Development Of Greek Philosophy

Greek philosophical system emerged because of the following thinkers Thales, Pythagoras, Heraclitus, Parmenides, Socrates, Plato, and last but non least, Aristotle (Bennagen, 2000). This paper entitled, Development of Greek philosophical system intends to describe the thinkers involved, key schools, as wellnessy as their ideas. First stop is Thales, who emerged in 610 to 546 BC (Bennagen, 2000). He is said to be the first philosopher because of the fact that he motivate people to think that the world in all make up of pee (Bennagen, 2000).Second is Pythagoras, who came about in 582 to 507 BC (Bennagen, 2000). For Pythagoras, digit is the most essential thing in life (Bennagen, 2000). It was him who established the relationship amongst angles and sides of the right triangle which he afterwards technically referred to as the Pythagorean Theorem (Bennagen, 2000). three is Heraclitus, who presented itself from 535 to 475 BC (Bennagen, 2000). For him, everything continuously sw ops and that stability does not exist (Bennagen, 2000). True enough because regular those stable things, as they appear to be, are not (Bennagen, 2000).Examples include neutrons, electrons, and quarks (Bennagen, 2000). Fourth is Parmenides, who made himself known from 610 to 547 BC (Bennagen, 2000). He was the forefather of the school known as Eleatics (Bennagen, 2000). For him, change is unreal, it is merely an illusion (Bennagen, 2000). In plus to that, for him, universe or being is everlasting, fixed, and single(a) (Bennagen, 2000). He warns us that we should not ever trust our senses when it comes to what reality is (Bennagen, 2000). Fifth is Socrates, who emerged in 469 to 399 BC (Bennagen, 2000).Socrates focused on the health of the soul and thus, he motivated people to look further into ethics or morality instead of nature as the first four philosophers were deeply elicit in (Bennagen, 2000). Sixth is Plato (427 to 347 BC) who believes that reality is carve up into t wo the perfect and imperfect (Bennagen, 2000). He also presented his standard state and ideal leader to show his definition of reality (Bennagen, 2000). Last but not least is Aristotle who went to study things further using his senses, thence discovering science itself (Bennagen, 2000).ReferenceBennagen, P. (2000).
