Synopsis "Metafísica (in Spanish)"

Metafísica es uno de los tratados fundamentales de Aristóteles (384-322 a. C.) y tuvo como génesis un conjunto de escritos independientes, cuya finalidad original era sobre todo educativa. Así pues, por su naturaleza, la Metafísica no puede considerarse tanto la exposición de un sistema perfectamente acabado como una obra que aborda diferentes temas a lo largo de catorce libros. No obstante, su concepción integral acaba dando a luz la ciencia «más allá de la física», es decir, la filosofía primera. La Metafísica no solo es un libro pionero, sino que se trata una de las obras capitales de la filosofía, cuyo peso e influencia son inmensos e inabarcables.

Aristotle (Stagira, 384 BC-Chalcis, 322 BC) was a philosopher, polymath, and Greek scientist born in the city of Stagira, in the north of Ancient Greece. He is considered, along with Plato, the father of Western philosophy. His ideas have had a huge influence on the intellectual history of the West for more than two millennia.

He was a disciple of Plato and other thinkers, such as Eudoxus of Cnidus, during the twenty years he was at the Academy of Athens. Shortly after Plato's death, Aristotle left Athens to be the tutor of Alexander the Great in the Kingdom of Macedonia for almost 5 years. In the last stage of his life, he founded the Lyceum in Athens, where he taught until a year before his death.

Aristotle wrote about 200 works, of which only 31 have been preserved (none of them intended for publication) in the Corpus Aristotelicum on a wide variety of topics, including: logic, metaphysics, philosophy of science, ethics, political philosophy, aesthetics, rhetoric, physics, astronomy, and biology. Aristotle transformed many, if not all, of the areas of knowledge he addressed. He is recognized as the founding father of logic and biology, since although there are reflections and writings on both subjects before him, it is in Aristotle's work that the first systematic investigations are found. Aristotle has also been called the father of political science, zoology, embryology, natural law, scientific method, rhetoric, psychology, realism, criticism, individualism, teleology, and meteorology.
