History Shorts: Aristotle's Death (322 B.C.)

Aristotle was the universal philosopher. Plato’s student covered every conceivable topic including physics, metaphysics, politics, rhetoric, theater, music, medicine, astronomy, biology, and ethics. His influence extended long beyond his death. In fact, scholars looked to Aristotle for guidance well into the Renaissance. Some of his scientific observations were not confirmed until the 19th century. His work is still examined and studied to this day.
