The Nicomachean Ethics - Aristotle

Descriere

Aristotle (384-322 BC) was born in the Macedonian city of Stagira. He studied in Plato's Academy in Athens and later became tutor to Alexander the Great before establishing his own school in Athens, called the Lyceum. His writings, which were of extraordinary range, profoundly affected the whole course of ancient, medieval, and modern philosophy. Many of them have survived, including The Nicomachean Ethics , Politics , and Poetics , among others. Adam Beresford (translator) is an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Massachusetts, Boston. He previously translated Plato's Protagoras and Meno for Penguin Classics.
