《在咖啡馆遇见亚里士多德》内容简介:亚里士多德是个百科全书式的学者,在他死后两千多年的今天,我们仍然受到亚里士多德学派思想的影响。当我们使用“实质”与“意外”,“潜在”与“实际”,“理论”与“实践”这些词时,我们说的正是亚里士多德的语言。亚里士多德一生都没喝过咖啡,也没尝过火鸡、番茄和烟草的味道,在他生命的最后一年,让我们跟他约在埃维厄岛的庄园,和他一起喝杯咖啡吧!他的生活是怎样的呢?他为何会为奴隶制辩护?他为何觉得女人天生不适合作决定?他相信神和神性吗?他是教徒吗?他是怎样看待死亡的?把你想问的都提出来吧,他会知无不言,言无不尽。

版权页: man can ever be found,absolute monarchy is,in point of hard political fact,athoroughly vicious form of government.Philip was absolute monarch in Macedonia:if he'd read my Politics,would he have said“Ah.there's a good friend of my government”?As for Alexander,look at the Politics again.I claim for reasons I won't bother you with-that the very notion of a political empire is an absurdity.Alexander's empire covered the whole of Greece and vast tracts ofAsia.I’ve never spoken in support of it-I've denounced it.If that's being pro.Macedonian.what doyou have to do to be anti? My views on monarchy and empire are obvious enough,and I don’t claim anyparticular credit for setting them out.I don't cla.im any particular courage either-incase you suspect me of virtues as well as vices that I don't possess.Neither Philipnor Alexander were great readers,and in any case if they'd read my Politics theywouldn’t have cared a jot.Oh,Philip might have guffawed,and Alexander mighthave stamped his elegant little foot.But cared? Why should they have cared?Words,words,words-they mean nothing in the courts of the mighty.But you were not just a man of words.You once said that"man is by nature apolitical animal."Didn't you follow your human nature and take an active part inpaliticnl life? The aphorism's mine-though people tend to forget a better one:“Man is more givento copulation than to politics.”(Never take aphorisms literally-not even that one.) But no,I’ve never engaged in political activities.
