Peripateticism

Peripateticism is a philosophical tradition that originated with Aristotle, emphasizing learning through active exploration and discussion. Practitioners often engaged in walking while talking, fostering observation and inquiry. Historically, it involves educators who move from place to place, teaching and debating ideas, rather than staying fixed in one location. The term reflects a lifestyle centered on travel, curiosity, and an experiential approach to knowledge, promoting active engagement with the world as a means of understanding complex concepts and developing critical thinking skills.
