The legacy and influence of Aristotle has been almost without comparison in the history of European philosophy, so much so that deviating from his thought during the Middle Ages would have been met with animosity and ridicule. His reign of “over a millennium of intellectual history came to an end only with the audacious irreverence of Occam and Ramus, the experimental science of Roger Bacon, and the innovating philosophy of Francis Bacon.” - Will Durant

As with many of my videos I can never repay the debt I owe to Will and Ariel Durant, many of their works have been invaluable in collecting information for the composition of these videos as well as inspiring my own love of philosophy.
