Title: Aristotle
Post by: ST.George on May 10, 2014, 03:37:12 PM
"Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and polymath, a student of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Great. His writings cover many subjects, including physics, metaphysics, poetry, theater, music, logic, rhetoric, linguistics, politics, government, ethics, biology and zoology. Together with Plato and Socrates, Aristotle is one of the most important founding figures in Western philosophy. Aristotle’s writings were the first to create a comprehensive system of Western philosophy, encompassing morality and aesthetics, logic and science, politics and metaphysics."


You might be saying "Yep, he sure was some kind of genius" and yet he was wrong about some of the seemingly most obvious. According to a QI show (ABC) last week, he died believing flies have only four legs and snot is brain matter.

Looks like we need to start an Academic Section if this is to become common!
