Question

Moral teachings and their Philosophy

Answer 1

why dont you google it for each.. to much here to write about each.. there are fabulous sites online for each.

Answer 2

I majored in Philosophy in college. Yes, by all means, I have heard of them. Alexander the Great was Aristotle's pupil. He actually bought Aristotle an elephant as a gift once. Plato is just awesome. All of the above philosophers are exceptional. Too bad we don't have any of Socrates' actual writings.

Answer 3

Socrates died for the right to ask questions. He believed in examining things, he refused to take answers based on dogma or immutable truths, he believed that we have the capacity to get the right answers if we keep on asking the right questions.

Plato is Socrates' student, Plato is better known for writing about politics as the highest form of human expression (politics doesn't have negative connotation in his day), he wrote about forms of government and the ideal state.

Nietschze wrote about the rise of the supermen. It is about men who search for truth in the face of growing unbelief in religion. It is mostly about searching for new standards of morality (specially at a time that people who claim to represent God do not set good examples). He is also known for his Will to Power... it is difficult to talk about Nietschze as interpreters seldom agree on what he tried to say, and anything I tell you about him is bound to have disagreement elsewhere.

Rousseau, wrote a lot about the perfect natural state of man and how society corrupted man's natural nobility and integrity. He is best known by the social contract theory in which governments are formed by agreement between men and not divinely given as believed in his day. (which is why we have written constitutions... etc...)

I'm not a big fan of the others, and many of their views are strongly debatable, so I need not say more and just use your search engine to research. You can also try wikipedia.
