Summary/Abstract: Modern approach to scholastics and peripatetics in the history of philosophy (the introduction includes an analysis of H. Struve, W. Wąsik and W. Tatarkiewicz’s research) manifested itself in interpretations of Historia. The theory of two Aristotles (the authentic one and one distorted in the Middle Ages) brought about the interpretation of the attack against Stagiryte in Historia as an attack against scholastics only. Krasicki criticized Aristotle in the context of Greek philosophical schools. Furthermore, he presented the great philosopher as a low man focused only on earthly targets.
