Philosophers of Ancient Greece 1. Pythagoras—taught that the essence of the universe was in music and numbers. 2. Socrates—believed that the goal of education was to improve the individual. He also believed in the individual’s ability to reason and questioned authority.

Plato—the Greatest Philosopher of Western Civilization, he believed that a higher world of eternal Forms has always existed and that the objects that we perceive with our senses are simply reflections or shadows of the ideal Forms. He did not trust the workings of democracy, but he believed that men and women should have the same education and equal access to all positions. 4. Aristotle—did not believe in Plato’s theory of ideal forms. He believed that by examining objects, we could perceive their form. But he did not believe that the forms existed in a separate, higher world of reality. He did try to create an ideal form of government. He tried to find the best form of government by analyzing existing governments.
