Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aristotle's ethics are the most important in the history of Western philosophy, but little has been said about the reception of his ethics by his many successors.

The resulting volume will be a valuable source of information and arguments for anyone working in the history of ethics.

Book Synopsis Perception in Aristotle’s Ethics by : Eve Rabinoff
Download or read book Perception in Aristotle’s Ethics written by Eve Rabinoff and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perception in Aristotle's Ethics seeks to demonstrate that living an ethical life requires a mode of perception that is best called ethical perception. Specifically, drawing primarily on Aristotle’s accounts of perception and ethics in De anima and Nicomachean Ethics, Eve Rabinoff argues that the faculty of perception (aisthesis), which is often thought to be an entirely physical phenomenon, is informed by intellect and has an ethical dimension insofar as it involves the perception of particulars in their ethical significance, as things that are good or bad in themselves and as occasions to act. Further, she contends, virtuous action requires this ethical perception, according to Aristotle, and ethical development consists in the achievement of the harmony of the intellectual and perceptual, rational and nonrational, parts of the soul. Rabinoff's project is philosophically motivated both by the details of Aristotle’s thought and more generally by an increasing philosophical awareness that the ethical agent is an embodied, situated individual, rather than primarily a disembodied, abstract rational will.

Book Synopsis Phantasia in Aristotle's Ethics by : Jakob Leth Fink
Download or read book Phantasia in Aristotle's Ethics written by Jakob Leth Fink and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-27 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle suggests that a moral principle 'does not immediately appear to the man who has been corrupted by pleasure or pain'. Phantasia in Aristotle's Ethics investigates his claim and its reception in ancient and medieval Aristotelian traditions, including Arabic, Greek, Hebrew and Latin. While contemporary commentators on the Ethics have overlooked Aristotle's remark, his ancient and medieval interpreters made substantial contributions towards a clarification of the claim's meaning and relevance. Even when the hazards of transmission have left no explicit comments on this particular passage, as is the case in the Arabic tradition, medieval responders still offer valuable interpretations of phantasia (appearance) and its role in ethical deliberation and action. This volume casts light on these readings, showing how the distant voices from the medieval Arabic, Greek, Hebrew and Latin Aristotelian traditions still contribute to contemporary debate concerning phantasia, motivation and deliberation in Aristotle's Ethics.
Book Synopsis Aristotle’s “Nicomachean Ethics” by : Otfried Höffe
Download or read book Aristotle’s “Nicomachean Ethics” written by Otfried Höffe and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-10-07 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone interested in theories of moral or human practice will find in Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics one of the few basic models relevant through to today. At the centre of his analysis, both sober and cautious, are such concepts as happiness, virtue, choice, prudence, incontinence, pleasure and friendship. Aristotle’s arguments are by no means of merely historical interest, but continue to exert a key influence on present-day ethical debate.
Book Synopsis The Reception of Greek Ethics in Late Antiquity and Byzantium by : Sophia Xenophontos
Download or read book The Reception of Greek Ethics in Late Antiquity and Byzantium written by Sophia Xenophontos and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-24 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authored by an interdisciplinary team of experts, including historians, classicists, philosophers and theologians, this original collection of essays offers the first authoritative analysis of the multifaceted reception of Greek ethics in late antiquity and Byzantium (ca. 3rd-14th c.), opening up a hitherto under-explored topic in the history of Greek philosophy. The essays discuss the sophisticated ways in which moral themes and controversies from antiquity were reinvigorated and transformed by later authors to align with their philosophical and religious outlook in each period. Topics examined range from ethics and politics in Neoplatonism and ethos in the context of rhetorical theory and performance to textual exegesis on Aristotelian ethics. The volume will appeal to scholars and students in philosophy, classics, patristic theology, and those working on the history of education and the development of Greek ethics.
