Aristotle on the Perfect Life

Viac o knihe

The exploration of Aristotle's views on happiness reveals a pivotal debate regarding whether it is rooted in the exercise of virtues or found through philosophical contemplation. Anthony Kenny revisits this discourse, building on his previous work to argue for the significance of Aristotle's Eudemian Ethics alongside the Nicomachean Ethics. He proposes that a balanced interpretation of both texts allows admirers of Aristotle to maintain their appreciation while engaging with the complexities of his ethical framework.
