Aztec philosophy : ウィキペディア英語版 | Aztec philosophy
Aztec philosophy was the school of philosophy developed by the Aztec Empire. The Aztecs had a well-developed school of philosophy, perhaps the most developed in the Americas and in many ways comparable to Greek philosophy, even amassing more texts than the ancient Greeks.〔Mann, Charles C. ''1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus''. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2005. p, 121.〕 Aztec philosophy focused on dualism, monism, and aesthetics, and Aztec philosophers attempted to answer the main Aztec philosophical question of how to gain stability and balance in an ephemeral world. == Beliefs == Aztec philosophy saw the concept of ''Ometeotl'' as a unity that underlies the universe. Ometeotl forms, shapes, and is all things. Even things in opposition—light and dark, life and death—were seen as expressions of the same unity, Ometeotl. The belief in a unity with dualistic expressions compares with similar dialectical monist ideas in both Western and Eastern philosophies.〔Maffie, James. "Aztec Philosophy." Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy. 2005. ()〕
