Theophrastus, Ancient Greek Botanist and Philosopher

Theophrastus of Lesbos (c.371-c.287 BC), Ancient Greek philosopher and botanist. Known as the father of botany, Theophrastus studied with Plato in Athens and then worked with Aristotle at the Lyceum school.

His two surviving botanical works, Enquiry into Plants (Historia Plantarum) and On the Causes of Plants, were an important influence on Renaissance science. There are also surviving works On Moral Characters, On Sense Perception, On Stones, and fragments on Physics and Metaphysics. In philosophy, he studied grammar and language and continued Aristotle's work on logic.
