Journal Title: Вісник Львівського університету - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue
Abstract
Works of ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle devoted to the study of wildlife have been investigated. Socio-cultural preconditions of the thinker’s creative work have been analyzed. On this basis, it has been concluded on possibility and necessity to consider Aristotle a founder of a number of specific sciences, in particular, biology and zoology, and of a new, at that time, epistemic method of theorizing.
