Description
Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics is a foundational work in ethics that has engaged readers across centuries and civilizations. This English-language translation by Robert C. Bartlett and Susan D. Collins offers a remarkably faithful rendering of Aristotle's original text, with copious notes and a glossary to provide context and further explanation. The Nicomachean Ethics explores central ideas in ethics, including the pursuit of happiness as the end of human endeavor, the formation of moral virtue through action and habituation, and the importance of prudence in good action. The translation is accompanied by an introduction and an interpretive essay that sketch central arguments of the work and its significance within Aristotle's broader political philosophy. This new edition will take its place as a standard English-language translation, providing readers with a valuable resource for understanding one of the most influential works in Western philosophical thought.
