Résumé

Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" is a foundational text in Western moral philosophy, exploring the nature of righteousness and the pursuit of the good life. Written in a clear and methodical style, the work combines theoretical inquiry with practical wisdom, emphasizing the importance of virtue and character. Aristotle introduces the concept of the 'Golden Mean, ' advocating for moderation and balance in human conduct.
Set against the backdrop of classical Greek thought, the text engages with the ethical theories of Socrates and Plato while establishing a distinct approach grounded in empirical observation and human experience. Aristotle, a student of Plato and tutor to Alexander the Great, was deeply influenced by his rich philosophical environment. His empirical approach stemmed from a desire to understand the complexities of human behavior and ethics in the context of the polis, or city-state.
This pursuit led him to compile his lectures on ethics into a comprehensive framework that addresses both individual and societal morality, reflecting his profound understanding of human nature and the pursuit of eudaimonia, or flourishing. This seminal work is essential reading for those interested in ethics, philosophy, and the human condition. Aristotle's insights into virtue ethics continue to resonate, providing timeless guidance on how to achieve personal happiness and contribute to the greater good.
"Nicomachean Ethics" is not only a rich philosophical treatise but also a practical manual for navigating the complexities of moral life.
