Who Is Aristotle

Aristotle (Greek: Ἀριστοτέλης Aristotélēs) (384 BC – 322 BC) was a Greek philosopher, a student of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Great. He wrote on diverse subjects, including physics, metaphysics, poetry (including theater), biology and zoology, logic, rhetoric, politics, government, and ethics. Along with Socrates and Plato, Aristotle was one of the most influential of the ancient Greek philosophers. They transformed Presocratic Greek philosophy into the foundations of Western philosophy as we know it. Some consider Plato and Aristotle to have founded two of the most important schools of Ancient philosophy; others consider Aristotelianism as a development and concretization of Plato’s insights.

Aristotle came up with a definition of rhetoric, “The faculty of discovering (in a particular case) the available means of persuasion”. That’s all I know so far, I’m studying Aristotle right now and am still learning myself.

Well for one, there was Aristotle Onassis, the Greek shipping billionaire, lol, but I don`t think thats the one ur asking about. Aristotle was an ancient Greek philosopher, he was known as one of the greatest and most influential thinkers in the western culture.
