The Inventor
Aristotelians
He is nicknamed as the Father of Science. Aristotle was the first person in the world to prove that the earth is round.
The proof he did with the path through the eclipse. Ten types of words known to people today such as.
Verbs, nouns, adjectives and so on are the division of words the result of his thinking. He also said that humans are social beings.
His work was translated into Latin, Arabic, Italian, French, Hebrew, German and English.
BRIEF BIOGRAPHY
Regarding the biography of Aristotle, his father Nicomachus, a doctor in the sitana. Aristotle was born in Stagira, Macedonia, 384 BC.
In 384 BC. Amyntas III, king of Mecodonia, grandfather of Alexander the Great, died when Aristotle was 15. Aristotle then lived with proxenus who was his mother.
STUDYING WITH PLATO
At the age of seventeen Aristotle went to Athens to study at Plato's Academy. From there he became a disciple of Plato for 20 years.
Plato died in 347 BC. Aristotle left Athens and traveled for 12 years. During this time he established an academy at Assus and married Pythias, who soon died.
He married Herpyllis, who gave birth to him a son whom he named Nicomachus after his father.
From his father, Aristotle probably gained a boost of interest in biology and “practical knowledge”. Under Plato's tutelage he instilled an interest in philosophical speculation.
THE MASTER ALEXANDER THE GREAT
In 342 B. C. Aristotle returned to Macedonia, becoming the teacher of a thirteen-year-old son of the king who later became famous in history with Alexander the Great. Aristotle educated the young Alexander in a few years.
In 335 BC, after Alexander ascended the throne, Aristotle returned to Athens and opened his own school, the Lyceum.
He was in Athens twelve years, a period that coincided with Alexander's military conquest career. Alexander did not seek advice from his former teacher, but he kindly provided funding for Aristotle to conduct investigations.
Perhaps this is the first instance in history of a scientist receiving large amounts of funding from the government for investigative purposes and the last in the following centuries.
However, his relationship with Alexander contained various dangers. Aristotle rejected in principle the way of Alexander's dictatorship and when the conqueror Alexander sentenced his cousin to death on charges of treason, Alexander had thoughts of killing Aristotle.
On the one hand Aristotle was too democratic in the eyes of Alexander, he also had a close relationship with Alexander and trusted by the Athenians. When Alexander died in 323 BC the anti-Macedonian faction held power in Athens and Aristotle was accused of insolence to the god.
Aristotle, recalling the fate of Socrates 76 years earlier, fled the city saying he would not be given a second chance to sin against the philosophers.
He also founded a kind of academy. This is where he spent 12 years lecturing, thinking, conducting research and experiments and making notes diligently and carefully.
In 323 BC Alexander the Great died. Fearful of killing Greeks who hated Alexander's followers, Aristotle fled to Chalcis.
Likewise, one year after his escape to the city, in 322 BC, at the age of 62 Aristotle died in the city, Chalcis Greece. Aristotle died in exile for several months.
ARISTOTLE'S WORK
The sheer amount of Aristotle's work is astounding. Forty-seven of his works still survive. The ancient list records no less than one hundred and seventy books of his creation.
In fact, not only the number of book titles that are amazing, but the breadth of the reach of civilization that is the material of reflection is also no less great.
The result of his scientific work, is, in part, a collection of knowledge obtained from special assistants paid to collect data for him, while in part it is the result of a series of observations of his own.
ARISTOTLE'S LIFE JOURNEY
To become a top-notch expert in every branch of science is certainly a miraculous impossibility and there is no duplicate of someone in the future. But what Aristotle has achieved is even more than that.
He was an original philosopher, a major contributor in every important field of speculative philosophy, he wrote on ethics and metaphysics, psychology, economics, theology, politics, rhetoric, beauty, education, poetry, the customs of the backward people and the constitution of Athens. One of his research projects was the multi-state collection he used for comparative studies.
ARISTOTLE'S INVENTION
Perhaps the most important of his many works was his investigation of the theory of logic, and Aristotle was seen as the founder of this important branch of philosophy. This is actually thanks to the logical nature of Aristotle's way of thinking that allows him to present so many fields of science.
He had a talent for organizing ways of thinking, formulating rules and types that later became the basis of thinking in many fields of science. Aristotle was never thrown into the mystic or extreme marshes. Aristotle always insisted on expressing practical opinions.
Of course, man by name, he also made mistakes. But it is amazing how few mistakes he made in such a vast encyclopedia.
Later Greek writers, as well as Byzantine philosophers, studied his work and held great admiration. It should also be noted, the fruit of his mind has a lot of influence on Islamic philosophers and for centuries his writings dominated the way of Western thinking.
Ibn Rushd (Averroes), perhaps the most eminent Arab philosopher, tried to formulate a fusion of Islamic theology with Aristotle's rationalism. Maimomides, the most prominent Jewish thinker of the middle ages, achieved synthesis with Judaism.
However, the most glorious work of such a deed is the Summa Theologia of St. Christian scholars. Thomas Aquinas's. Beyond this list there are still very many clever middle-century people who are influenced so deeply by the mind of Aristotle.
People's admiration for Aristotle soared at the end of the middle century when the situation had led to idolatry.
In those circumstances Aristotle's writings were more of a kind of intellectual package in which he questioned further problems than some sort of streetlight.
Aristotle who likes to research and think about himself is no longer wrong less agree with the blind adulation of the next generation of his writings.
Some of Aristotle's ideas seem reactionary measured with glasses now. For example, he supported slavery because he considered it to be in line with natural laws. And he believed in the humility of women rather than men.
The terms of Aristotle's creation are still used today: Information, relation, energy, quantity, quality, individual, substance, matter, essence, etc.
The greatest philosopher in the world of all time, the father of western civilization, the father of exiclopedics, the father of science, or the teacher (his) of scientists are the various nicknames given to these scientists.
Various terms such as logic called also mantic science that is the knowledge of how to think well, right, and healthy, making his name so well known by everyone around the world who has tasted the penidididikan.
