Celebration  "2016 Aristotle Anniversary Year"

Aristotle (384—322 B.C.E.)

            2400 year of Aristotle birth

UNESCO General Conference proclaimed 2016 the Aristotle Anniversary Year. The decision was taken during the 38th session of the Conference, which was held in Paris at the suggestion of the Greek National Commission.

The main reason is that the coming year will mark 2400 years since the birth of the ancient Greek philosopher.

Leading Aristotle researchers will present studies on his work, not only at  the university that is named after him but also in ancient Stagira of Halkidiki, where he was born in the year 384 BC as well as in ancient Mieza, where he taught Alexander the Great.
