I'm honestly thinking less of the doctrine itself and more just the different milieus in which they seemed to flourish. I associate Platonism and Neoplatonism with the late Roman Empire and the Renaissance when Augustine and the Medicis were massive drunks or horndogs, whereas I associate Scholasticism/Aristotle with ascetic English monks in habits.

I know that's a really huge oversimplification of history but they are the archetypes that exist in my mind and I want to know why that is.
