Logic, Virtue & the Unmoved Mover | Aristotle's Complete Philosophy to to Sleep to

Video Description

What's covered: Logic and how thought works • Metaphysics and the nature of reality • Physics and the science that dominated for centuries • Biology and surprisingly accurate observations • The human mind and consciousness • Ethics, virtue, and the good life • Political philosophy and community • Rhetoric and the art of persuasion • Poetics and narrative theory • His massive historical influence • Where his system completely fails under modern scrutiny This is intellectual history as it should be: rigorous analysis of what Aristotle got right, honest examination of what he got spectacularly wrong, scholarly debates that still rage today, and why his ideas matter (or don't) in the twenty-first century. Perfect for anyone seriously interested in philosophy, intellectual history, or understanding the foundations of how we think about science, ethics, politics, and knowledge itself. 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:21 The Empirical Revolution, How Aristotle Rebuilt Philosophy From Observation 00:12:55 Logic and the Architecture of Thought 00:26:26 Metaphysics ‎ Substance, Essence, and What Really Exists 00:42:36 The Four Causes and How Explanation Works 01:00:45 Form and Matter, Potentiality and Actuality 01:19:49 Physics, Motion, and Cosmology 01:40:02 Biology and the Science of Life 01:58:46 The Soul, Mind, and Human Nature 02:16:20 Ethics ‎ Virtue, Character, and the Good Life 02:41:07 Political Philosophy and the Science of Community 03:01:58 Rhetoric, Persuasion, and Communication 03:22:29 Poetics, Tragedy, and the Nature of Art 03:43:28 Aristotle's Legacy and His Influence Through History 04:01:32 Where the System Breaks ‎ Modern Critiques and Unresolved Problems
