想
ARISTOTLE
As a student of Plato, Aristotle held a different view. He was preoccupied with natural processes and much of what he wrote was based on up-to-the-minute field studies. As a whole, he categorized our concepts and found the discipline of logic as a science and also had his own view of man and society.
Aristotle didn’t agree with Plato on the idea form, he thought things that are in the human soul were purely reflections of natural objects. So to Aristotle, if we never experience something, we will have no consciousness, reason that
distinguishes our human will be empty. When it comes to logic, Aristotle tried to show that everything in nature belongs to different categories and subcategories. He demonstrated a number of laws governing conclusion or proofs that were valid.
Aristotle divided the world into two main categories, nonliving things and
living things. For human, it is a combination of a plat-like part, an animal part and a rational part. Aristotle believed that only by using all his abilities and capabilities can man achieve happiness. Meanwhile if people want to find happiness and fulfillment, he must achieve all 3 criteria at the same time.
Aristotle said that man is by nature a “political animal”, we must live in society, or we are not real people. Finally, Aristotle didn’t view a woman as a finished man. He had a discriminate against woman, and unfortunately this erroneous view of sexes affect the whole Middle Ages.
