For both Plato and Aristotle artistic mimesis, in contrast to the power of dialectic, is relatively incapable of expressing the character of fundamental reality.

For one thing, Aristotle mentions that plays may corrupt the audience.

For example, in Shakespeare's day, plays were usually expected to follow the advice of Aristotle in his Poetics: that a drama should focus on action, not character.

For example, to cite Cynthia Freeland's catalogue: " Aristotle says that the courage of a man lies in commanding, a woman's lies in obeying ; that " matter yearns for form, as the female for the male and the ugly for the beautiful ;" that women have fewer teeth than men ; that a female is an incomplete male or " as it were, a deformity ": which contributes only matter and not form to the generation of offspring ; that in general " a woman is perhaps an inferior being "; that female characters in a tragedy will be inappropriate if they are too brave or too clever "( Freeland 1994: 145-46 )

For example, following the ideas of Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle, scientists reasoned that a cannonball falls down because its natural position is in the earth ; the sun, the moon, and the stars travel in circles around the earth because it is the nature of heavenly objects to travel in perfect circles.

For Aristotle there are four different ontological dimensions:

For Aristotle, the first cause was the unmoved mover, a being which set the universe into motion without itself being in motion, which has been read as God, particularly when Aristotle's work became prevalent again in the Medieval West.

For example, for Aristotle, the actual entities were the substances, such as Socrates and Bucephalus.

For Plato and Aristotle, dialectic involves persuasion, so when Aristotle says that rhetoric is the antistrophe of dialectic, he means that rhetoric as he uses the term has a domain or scope of application that is parallel to but different from the domain or scope of application of dialectic.

For Aristotle, both practice and theory involve thinking, but the aims are different.

For an expanded account of Zeno's arguments as presented by Aristotle, see Simplicius ' commentary On Aristotle's Physics.

For six years he lectured on mathematics and dialectics, apparently dividing his time between Oxford and Paris, and helped introduce the study of Aristotle.

For instance, the Portuguese word Lisboa becomes Lisbon in English ; the English London becomes Londres in French, Portuguese and Spanish ; and the Greek Ἀριστοτέλης ( Aristotelēs ) becomes Aristotle in English.

For Aristotle these physical elements were the centre of the universe and appropriately Cleopatra heralds her coming death when she proclaims, “ I am fire and air ; my other elements / I give to baser life ,” ( 5. 2. 289-90 ).

For Aristotle, akrasia, " unrestraint ", is distinct from animal-like behavior because it is specific to humans and involves conscious rational thinking about what to do, even though the conclusions of this thinking are not put into practice.

Aristotle uses the concept of a Stentor in his Politics Book 7, Chapter IV saying, " For who can be the general of such a vast multitude, or who the herald, unless he have the voice of a Stentor?

For example a course might be on a book by Aristotle, or a book from the Bible.

For the doctrine of proof, Galen quotes the second Analytic of Theophrastus, in conjunction with that of Aristotle, as the best treatises on that doctrine.

For a political theorist to do this in public was one of Machiavelli's clearest breaks not just with medieval scholasticism, but with the classical tradition of political philosophy, especially the favorite philosopher of Catholicism at the time, Aristotle.

For instance, in Aristotelian physics the effect is not said to be acceleration but to be velocity ( one must push a cart twice as hard in order to have its velocity doubled < ref > Aristotle, Physics, Book VII, part 5, 249 < sup > b </ sup > 30 – 250 < sup > a </ sup > 6 ).

For a complete list of his numerous works, consisting of translations from Greek into Latin ( Plato, Aristotle and the Fathers ) and original essays in Greek ( chiefly theological ) and Latin ( grammatical and rhetorical ), see Fabricius, Bibliotheca Graeca ( ed.

For Aristotle, the question is not " Is X matter?

For one thing, there is a natural belt of rock across the river bed ; ;

For the only time in the opera, words are not set according to their natural inflection ; ;

For so long as death was not violent, it was natural and to be welcomed, making a funeral a feast.

For the Aztec the count by 20s was completely natural.

For example, Pyrethrum ( refers to several Old World plants of the genus Chrysanthemum ) is a natural insecticide with minimal environmental impact.

For example, suppose that each member of the collection X is a nonempty subset of the natural numbers.

For every group G there is a natural group homomorphism G → Aut ( G ) whose image is the group Inn ( G ) of inner automorphisms and whose kernel is the center of G. Thus, if G has trivial center it can be embedded into its own automorphism group.

For example, the positrons produced in natural radioactive decay quickly annihilate themselves with electrons, producing pairs of gamma rays, a process exploited in positron emission tomography.

For Hume, philosophy can be split into two general parts: natural philosophy and the philosophy of human nature ( or, as he calls it, " moral philosophy ").

For most of human history, pearls were the ultimate precious beads of natural origin because of their rarity, although the pearl-culturing process has now made them far more common.

For example, the division example above is surjective ( or onto ) because every rational number may be expressed as a quotient of an integer and a natural number.

For example, the division example above may also be interpreted as a partial binary function from Z and N to Q, where N is the set of all natural numbers, including zero.

For natural numbers ( taken to include 0 ) n and k, the binomial coefficient can be defined as the coefficient of the monomial X < sup > k </ sup > in the expansion of.

Some sets are infinite ; these sets have more than n elements for any integer n. For example, the set of natural numbers, denotable by, has infinitely many elements, and we cannot use any normal number to give its size.

For example, Georg Cantor ( who introduced this concept ) demonstrated that the real numbers cannot be put into one-to-one correspondence with the natural numbers ( non-negative integers ), and therefore that the set of real numbers has a greater cardinality than the set of natural numbers.

* For every natural number, the-sphere is compact.

For each specific consistent effectively represented axiomatic system for the natural numbers, such as Peano arithmetic, there exists a constant N such that no bit of Ω after the Nth can be proven to be one or zero within that system.

For example, the cofinality of ω² is ω, because the sequence ω · m ( where m ranges over the natural numbers ) tends to ω² ; but, more generally, any countable limit ordinal has cofinality ω.

For this reason, its practice violated the natural laws of medicine, transforming health care practitioners into those who harm rather than heal.

For example, by inoculating in the months of milder climate, one had a better chance of fighting the infection and becoming immune instead of the alternative: natural exposure to the disease during harsher weather, when the body's defenses were already challenged.

For example, philosopher John D. Kenyon writes: Reason might manage to raise a doubt about the truth of a conclusion of natural inductive inference just for a moment in the study, but the forces of nature will soon overcome that artificial skepticism, and the sheer agreeableness of animal faith will protect us from excessive caution and sterile suspension of belief.

For instance, we could define natural number as follows ( after Peano ):

For example, Darwinism may be used to refer to Darwin's proposed mechanism of natural selection, in comparison to more recent mechanisms such as genetic drift and gene flow.

For example, while burning an area of fairly thick forest and thus turning it into a more open, grassy environment might reduce the viability of a large browser ( an animal that eats leaves and shoots rather than grasses ), the reverse could also be true: removing the browsing animals ( by eating them, or by any other means ) within a few years produces a very thick undergrowth which, when a fire eventually starts through natural causes ( as fires tend to do every few hundred years ), burns with greater than usual ferocity.
