I'd put it the other way around. Philosophy is a Greek word, and the collection of subjects it encompasses is part of a tradition inherited from the Greeks (as similar think applies to Religion and the Romans). However, other people do have the same concerns, though they might package it differently. So logic is hard to escape and was studied everywhere, but whether it was studied alongside Grammar, Metaphysics or Mathematics -- well that could vary a bit. |

PS: There is a great comedy about this stuff from the roman republic which has a great scene that roughly translates as: A: Yay communism! B: Who would work the fields? A: Why the slaves of course! Anyway, stripped from context it's really easy to misread many of their arguments.
