Questions:

1) Based on information from the video, identify and explain 2 things that Aristotle appears to have been the first person to actually write about in a scientific manner during his time on the island of Lesvos.

2) Leroi closes his film with a quotation from Aristotle's Metaphysics. Reflect on his closing remarks. How would you sum up Aristotle's feelings about doing scientific research--and how that can relate to living a good, happy life.

3) Review the attached PDF on Aristotle's philosophical assumptions and how they differed from those of Plato. Why, in your opinion, did Plato have no interest in the natural or material world around him? Do you feel that ignoring the physical (or natural) world prevented Plato from living a happy life--as Aristotle defined it? Why/why not? Briefly explain your thoughts.
