Philosophy
In my FCIQ class we discussed what were the definition of philosophy. The definition of philosophy was based on many people throughout many cultures which was how well formulated the the question was being asked by the individual. These questions were based on the concern of the nature of reality, happiness, love, government, good and evil, and so on. Also, it is how well of an answer can be backed up through your experiences, virtues, knowledge, wisdom, and the right way to live a very good life. An example is Aristotle who believed that philosophy was based on love of wisdom through possessing in wondering and curiosity. He believes in possessing the power of excellence, the wise one who always the one who was always questioning their authority. The word philosophy comes from a combination of two Greek words which was philos and sophia which means love of wisdom, where you need to desire something in order to love. Also, wisdom is knowledge through the universe. Then there was a group of thinkers that was called Pre-Socratics who was intensely interested in nature, in know the development of the universe, and figuring out how everything came to live and made. The many works of Philosophers were categorized in 6 themes which were metaphysics, logic, epistemology, ethics, political philosophy, and aesthetics.
