But he is, of course, most outstanding as a philosopher.

Aristotle's Rhetoric
Welcome to the online version of aristotle s Rhetoric. These hypertext pages are based on the 1954 translation of noted classical scholar W. Rhys Roberts.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~honeyl/Rhetoric/

Extractions: A hypertextual resource compiled by Lee Honeycutt This online version of Aristotle's Rhetoric is based on the translation of noted classical scholar W. Rhys Roberts. In editing this text, I have made every effort to preserve the original style of Roberts' print edition, though footnotes and parenthetical Greek phrasings were omitted to streamline reading of the text online. In addition, British punctuation rules were generally altered to conform to American style, though British spelling conventions were retained. Each of the books above contains Roberts' original chapter descriptions given in the introductory contents section of the printed translation. Some of these descriptions are quite brief, consisting of only a few words, while others are fairly lengthy; yet all of them amply describe the contents of the chapter's text and serve as a useful guide in navigating this hypertext version of the Rhetoric . The site also now includes a Bekker index to assist classical scholars more familiar with this referencing system from the definitive Greek text. It is my hope that online scholars of the rhetorical tradition will find this resource quite helpful in checking and rechecking specific passages of the Rhetoric during the course of their research.

Extractions: (384-322 BC) Born at Stagira in Macedonia , the son of Nicomachus, Aristotle was together with Plato the most influential philosopher of the western tradition. At age 17 he entered Plato's academy in Athens , and remained there until Plato's death. Aristotle then accepted the invitation of Hermias to reside at Assos. Upon the death of Hermias (whose niece, Pythias, he married) in 345, Aristotle went to Mytilene on the island of Lesbos . Between 343/2 and 340 he acted as the tutor to the young Alexander the Great . In 335 he returned to Athens where he founded a school, the Lyceum. Here he organized and conducted research on many subjects, and built the first great library of antiquity. After the death of Pythias he lived with Herpyllis, by whom he had a son, Nicomachus. On the death of Alexander in 325 anti-Macedonian feeling in Athens caused Aristotle to retire to Chalcis where he died in 322. The works known in his lifetime include dialogs modelled on those of Plato, but these are now lost. It is also known that he accumulated an immense collection of natural and historical observations during his headship if the Lyceum, but these too are mainly lost. The extant corpus is nearly all preserved through the edition of Andronicus of Rhodes, made in the 1st century BC. Important works are:

http://philosophy.sean.tripod.com/id17.htm

Extractions: Aristotle was born in 384 BC in a Greek Town of Stagira, which was a seaport on the coast of Macedonia. As the ancient Greeks in Aristotle's time only had one name, they were often also referred to by their place of birth, hence Aristotle was commonly known as "Aristotle of Stagira". His father, Nichomachus, was a court physician to King Amytas of Macedonia, which provided Aristotle his long association with the Macedonian court, which later in his life proved to be a great influence. When he was just a boy of the age of 10, Aristotle's father died and he was taken under the care of a man named Proxenus. Proxenus sent Aristotle at the age of 17 to Athens, which was then the intellectual centre of the world, to complete his education. In Athens, Aristotle joined the famed Plato's Academy and began to be a prominent figure. In the later years of his time there he also began to lecture as well. When Plato died in 347 BC, it wasn't Aristotle that took his place, even though he was intellectually perfectly capable. Plato's nephew Speusippus was chosen to head the Academy because Aristotle's ideas had diverged too far from Plato's.

Extractions: Philosophy of Aristotle Introduction to Aristotle The events of the next five years are uncertain. Perhaps Aristotle stayed at the court; perhaps he went back to Stagira. But in 335, after the death of Philip, he returned to Athens for his second long sojourn. Just outside the city he rented some buildings and established his own school, the Lyceum, where he lectured, wrote, and discussed philosophy with his pupils and associates. Under his direction, they carried out research on biological and other philosophical and scientific topics. Theophrastus worked on botany, Aristoxenus on music; Eudemus wrote a history of mathematics and astronomy, Meno of medicine, and Theophrastus of physics, cosmology, and psychology. In addition, Aristotle and his group produced a monumental account of the constitutions of 158 Greek city-states - an account Aristotle draws on in his own Politics Aristotle was above all driven by a desire for knowledge and understanding in every possible realm. His works are teeming with detailed observations about the natural world as well as abstract speculations of the most general sort. As both a scientist and a philosopher, Aristotle could easily make the transition from describing the feeding behavior of eels and limpets to theorizing about the divine intellect that is the uncaused cause of everything else in the universe. But his philosophical and scientific interests are rooted in the natural world - about one quarter of the surviving works deal with topics in biology. This he combined with an unshakeable confidence in the ability of the human mind, aided by the system of deductive logic he invented and by close and detailed observation of natural phenomena, to comprehend the fundamental nature of objective reality.

For some years Aristotle served in Macedonia as tutor for a youngster who would come to be known as Alexander the Great. When Alexander succeeded to the throne, Aristotle returned to Athens and established his own school, the Lyceum, which survived for 500 years. Aristotle taught the range of human knowledge; it is believed that he had received his love of the scientific from his father, Nichomachus, who served in the court of Philip of Macedon as a physician. The range of subjects offered at the Lyceum included logic, metaphysics, theology, history, politics, ethics, aesthetics, astronomy, meteorology, and an ancient equivalent of physics and chemistry.

Extractions: Philosophers: Aristotle (384-322 BCE) On-line introductions On-line texts Aristotle was born in Stagiros, Macedon, in 384BCE. His father was a court physician to King Amyntas of Macedon, but died when Aristotle was young. At that time, medicine was a secret craft passed down from father to son, so his father's early death drastically changed the course of Aristotle's life. He was brought up and educated by a guardian, who sent him at the age of seventeen to the centre of intellectual and artistic life, Athens. There he entered Plato's Academy (Plato was away in Syracuse at the time), where he stayed for about twenty years, first as student then as teacher. When Plato died, the story becomes a little obscure. Aristotle left Athens, but it's not clear exactly why. It might have been because he was passed over as head of the Academy, or because of his philosophical differences with the new head, Speusippus, or because of his Macedonian antecedents. Macedon was unpopular at that time, because the new king, Philip, was rapidly expanding the borders of his kingdom, and Athenians felt threatened. Moreover, Aristotle wasn't simply tarred by the brush of geography; he was a childhood friend of Philip, and had retained his connections with the family. Whatever the reason, Aristotle sailed for Assos in Asia Minor, where he lived for three years, developed his interest in anatomy and biology, and began work on his book the

Aristotle then returned to Macedonia, where King Philip hired him to prepare his thirteen-year-old son, Alexander, for his future role as a military leader. His student would one day be known as known as Alexander the Great, one of the greatest military conquerors of all time. Once Alexander became King of Macedonia, Aristotle returned to Athens and opened a school he called the Lyceum. For the next twelve years, Aristotle organized his school as a center of research on astronomy, zoology, geography, geology, physics, anatomy, and many other fields.
