PHILOSOPHY FRIDAY

Today we will be looking at where the following philosophers and their ideas coorespond with the books we have read…

  • Thales and his idea that there is a life force present in everything.
  • Heraclitus and his idea that change is constant.
  • Parmenides and his idea that reality cannot be understood by the senses, but through thought.
  • Empedocles and his idea that the two forces in nature are love and strife.

We might read the pages on Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle and follow up next Friday.

Parmenides by Wolfgang Schmidt (?)
