Composed of ten books and based upon Aristotle's own notes from his lectures at the Lyceum, "Nicomachean Ethics" holds a pre-eminent place amongst the ancient treatises on moral philosophy. As opposed to other pre-Socratic works, "Nicomachean Ethics" moves beyond the purely theoretical analysis of moral philosophy by examining its practical application. Aristotelian ethics is concerned with how an individual should best live their life and at its core asserts the idea that the most virtuous life will be the happiest one. By living well, in balance with one's environment, eschewing excess, guiding one's life by reason, Aristotle argues, is the path towards the most virtuous and thus the happiest life. Aristotle's ethical philosophy had a profound influence on ancient civilization, an influence that was sustained until the rise of Christianity which contradicted the premise of Aristotelian ethics by asserting that the most virtuous life was to be achieved instead by living an austere life of sacrifice devoted to God. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, follows the translation of W. D. Ross, and includes an introduction by R. W. Browne.

Voici là un texte majeur de la philosophie occidentale, et le point de départ de presque toutes les réflexions de notre ère, celui que constitue « la philosophie première ».C'est dans cet ouvrage qu'a été rédigé la toute première histoire de la philosophie, une tâche délicate qui consiste pour Aristote à délier ce que ses contemporains jugeaient indissociable, « la philosophie » et « la philo­sophie de Platon », et à faire de cette discipline indispensable un programme à suivre pour toutes les générations futures.Mais c'est aussi dans ce livre que se trouve exprimée la célèbre idée selon laquelle l'étonnement est à l'origine de la philosophie et des découvertes du monde ; car comme n'importe quel enfant, « tous les hommes désirent naturellement connaître » ; aussi ne tardons pas à nous étonner de la science, de la philosophie, et d'un Aristote prolifique.Aristote (384-322 avant notre ère) est l’un des philosophes les plus influents qu'ait jamais connu l’Histoire. Mais s’il est souvent considéré comme tel, il est aussi l'un des rares penseurs à avoir abordé presque tous les domaines de connaissance : biologie, physique, métaphysique, logique, poétique, politique, rhétorique, éthique, économie… Parmi ses ouvrages les plus connus on retrouve : « Métaphysique », « De l'Âme », « La Poétique »...

"Aristotle's Poetics" is the earliest-surviving work of dramatic theory and the first extant philosophical treatise to focus on literary theory. In it, Aristotle offers an account of what he calls "poetry" (a term which in Greek literally means "making" and in this context includes drama-comedy, tragedy, and the satyr play-as well as lyric poetry, epic poetry, and the dithyramb). He examines its "first principles" and identifies its genres and basic elements; his analysis of tragedy constitutes the core of the discussion.

An in-depth analysis of Greek tragedy that details the transition from page to stage. In Aristotle¿s The Poetics, the philosopher discusses the art of poetry and its impact on the masses. He breaks down the most popular genres and their creative structure, giving insight into their purpose and ultimate appeal.
