Aristotle

By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: London; Methuen and Co. Ltd.; 1923Description: 352pDDC classification:
  • 185 ROS
Summary: There are several types of book about Aristotle which it would be interesting to write and perhaps not unprofitable to read. In one, it might be shown haw almost the whole of his thought is a mosaic of borrowings from his predecessors, and yet is transformed by the force of his genius into a strikingly original system. In another, the attempt might be made to trace the chronological development of his thought; this has recently been done with marked success by Prof. W. Jaeger, in a book to which I should have owned much more had it reached me before mine was in the press.
