On philosophy in Plato’s Republic
How should we understand ‘philosophy' in Plato’s Republic? Sarah Broadie develops a thoroughly practical notion of the philosopher's activity. Her interpretation helps with the old puzzle about the philosopher's qualification to rule. It also addresses a new problem, namely that Plato ought to have subdivided the rational part of the soul into two parts if the philosophers engage in both theoretical and practical thinking. By conceiving of wisdom…
Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics Book X
Accompanied by a new translation of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics X, this volume presents a hybrid between a traditional commentary and a scholarly monograph. Aristotle's text is divided into one hundred lemmata which not only explore comprehensively the content and strength of each of these units of thought, but also emphasise their continuity, showing how the smaller units feed into the larger structure. The Commentary illuminates what Aristot…
Republic 585b–d
The so-called ‘Olympian’ proof in Plato's Republic contains one of the first explicit distinctions between the nature of intellectual and bodily pleasures. The argument for the superiority of the former rests on a) identifying pleasure and pain with certain kinds of filling and emptying (583b1–585a7), and b) differentiating between bodily and intellectual pleasures according to the kind of filling: (i) Bodily depletions differ from depletions of …
Aristotle Against Delos
Two crucial questions, if unanswered, impede our understanding of Aristotle’s account of pleasure in en x .4-5: (1) What are the activities that pleasure is said to complete? (2) In virtue of what does pleasure always accompany these activities? The answers fall in place if we read Aristotle as responding to the Delian challenge that the finest, best and most pleasant are not united in one and the same thing ( en i .8). I propose an ‘ethical’ rea…
The Highest Good in Aristotle and Kant
The notion of the highest good used to occupy a primary role in ethical theorising, but has largely disappeared from the contemporary landscape. The notion was central to both Aristotle's and Kant's ethical theories, however-a surprising observation given that their approaches to ethics are commonly conceived as being diametrically opposed. The essays in this collection provide a comprehensive treatment of the highest good in Aristotle and Kant a…
Virtue and Happiness Essays in Honour of Julia Annas . Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy, Supplementary Volume, 2012
This festschrift for Julia Annas contains fifteen papers (six on Plato, one on Aristotle, four on the Stoics, and four on eudaimonism), all of which deal with aspects of virtue and happiness, the central topic of Annas's wide-ranging work. The editor, in her helpful introduction, summarizes the papers judiciously and explains how they relate to Annas's work. As is befitting for the occasion, many of the papers engage critically with Annas's often…
