What did Aristotle think about dualism?

Aristotle did not think in terms like dualism. But Aristotle grew up in a Hellenist society that was built around slavery. Aristotle tried to make sense of this reality. Aristotle invented a god-factor 'anima' and supposed that slaves (barbarians) had little god-factor and were born to serve Master with much god-factor. For Aristotle slaves were similar to present day cows, that are born to produce milk for farmers. Not worth much attention.


What was Aristotle's inheritance theory?

Aristotle's inheritance theory, primarily discussed in his work "Physics," posits that traits are passed from parents to offspring through a process he termed "epigenesis." He believed that the male contributes the form or essence of the offspring, while the female provides the matter. This theory emphasizes the importance of both parents in the development of the next generation, a precursor to modern understandings of genetics, although it lacked the scientific rigor found in contemporary biology. Aristotle's views laid the groundwork for later explorations of heredity and reproduction.
