[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that examines the attitudes of Plato and Aristotle toward art. The writer argues that while they both made the fundamental assumption that art is a form of mimesis, the imitative function that is inherent in all forms of art provoked Plato's disdain, but provoked Aristotle's curiosity.

Aristotle and Plato on Citizenship
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing the views of these two philosophers on what constitutes citizenship in the society and who is eligible for being considered to be a true citizen. In essence, Aristotle settled on two classes: the privileged and those who served them. Those who served had no true right to determine their own destinies at all. Aristotle's true citizen could be defined as one who in reality contributed little or nothing to the society aside from the grace of his presence and existence. Plato took a much more practical view of citizenship and the need for the participation of all individuals in at least some aspect of the larger society. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Aristotle and the Good Stuff
[ send me this paper ]
(7 pp) One of the things, that seems to happen whenever we think of philosophy, is this perverse mental block that flings itself into the air, calling something similar to, "Danger! Will Robinson. Danger! Danger!" Many of us get stuck there - take the warning and run the opposite direction. Take a deep breath, tell yourself, that thinking is not harmful to your heath and give this Greek guy a chance. This discussion will focus on some of the "good stuff:" the ideas of reason, virtue, and happiness as defined by Aristotle.
