PLATO -Student of Socrates -Wrote many books on questions of reality, usually using the voice of Socrates -Wrote the Republic – about what makes a person just. Argues for a city where the Philosopher is king and everyone has their jobs to do and does them -Disagreed with Socrates – very concerned with science and math -Platonic forms

ARISTOTLE -Student of Plato -Kidnapped by King Philip of Macedonia and taught Alexander the Great -Wrote some books; we also have his lecture notes -Wrote about politics, rhetoric, and ethic -Disagreed with Socrates – focused more on philosophizing about this world, since we can observe it -Ultimate Cause -Everyone wants to be happy = Virtue
