influential as the ancient Greek philosophers Plato and Aristotle. Aristotle was even a student of Plato’s‚ having studied under him for over 20 years. However‚ both men still held opposing views when it came to certain views about how the state should be ruled. One such view was on the ability to own private property and the ability to rule. Plato’s‚ The Republic and Aristotle’s‚ the Politics of Aristotle illustrates both philosophers’ ideal states of regime. It is also where we get a clear view

ARISTOTLE‚ MILL AND MARX‚ CONTRAST SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES Of the many Greek moralists and writers‚ Aristotle offers the most psychological and insightful accounts of virtuous character. This is particularly true to observation as most of the character treatments with respect to philosophical insight are focused mainly on Aristotle’s analysis. The reality of life is that humans abide by choices and elements that define how we live which are enshrined in ethics as described through the works

Aristotle on Causality 1. Introduction Aristotle was not the first person to engage in a causal investigation of the world around us.

Charles Darwin’s Ideas After reading the book “Origin of Species” by Charles Darwin‚ I would place Darwin halfway between “creative genius” and “spin doctor” if there was a spectrum. The way he thinks and examines a theory was really outstanding‚ even the extraneous amount of research he has accomplished was there to back his theories up. Reading the book made me realized that he did “borrow” the ideas from other people‚ such as Charles Lyell‚ Jean-Baptist Lamarck‚ William Paley and Thomas Malthus

American Transcendentalism began as a protest against the general state of culture and society during the 1700s‚ and in particular‚ the state of intellectualism.

Before embarking on my journey through my ideas of Africa‚ I viewed Africa in a stereotypical way. Tribal communities separated by civil war‚ but I now know that Africa is much more than my once silly assumptions. Africa was a cultural rich continent with diverse traditions and beliefs. However‚ many of this changed when the colonization of Africa took place during the early 20th century. I viewed Africa as a barren Savannah with many untamed animals living almost adjacent to these small tribal
