From the textbook, describe how Raphael, in his great painting
School of Athens
,
depicted Plato and Aristotle.
Plato and Aristotle are depicted front and center, with Plato pointing up and Aristotle
pointing horizontally. This indicates two ways of understanding truth. Plato's method
points to God as the knower of all absolutes (ultimate truths are, therefore, present),
while Aristotle's method indicates that truth is observed through interaction with the world
and its circumstances and time period.
