Aristotle, son of the physician Nicomachus, was born in Stagira in 384 BC. For the first years of his life, information is scarce. At the age of seventeen, he went to Athens to study at the Platonic Academy. He remained there for twenty years, from 367 to 348 BC, when Plato died. Then Aristotle left for Assos in Troas and after a three-year stay there, he went to Lesbos and then to Macedonia, where he took on the education of the royal heir, Alexander.
When his student ascended to the throne, Aristotle settled in Athens and founded his school, the Lyceum. After Alexander's death (323 BC), the philosopher's stay in Athens became difficult. He was forced to flee to Chalcis, his mother's homeland, where he died in 322.
A universal mind, Aristotle created a vast and valuable philosophical and scientific work. Epistemology, logic, theology, physics, biology, psychology, ethics, political philosophy, aesthetics are the main fields of knowledge he explored and studied. The Alexandrian Hermippus estimated Aristotle's works at 400. To us have survived lists that include 143 titles of his works. Diogenes Laertius estimated the number of lines in Aristotelian writings at 440,000. The impact of his work on the formation of global thought was, for centuries, and remains, profound.
