Plato founded his famous teaching Academy in Athens ca. 387 BC. In 367, the ambitious and intellectually gifted Aristotle, then age 17, journeyed from his native city of Stagira, in Northern Greece, to Athens and Plato's Academy -- much as a promising young scholar today might travel to Cambridge or Oxford for university studies. Aristotle's decision may have been based on Plato's fame and reputation as the leading philosopher of the times. Aristotle remained connected with Plato's Academy for 20 years, until Plato's death. Shortly thereafter, Aristotle traveled to Macedonia to serve (for seven years) as tutor to the young Alexander the great.
