kc1027 @kc1027五月病のフリして、イアン・マキューアンとカズオ・イシグロを読む時間を確保しなければならない。六月には、商圏調査と称してガルシア・マルケスとサルマン・ラシュディを読むためにカフェに入り浸ろう。七月は早めの夏休みを分散して取ってディックとかバラードとかソラリスを読むことに決めた。
Aristotle ( 384B.C.-322B.C.) was a Greek philosopher whose system of logical analysis -
formed one of the main bases of the philosophical thought of Western civilization. The "ladder of nature" , in which all natural objects -
had their place, was central to his thinking. He was a founder of a school (Lyceum) outside Athens and a pupil of Plato -
as well as the tutor of Alexander the Great. He is well-known as "the Father of all the sciences",
since his works cover a vast range of subjects, including logic, ethics, metaphysics, politics, biology and physics, -
constituting the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy.
Later, his philosophical work influenced Islamic and Christian medieval philosophies.
Financial Times @FinancialTimesFrancis Bacon (1561-1626) was an English Renaissance natural philosopher and the Father of empiricism -
who contributed greatly to the establishment of modern philosophy along with Descartes..
He created a method of acquiring scientific knowledge, based on observation and experiment, -
which has been a basic tool of scientists ever since.Known as the 'inductive method', it has formed general laws and principles -
based on individual instances. Bacon attempted to properly understand and conquer nature, -
which is summed up in the phrase 'knowledge is power.' His philosophy is characterized -
by the elimination of preconceived notions called 'idola' or idols.
