Human Nature and Human Society in the "Nicomachean Ethics"

Více o knize

Aristotle's exploration of virtue in the Nicomachean Ethics emphasizes the interconnectedness of individual actions and societal well-being. The book's title may reference either his father or son, with some suggesting Aristotle's son edited it posthumously. Central to Aristotle's philosophy is the idea that happiness is the ultimate goal of human activity, serving as an end in itself, unlike other pursuits that are merely means to further ends. This framework highlights the significance of virtuous living for both individuals and the broader community.
