“The influence of Plato and Aristotle on Leo Strauss”

Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2022, Vol 5, Issue 04

Abstract

The article deals with the influence of Plato and Aristotle on the philosophical work and thought of Leo Strauss. Significant issues are approached, which are directly related to the Platonic and Aristotelian views of politics, always in connection with the direct crisis of nihilism brought about by the age of modernity. The interpretations given should be taken as a result of Strauss's own research into the history of philosophy in an attempt to deal with political problems philosophically. Given that Strauss's approach to Platonic and Aristotelian texts is unorthodox, the philosopher attempts to address complex political issues through the scope of their reinterpretation in a selectively synthetic way.
