There is little experience or knowledge to fulfill these responsibilities: "In small families, the ability to estimate the wife's family use may mean the difference between survival and hunger." How do you accomplish these tasks and also carry out these tasks in your estate to ensure that your family will continue to function and prosper? Even if young and mature, you can see that Roman women play an important role in Roman society and family.
In order to call people "a rational existence", the definition of the term "rationality" is unfair. Humans have reasonable thoughts, but this is not their essence. Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains. Humans often use their brains to streamline targeted instincts, their preconceptions, and their emotional desires - human beings are streamlining their existence. This may be more appropriate in spiritual and philosophical forums, but in any case, unless it means that our instincts are like eating, drinking and diversity, I really can say " Do you believe that there is humanity? Regarding whether it is good or bad, I think that it is necessary "beyond good and evil" as Nietzsche said. They are totally subjective. Basically, we all have their own opinions, we are watching what things should be and what they should be.
We are the existence of reason. For Greeks - And, to be honest, most cultures, including our contemporary culture - make us humans our rationality and humans. We are creative, expressive, knowledgeable and reasonable. Sometimes we may not want to exercise our thought, but the majority of our existence is related to our reasonable animals. You can see Aristotle's taxonomic approach. Instead of retiring from an ideal man, he will focus on the specific things that make us certain. Even answering his scientific doubts is not easy to miss how magnificent and innovative his approach is.
Aristotle defines human being as a reasonable existence. Today, many people may not agree with this definition, but reason is an important part of mankind. It is difficult to define rational things, but we do not define it. Thinking is essentially a part of humanity. Thoughts are displayed in various fields such as science, philosophy, religion, politics, ethics, lifestyle, culture. All of these are not separate compartments, but they are interrelated and are necessary to develop the whole human life.
