Abstract

Western philosophy, "ontology" by Aristotle ​​to establish the philosophy of the approach. This study carried out, is to try to analyze the "I" have to correspond to the book of Western philosophy of "ontology" of philosophy of approach. This article from the "I" of information to start, and tried in recent years, China's Hubei Province since Guodian Chu bamboo slips unearthed in the 'I', discover and play without changes to the study of classical philosophy. Through this discussion, I found that "I" philosophy, in the "there" issue request, showing a very different point of view and Aristotle. In western philosophy, ontology is a special investigative method established by Aristotle. This essay would like to look into whether or not the ontological method is suitable for use in analyzing the philosophy of Lao Zi. The material for this endeavor is the recently unearthed "Guo Dian 'volumes of the Lao Zi found in Hubei. Through these volumes, and the use of the ontological method, we have the basis for an investigation into the philosophy of some ancient texts. It is my estimation, after going over the two texts, that there are some marked differences in the ontological philosophies of Lao Zi and Aristotle.
