Aristotle uses logic to observe the art of poetry and give it credibility in society as an art form. Using many poetic references from his own day he masterfully defends the use of poetic voice and also gives the thinking behind it and what kind of creative genius it is. He next argues and defends the use of categories in human thinking. He shows that putting labels on the wonders around us help us to sort them out and remember them for what they really are and mean to us as a society.

Autorenporträt
Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and polymath during the Classical period in Ancient Greece. For twenty years he studied at Athens at the Academy of Plato, on whose death in 347 he left, and some time later became tutor to Alexander the Great. On Alexander's succession to the throne of Macedonia in 336, Aristotle returned to Athens and established his school and research institute, the Lyceum. After Alexander's death he was driven out of Athens and fled to Chalcis in Euboea where he died in 322. His writings profoundly affected the whole course of ancient and medieval philosophy. From his lessons, the West acquired its scholarly vocabulary, just as issues and strategies for request. Accordingly, his way of thinking has applied an exceptional effect on pretty much every type of information in the West and it keeps on being a subject of contemporary philosophical conversation.
