Sinopsis
This is a study about the meaning of
happiness (9498016948945953956959957
943945) in Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics (EN).
It is argued that 949801694894595395695
9957943945 in EN means actuality, and it has
to be interpreted through the lenses of two
metaphors used by Aristotle in EN 1.7 1098a21
and 10.6 1176a30 the quotpermeter of
goodquotand the quotimpint of
happiness.quotTo explain the meaning of
happiness Aristotle first has to delineate the
quotpermeter of goodquotof human beings, and he
does that with the help of two criteria the
final end 964941955959962 and the
function of humanity 79569619479599577
936957952961974960959965. These two
criteria are metaphysical concepts which describe
the quotgooquotas the final metaphysical aim
of every person, and the best every person can
be. This metaphysical teleological aim is the
quotactality of the soulquotaccording with
excellence. This is the quotpermeterquotwithin
which Aristotle enquires about 9498016948945
953956959957943945--the good of
humans.quotRemrkable in its erudition, through
detailed analyses and fresh approaches, Sabou's
book offers a new reading of Aristotle's inquiry
on happiness based on only two interpretative
metaphors. The whole architecture of Aristotle's
ethical theory is reconstructed on this basis.
It's a book devoted to critically-minded students
trained to penetrate the
3endless strata of surprising assumptions.quot-Val
