Aristotle dealt with man more with a certain understanding of nature and from this point of view, he determined the distinguishing feature of ideal man as superior thinking ability. Nietzsche, on the other hand, thought of man as a being with an inexhaustible will to power and determined the distinctive feature of his ideal man as being a strong man.
