Abstract
aristotle was born into a privileged family because his father was the "personal physician to the Macedonian king, Amyntas II." (Lindberg 45) Since they were always around royalty and high-status people, aristotle entered into Plato's Academy in Athens when he was seventeen and stayed there until Plato's death 20 years later. After leaving Plato's Academy, aristotle traveled and studied for several years in Asia Minor and various islands. His travels brought about many theories, which he would later refine and publish. He came up with a number of important and long-lasting theories that paved the way for future philosophers and physical scientists to draw their own conclusions off as well as improve upon.
