Knowing All the World's Classics (15)

1、 For medieval scholastic philosophy and Arabic philosophy, Aristotle meant the sum of human knowledge. In church theology, the absolute authority of Metaphysics and Aristotle's works is second only to the Bible.

 2、 In Political Science, Aristotle outlined the relationship between philosophy and politics, that is, the ultimate goal of a city-state is to ensure that some people have the conditions to live a philosophical life. However, this kind of life can only be enjoyed by Greeks.

3、 Classic excerpt from Political Science: Philosophy originated from curiosity; A brave person is shrewd in their work and calm in their handling of affairs; Whoever truly wants to know something must first learn to doubt in the right way.

4、 Many political propositions in Political Science, especially the classification theory of political systems, have had a great influence on later generations, and Western thinkers have directly or indirectly adopted Aristotle's theory of political systems.

5、 Aristotle lived at the intersection of two historical periods in ancient Greece, the Classical period and the Hellenistic period, when he faced a profound social crisis. Later, wars led to the bankruptcy of farmers and the intensification of class struggle.
