Aristotle represents for most of us an icon of difficult or abstruse philosophical thinking; to know Aristotle often provokes hushed whispers even from highly educated people. For all this reputation, though, Aristotle is actually quite an easy read, for the man thought with an incredible clarity and wrote with a superhuman precision. It really is not possible to talk about Western culture (or modern, global culture) without coming to terms with this often difficult and often inspiring philosopher who didn't get along with his famous teacher, Plato , and, in fact, didn't get along with just about everybody (no-one likes a know-it-all). We can say without exaggeration that we live in an Aristotelean world; wherever you see modern, Western science dominating a culture in any meaningful way (which is just about everywhere), Aristotle is there in some form. Alexander the Great . Although Alexander was a stellar pupil, Aristotle returned to Athens three years later, founded his own school, the Lyceum, and taught and studied there for twelve years. Because Alexander began conquering all of the known world, Macedonians became somewhat unwelcome in Athens and Aristotle was accordingly shown the door in 323. He died a year later. empirical . As a result of this belief, Aristotle literally wrote about everything: poetics, rhetoric, ethics, politics, meteorology, embryology, physics, mathematics, metaphysics, anatomy, physiology, logic, dreams, and so forth. We aren't certain if he wrote these works directly or if they represent his or somebody else's notes on his classes; what we can say for certain is that the words, "I don't know," never came out of his mouth. In addition to studying everything, Aristotle was the first person to really think out the problem of

45. Halloween On The Web From Aristotle Ghost stories, trickor-treat safety tips, Shockwave Flash Jack O'Lantern Game, make up hints, plus scary music. http://www.allhallowseve.com/index.html

The story of Halloween goes back over 2000 years to the ancient Celts. Druidic priests regarded the day as the end of the year. Not only was it their day for celebrating the year's harvest, but October 31 itself was also the day of Samhain, a festival for honoring the dead. In order to appease the wandering spirits they believed roamed at night, the Celtic priests made fires in which they burned sacrifices, made charms, and cast spells. Portions of the Celtic holiday of the dead eventually passed into Christian culture after the Romans conquered the Celts and tried to bring the Celts into the "Christian fold." It eventually became apparent to the church leaders that the Celts, in spite of their conformation to some aspects of Christian culture, were stubbornly sticking with elements of their old religion. So, in the seventh century AD , the church moved its All Saints' Day, a holiday for honoring early Christian martyrs, from a day in May to November 1, thus associating it with the old Druid death rituals of October 31. By the tenth century A.D., the Catholic Church had added a new holiday, All Souls' Day. This day was set aside to honor all of the dead, not just the early Christian Saints. Celebration of Halloween came to America with early Irish and Scottish immigrants. By then, though, it had already started to lose its mysterious overtones and was becoming merely a harvest celebration: a night of bobbing for apples, eating popcorn, and telling ghost stories around a bonfire. It was already changing into the holiday for children with which we in the 20th century are so familiar.

46. Aristotle's Rhetoric Online version of aristotle s Rhetoric based on the 1954 translation of classicist W. Rhys Roberts. Compiled by Lee Honeycutt of Indiana State University. http://www.public.iastate.edu/~honeyl/Rhetoric/

A hypertextual resource compiled by Lee Honeycutt This online version of Aristotle's Rhetoric is based on the translation of noted classical scholar W. Rhys Roberts. In editing this text, I have made every effort to preserve the original style of Roberts' print edition, though footnotes and parenthetical Greek phrasings were omitted to streamline reading of the text online. In addition, British punctuation rules were generally altered to conform to American style, though British spelling conventions were retained. Each of the books above contains Roberts' original chapter descriptions given in the introductory contents section of the printed translation. Some of these descriptions are quite brief, consisting of only a few words, while others are fairly lengthy; yet all of them amply describe the contents of the chapter's text and serve as a useful guide in navigating this hypertext version of the Rhetoric . The site also now includes a Bekker index to assist classical scholars more familiar with this referencing system from the definitive Greek text. It is my hope that online scholars of the rhetorical tradition will find this resource quite helpful in checking and rechecking specific passages of the Rhetoric during the course of their research.

Hippocrates Mentioned by Plato The writings attributed to Hippocrates apparently were collected at Cos from early scientific observations by Hippocrates and other physicians of his era. The Hippocratic Oath has had a tremendous influence on the ethics of medical practice from that day to this. Although Hippocrates criticized traditional beliefs that the gods cause illnesses, the oath begins by swearing to the gods of health. In the Hippocratic oath physicians promise to benefit patients and abstain from whatever is harmful, to give no deadly medicine nor give a woman a pessary to induce an abortion. In entering homes to benefit the sick they must abstain from any voluntary mischief including seduction. Hippocrates recommended that physicians study nature and the whole subject of medicine that shows what people are in relation to food and drink and other occupations with the effects of each. He noted that large quantities of undiluted wine make one feeble, although he occasionally prescribed some wine. General rules often have exceptions. Cheese, for example, is not equally injurious to everyone. The physician should know the effects of fasting or eating various amounts or drinking soups, and so on. His most famous aphorism is the very first one: Life is short, and art long;

54. Nicole Oresme - On The Heavens An excerpt from the Menut and Denomy translation of Oresme's commentary on De Caelo. http://web.clas.ufl.edu/users/rhatch/pages/02-TeachingResources/HIS-SCI-STUDY-GU

NICOLE ORESME ON THE BOOK OF THE HEAVENS AND THE WORLD OF ARISTOTLE BOOK II. CHAPTER 25. Afterwards he [Aristotle] sets forth another opinion. Text: And some say the earth is at the center of the universe and revolves and moves circularly around the pole established for this, as written in Plato's Timaeus. Gloss: This was the opinion of one called Heraclides of Pontus who proposed that the earth is moved circularly and that the heavens are at rest. Aristotle does not here refute these opinions; it perhaps seemed to him that they have little [root in] appearance and are well refuted elsewhere in philosophy and astronomy. But it seems to me, subject to correction, that one could well support and give luster to the last opinion, namely that the earth, and not the heavens, is moved with a daily movement. Firstly, I wish to state that one could not demonstrate the contrary by any experience (expenence) Secondly, [I will show that the contrary cannot be demonstrated] by reasoning. And thirdly, I will put forth reasons in support of it (that is, the diurnal rotation of the earth). It seems to me that by [using] what I shall say regarding these experiences, one could respond to all the other [experiences] which might be adduced in this matter

56. 20th WCP: A DNA Account Of Propositions As Events: Dummett, Någårjuna, Aristot Article by Khristos Nizamis presented at the 20th World Congress of Philosophy. Khristos argues that Indian Buddhism allows us to maintain an alternate antirealism that is compatible with bivalence, and the phenonomenal ontology of the world. http://www.bu.edu/wcp/Papers/Scie/ScieNiza.htm

Philosophy of Science Khristos Nizamis The University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia knizamis@utas.edu.au khristos.nizamis@tassie.net.au ABSTRACT: Michael Dummett has argued that antirealism requires a rejection of bivalence. However, his version of antirealism is not the only available one. In fact, it is arguable that his antirealism is not sufficiently antirealist and falls short of his intentions. On the basis of a study of the Indian Buddhist philosopher, Nagarjuna, I think that a more complete and coherent kind of antirealism is possible, one that respects the phenomena of conventional ontology and retains the principles of classical logic, but reinterprets both in a radical way. Michael Dummett The set of questions I would have liked to tease out and consider here goes something like this: without essence, but only without essence. And isn't Dummett's critique of realism ultimately grounded in epistemological concerns, not metaphysical ones, given also that the relevant metaphysical problems are generated, on his account, by the classical logic itself? Instead, I shall limit this account to a problematic and erotetic that might conveniently be gathered under the following question: what can we critically determine concerning the relations that might be supposed to hold between propositions, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, events in a spacetime-causal continuum. But, it should be kept in mind that, necessarily, a proposition is itself also an event in a spacetime-causal continuum. On this matter, it should be noted, I shall not subscribe to any modern form of surreptitious metaphysical Platonism, of which, for example, any 'type/token' schema is arguably one kind of representative.

57. JOHN PHILOPONUS Article by Dan Graves, employing Philoponus as an example of the power of the creationist view. http://www.rae.org/philop.html

JOHN PHILOPONUS, ARISTOTLE'S EARLY CREATIONIST CRITIC Author: Dan Graves Subject: History Date: 6/24/1998 Essays by Author Essays by Subject Essays by Date Shopping Cart Article adapted from the Dan Graves' book, Scientists of Faith The first to present his case seems right until another comes forward and questions him. Proverbs 18:17. The power of the creationist view can be better seen at the very outset of Western science in the person of John Philoponus. Aristotle (384-322 B.C.), the ancient Greek philosopher and scientist whose views still reverberate today, did more than perhaps any other thinker to shape pre-Christian science. But his theories, while innovative for his day, often combined brilliant insights with a good deal of nonsense-nonsense that opposed several fundamental tenets of first Judaism and then Christianity. Significantly, Aristotle's most serious critic in the first seven hundred years was John Philoponus, an Alexandrian Christian. In response to Aristotalian error, Philoponus forged a sustained attack against Aristotle's chief proponent during the seventh century A.D., a Greek philosopher named Simplicius. Fortunately for modern science, Simplicius often responded to those attacks with long quotations from Philoponus, inadvertantly preserving his opponent's work for posterity. Philoponus's application of Christian theology to physics prefigured a new era in science. The Alexandrian scholar was the first to combine scientific cosmology (the study of the nature of the universe) with monotheism and the Christian doctrine of creation. In doing so, Philoponus anticipated not only the findings but also the methods of modern science. He controlled his observations in the manner of genuine research, although it is not certain he ever progressed beyond thought experiments-that is, experiments carefully thought out, but not actually performed.

60. Guide To Philosophers - Aristotle Born at Stagira in Macedonia, the son of Nicomachus, aristotle was together with aristotle then accepted the invitation of Hermias to reside at Assos. http://www3.baylor.edu/~Scott_Moore/aristotle.html

This page has been adapted from Bjorn Christensson's origingal Aristotle page. Mr. Christensson removed his excellent Philosophy pages from the WWW on February 15, 1996. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue these important links for the study of Aristotle. SHM Aristotle (384-322 BC) Biography Born at Stagira in Macedonia , the son of Nicomachus, Aristotle was together with Plato the most influential philosopher of the western tradition. At age 17 he entered Plato's academy in Athens , and remained there until Plato's death. Aristotle then accepted the invitation of Hermias to reside at Assos. Upon the death of Hermias (whose niece, Pythias, he married) in 345, Aristotle went to Mytilene on the island of Lesbos . Between 343/2 and 340 he acted as the tutor to the young Alexander the Great . In 335 he returned to Athens where he founded a school, the Lyceum. Here he organized and conducted research on many subjects, and built the first great library of antiquity. After the death of Pythias he lived with Herpyllis, by whom he had a son, Nicomachus. On the death of Alexander in 325 anti-Macedonian feeling in Athens caused Aristotle to retire to Chalcis where he died in 322. Works The works known in his lifetime include dialogs modelled on those of Plato, but these are now lost. It is also known that he accumulated an immense collection of natural and historical observations during his headship if the Lyceum, but these too are mainly lost. The extant corpus is nearly all preserved through the edition of Andronicus of Rhodes, made in the 1st century BC. Important works are:
