Is Aristotle the Father of Logic

I believe so. Aristotle became known as the Father of Logic by demonstrating that logic was more than just an equivalent to verbal reasoning scarce an important tool of investigation, a way to learn everything about everything. He was the first to introduce scientific thought into daily processes. Even today, with hundreds of advances in technology and available resources, scientists find that observations he had documented two-thousand old age agone are correct. For twenty age Aristotle studied with Plato and became a prominent double at his academy.But yet after so many a(prenominal) years of collaboration between the two, many people including Platos nephew Speusippus believed that Aristotles ideals varied greatly from Platos and indeed they did. Plato presumed that the ideal form of an person or sentient being is the result of a sensory world and that every man knew and unsounded his order in life. Whereas Aristotle believed that the form consisted of several characteris tics together as a whole, which eventually was proven and known as DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) as well up as believing that a man should create his own place in the world. Consequently, Aristotle left the academy after Platos death.Several years later he substantial his own school known as the Lyceum at which he taught for thirteen years in a rather peculiar fashion. His lectures were offered to those that were willing to listen as he paced up and down the peripatos outside the school. His works included a vast military of subject matter including physics, biology, psychology, politics and more. In the subject of Logic, he developed the foundation of categories, a way to classify each element of an argument. He further demonstrated that the core of logical thought is a episode of three propositions in which the first and second imply the last, known as a syllogism.These thoughts have stood the test of time and have only been reasonably revised throughout the centuries. It is be lieved that Aristotle wrote four-hundred books in his lifetime. However, his work was hidden from the world for many, many years when he died in 322BC. Only a portion of them were ascertained in 100BC, unfortunately ruined by dampness and moths. Originally interpreted to Athens and then to Rome, his works gained interest and were used as textbooks by Roman scholars and are still an important influence in skill today.Referenceshttp//philosophy.sean.tripod.com/id17.htmhttp//www.philosophypages.com/ph/aris.htmhttp//www.encyclopedia.com/topic/syllogism.aspx1E1-syllogis
