Aristotle | Mimi Bebe

Aristotle (384–322 BCE) was a towering figure in ancient Greek philosophy, a student of Plato, and the teacher of Alexander the Great. His work spans an astonishing range of subjects, from logic and metaphysics to ethics, politics, biology, and poetics. He established the Lyceum, a major philosophical school in Athens, and his empirical approach laid groundwork for scientific inquiry. Aristotle's concepts, like his theory of the four causes and his virtue ethics, have profoundly shaped Western thought for over two millennia, sparking continuous debate and reinterpretation.
