Aristotle's Throttle

             Aristotle continues to be one of the most revered philosopher's of all time. He was born at Stagira in northern Greece (384-322 BC). Aristotle was the most noted product of the educational program that was devised by Plato. He spent about 20 years studying at the Academy. When Plato died, Aristotle returned to his native Macedonia, where he supposed to have participated in the education of Philip's son, Alexander (the Great). It was at the time that he received Alexander's approval in 335 and then established his own school at the Lyceum. Aristotle spent most of his life in research, teaching and writing. Aristotle put out several writings in an attempt to bring his thoughts to paper and give them a sense of organization. This was evident in his writings such as "Metaphysics-, "On the Soul-, "Poetics-. It was also noted that he may have been the author of a model of the "Constitution of Athens-. Aristotle's principles of metaphysics, etc. are still.
             Aristotle, being a man of principles, believed that it was not possible to truly know and understand a subject unless you were able to comprehensively teachings others of your knowledge. Simply, teaching for Aristotle was as a manifestation of knowledge. There were many scholars who questioned Aristotle by the end of the 19th century. Evidence would demonstrate that Aristotle influenced all areas of logic from art, ethics, and metaphysics. Aristotle's metaphysics is, what is meant by the real or true substance? The development of potentiality to actuality is one of the most important aspects of Aristotle's philosophy. It was intended to solve the difficulties, which earlier thinkers had raised with reference to the beginnings of existence and the relations of the one and many. Much of Aristotle's focus was on the determination to find happiness. Of course, that would then once again bring into question one's definition of happiness.
