"Change in all things is sweet." -Aristotle Since this lengthy political season the word "change" and "yes we can" will never be thought of in the same light. The change in all things of President George W. Bush's governing has been the key issue this time around the historic bend. The change President-elect Barack Obama has proposed has been sweet and has captured a nation by its savory es

Reading Aristotle can be terribly difficult because not all of his works were written to be read; that is to say, some of his works are nothing more than lecture notes. Trying to make sense of them can be very frustrating. Hence, I almost gave up reading On Interpretation. Chapter 10 made no sense to me, and either did Chapter 11 or 12. I closed the book in frustration and put it on my shelf. Then

The most important chapter in the Categories is Chapter 2, in which Aristotle outlines his fourfold classification of being. The phrases he uses “to predicate of” and “to be present in” are strange enough to trip up the casual reader–if Aristotle actually has casual readers.I know that when I first read the Categories as an undergraduate (perhaps undergraduates are the casual readers of

I’ve decided to read Aristotle’s Organon—that is, his works on logic—and I thought I’d pass on some of the things I’ve learned as I tried to wade through these texts without the help of a teacher. Here’s Tip Number 1: Read aloud, and read slowly This was something I learned in graduate school when I took a class on Aristotle’s Metaphysics. Throughout the semester, the professor read everything aloud and very slowly before lecturing on it. Not once did he read Aristotle silently the way my other professors would scan a text before commenting on it. At first, I thought he was doing this for the sake of his students, but as we moved through the Metaphysics and Aristotle’s ideas became more obscure, I realized he was doing it for his own sake as well. He was stil

A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider God-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, wrongly believing that he has the Gods on his side.–Aristotle, Politica bk v (ca. 340 BCE)H/T to Harper'sTags: Aristotle, religion, politics

Author: Andrea FalconPaperback: 158 pagesPublisher: Cambridge University Press (October 2005)Language: EnglishISBN: 0521854393(R)Aristotelian scholars have argued that he regarded the natural world, and its study, as possessing a unique structure. This book examines Aristotle's philosophy of nature in this light. Claiming that the natural world exhibits unity without uniformity, it demonstrates that although he systematically investigated nature, Aristotle never forgot to recognize the limitations of natural science. Arguing that his claim led to the conviction that the heavens are made of a unique body, Andrea Falcon's book is essential reading for all students of Aristotle's philosophy of nature.

“Some men turn every quality or art into a means of making money; this they conceive to be the end, and to the promotion of the end all things must contribute.” Aristotle (384 – 322 B.C.) Greek philosopher

TO GIVE AWAY MONEY by ARISTOTLE"To give away money is an easy matter, and in any man's power. But to decide to whom to give it, and how large and when, and for what purpose and how, is neither in every man's power, nor an easy matter. Hence it is that such excellence is rare, praiseworthy, and noble."©2002 - 2007 DifferWorld Pte Ltd All Rights Reserved

ARISTOTLE, ECONOMICS, MONEY, PROFITS, VALUE AND WEALTH by MANOJ SHARMAThe moment an individual's or a group's point of view enters into the public domain accusations (valid or invalid) of inconsistency and contradictions are sure to follow.Aristotle like all the other greats too faced his fair share of criticism. What is important to note is that we are unlikely to ever find a perfect model that works at every level for everyone, everytime. So, to advance we need to adopt what works, discard what does not, to think long term, make adjustments, do so without invalidation towards the cause of discovering consistent holistic principles and living them. In other words we need to maturely seek true value, not pettily dismiss things enbloc for various reasons.Aristotle, amongst many things, brilliantly identified and distinguished two activities which he referred to as Economia and Chrematistike.He identified Economia with any activity that involved the management and running of the househ

"Any one can get angry - that is easy - or give or spend money; but to do this to the right person, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for every one, nor is it easy"Aristotle (384 - 322 B.C.) Greek philosopher
