Paper Summary:

Aristotle and Plato had conflicting views on the aspect of human nature and what governed it, as well as what formed the basis of human nature. This paper examines the bases of their philosophies by looking at their writings.

From the Paper:

"From these foundations, happiness was often discussed, and both Aristotle and Plato wrote extensively on its correlation to human nature. Aristotle had a naturalist-perfectionist view of human nature that contradicted Plato's idea of a morality-virtue system that governed human nature that appears to be more plausible than Aristotle's notion regarding human nature."
