Known as one of the founders of Western philosophy, he devoted his life to learning and teaching. In Plato's view, education is a means of attaining individual and collective justice. The development of knowledge by Plato can be divided into three stages: knowledge of one's own job, knowledge of oneself, and knowledge of the good idea Aristotle contributed to the theory of art in several areas, including dance, music, poetry, architecture, and drama. A variety of philosophical topics were discussed by him, including ethics, metaphysics, immortality, man, mind, and realism. The topics he discussed included the philosophy of mathematics, political philosophy, censorship, and religious philosophy, including atheism, dualism, and pantheism. Rationalism and a priori knowledge were among the ideas he discussed in discussing epistemology. The world we perceive through our senses is changeable, deceptive and Plato's world of ideas is constant and true. Plato defined the psyche as consisting of three aspects: reason, feeling, and appetite. In addition, he discussed the duality of the psyche and the relationship between mind and body. His belief was that the humors of the body have a profound effect on a person's mental state. It was Plato's belief that madness and ignorance were diseases of the mind caused by diseases of the body. https://pcweb.info/platos-contributions/?lang=en
