On The Soul - Aristotle

By: Aristotle

Aristotle (384 BC–322 BC) was an important Greek philosopher, one of the most influential thinkers in Western culture, having been a disciple of the philosopher Plato. Aristotle developed a comprehensive philosophical system in which he pondered practically all existing subjects, such as geometry, physics, metaphysics, botany, zoology, astronomy, medicine, psychology, ethics, drama, poetry, rhetoric, mathematics, and logic. " On the Soul" (in Latin, De Anima) is a text by the Greek philosopher Aristotle of Stagira, composed of three books, and there are no doubts about the authenticity of the work. In "On the Soul," Aristotle's objective is to analyze the main problems concerning the soul, which is the vital principle of every living being. Book I consists of an introduction and contextualization of the theme; Book II presents analyses on the relationship between soul and body, the faculties of the soul, nutrition, and sensation; in Book III, Aristotle discusses imagination and thought, as well as the relations between sensation and intellect. It is also in this treatise, specifically in Book III, that the philosopher presents his influential theory of active intellect and passive intellect.

The Ethics of Aristotle

By: Aristotle

The Ethics of Aristotle is one half of a single treatise of which his Politics is the other half. Both deal with one and the same subject. This subject is what Aristotle calls in one place the "philosophy of human affairs;" but more frequently Political or Social Science. In the two works taken together we have their author's whole theory of human conduct or practical activity, that is, of all human activity which is not directed merely to knowledge or truth. The two parts of this treatise are mutually complementary, but in a literary sense each is independent and self-contained.

The Politics of Aristotle

A Treatise on Government

By: Aristotle

The Politics of Aristotle is the second part of a treatise of which the Ethics is the first. It looks back to the Ethics as the Ethics looks forward to the Politics, as Aristotle did not separate the spheres of the statesman and the moralist. In the Ethics he has described the character necessary for the good life, but that life is for him essentially to be lived in society, and when in the last chapters of the Ethics he comes to the practical application of his inquiries, that finds expression not in moral exhortations addressed to the individual but in a description of the legislative opportunities of the statesman. The state is "a community of well-being in families and aggregations of families for the sake of a perfect and self-sufficing life" and the legislator is a craftsman whose material is society and whose aim is the good life.
