Aristotle's Ethica Evdemia: The Text and Character of the Common Books as Found in Eth. Evd. MSS
Aristotle's Ethica Eudemia ( Eth. Eud. ) and Ethica Nicomachea ( Eth. Nic. ), as is well known and much discussed, contain three books in common ( Eth. Eud. 4–6 = Eth. Nic. 5–7). Less well known, at least until Dieter Harlfinger alerted scholars to the fact in 1971, is that some of the manuscripts of Eth. Eud. do, contrary to the then prevailing consensus, contain the text of these common books. Even less well known is that Harlfinger's discovery…
The Eudemian Ethics of Aristotle
"Among the works on ethics in the Aristotelian corpus, there is no serious dispute among scholars that the Eudemian Ethics is authentic. The Eudemian Ethics is increasingly read and used by scholars as a useful support and confirmation and sometimes contrast to the Nicomachean Ethics. Yet, it remains a largely neglected work in the study of Aristotle's ethics, both among scholars and moral philosophers. Peter L.P. Simpson provides an analytical o…

Aristotle's Ethica Eudemia 1220b10–11 Ἐν Τοῖς Ἀπηλλαγμένοις and De Virtutibus Et Vitiis
Aristotle's Ethica Eudemia ( EE ) Book 2 Chapter 2 contains, at lines 1220b10–11, a well-known crux in the phrase ἐν τοῖς ἀπηλλαγμένοις. The context makes clear that Aristotle is using this phrase to refer to some writing or other, but scholars have been puzzled both about what the phrase means and what writing it refers to
On Emending and Not Emending the Text of Some Passages in Aristotle's Ethica Eudemia
The text of Aristotle's Ethica Eudemia ( EE ) is often in need of emendation, especially because of the particular fault in the manuscripts of misreading one letter for another or misdividing letters to form words. Scholars have already done fine work in correcting many of these errors (especially at the beginning of 8.1), but more needs to be done. A second problem with the text does not have to do with matters of spelling or grammar (or even of…

Transcending Justice: Pope John Paul II and Just War
Pope John Paul II's opposition to the Iraq War was not that it failed to meet the conditions of Just War Theory. Indeed, we cannot tell from what he publicly said whether he thought it met those conditions or not, for he would have opposed it in any case. His thinking was rather that even just and necessary wars always come, as it were, too late, and are never able to solve the problems that made wars just and necessary. He was not trying therefo…
