I'm definitely going to give Aristotle Vampire another go. Not revising the draft I have now, but removing all the vampire society stuff so there's only maybe a couple dozen vampires in the world and they're only characters if Aristotle needs to interact with them for some reason, so the entire focus is on Aristotle and Alex. This may be too narrow and plot-less, but it's worth trying. The weather...

Philosophical Discussion - and Vampires (27 Tamuz 5769)

... The Greek thing is on hold while the 3 companies involved sort out the revisions they want me to make based on the season 3 premiere (or not), so I've been working hard at the other Greek thing, Aristotle Vampire. The long story short: I decided to rewrite it, only to discover that the new text wasn't necessarily better than the old text, and frustrated with my writing abilities, I used the text...

Themistius on Plato, Aristotle, Epicurus, etc.

When passing from the Academy to the Lyceum, he did not change his clothes; he would often first make a sacrifice to Aristotle and then end by worshipping Plato. He always got angry at those who actually tried to build a dividing wall between the two [sacred] enclosures and to separate them. For he felt that Aristotle’s philosophy is an excellent preliminary rite to Plato’s frenzy and, at the same...

Pre-Thomistic sources for St. Thomas

In our ongoing debates concerning the agent intellect in Aristotle and Aquinas, anosognosia previously inquired why, if Aristotle really asserted that each human soul possesses an agent intellect as one of its parts, this position would be absent from the commentary tradition for so long and then suddenly crop up in Aquinas. I admitted ignorance to whether there were precursors to the...

Aristotle and Battlestar Galactica

In my Renaissance Art class, we recently had a discussion question about how a modern movie or television program might fit into Aristotle's ideas about what makes a good drama. Naturally, I used the best example I could think of: Battlestar Galactica. I thought others might enjoy reading my answer, so in addition to posting it on my class forum, I'm posting it here. Well, of course I have to talk...

Excerpts from Aristotle

A friend of mine told me that for Aristotle, the proper age for marriage is thirty-seven for a male and eighteen for a female. I looked it up and—lo and behold—he was right: Women should marry when they are about eighteen years of age, and men at thirty-seven; when they are in the prime of life, and the decline in the powers of both will coincide. ( Politics 1335a28-30) What a pervert, that Stagirite...

Aristotle (and Aquinas) on the agent intellect: REVISITED

This is a response to anosognosia ’s astute comments upon our earlier discussions concerning the agent intellect in Aristotle and Aquinas. Anyone else with an interest in this discussion may chime in as they please. In what follows, references are to Aristotle’s On the Soul unless otherwise indicated. *T = Each human soul possesses an agent intellect as one of its parts, faculties, powers...

Aristotle

Aristotle   Aristotle was one of the greatest philosophical minds ever to be conceived on the planet. In 384bc he was born in Stagira in north Greece. Aristotle touched on an enormous range of philosophical problems, ranging from biology to physics. This is Aristotle’s saying’s on his Theory of Tragedy.   Aristotle had many theories but one that stands out more in modern society is his theory...

Pascal

...of justice need not be understood as opposed to each other. The egoism versus altruism opposition only makes sense when we reject the understanding of prudence and justice bequeathed to us by Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Augustine, Philip the Chancellor, Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, and others. (But why do that?) Which brings me to my final point. One of the merits of Pascal’s Wager is that it...

I might actually make a career out of this... (16 Adar 5769)

...plot stuff, but book 3 I really want to stand my ground on, because if we get over the hill of book 3, all the other books afterward will look normal in comparison. 2. My agent wrote back about the Aristotle novel. She likes it, but she's not 100% on it. Since she knows books 2 and 3 already exist and book 4 is in the works, she asked to see 2 and 3, to see if it might be worth it to pursue it because...
