Discover the ancient Greek philosopher Empedocles, who popularized the idea of the four elements making up the world: fire, earth, air, and water.
Philosophizing shortly after Parmenides and Heraclitus, Empedocles attempts to synthesize all previous philosophy, from Thales to Heraclitus, and he settles on the idea of these four roots and the two forces of love and strife.
All that while claiming to be divine!
