If you had no issue with Plato, Aristotle should be a breeze to understand.

pretty sure he is refering to “x is the presedence of y” repeated for forever. the basic logical stuff he does which is kind of boring.

maybe try reading the less dry Aristotle stuff like his discourse on the polis and political theory? thats a lot easier to digest.

Plato was wrong on so many things if not everything.

It's because Aristotle is just lecture notes. His dialogues were lost and they were supposedly very good.

Plato wrote in poetry, Aristotle was an autistic academic through and through.

I never had a class with 400 pages of lecture notes. That's called a textbook.

I refuse to believe thinker as high-profile as Aristotle would have had every single one of his works lost to time.

Plato is better than Aristotle any way.

That is because Aristotle never existed and was invented by Arabs during the post-classical era.

Mortimer J Adler's Aristotle for Everybody is a very good introduction.
