| | Aristotle (384-322 BC). |
 | | 1 Aristotle was still plugging away at Plato's Academy some twenty years later, when, in 348 BC, Plato died. |
 | | His young student, however, had little regard for "logic choppers," and few, if any, of Aristotle's ideals rubbed off on Alexander the Great (356-323 BC). |
 | | At Alexander's death, 323 BC, Aristotle found himself connected to the wrong crowd; he fled Athens, and -- just in time -- for charges of "impiety" were brought against him; the same charges, which, 76 years earlier, had led to the death of Socrates. |
