He argues that happiness consists in \u2018activity of the soul in accordance with virtue\u2019, for example with moral virtues, such as courage, generosity and justice, and intellectual virtues, such as knowledge, wisdom and insight. <em>The Ethics<\/em> also discusses the nature of practical reasoning, the value and the objects of pleasure, the different forms of friendship, and the relationship between individual virtue, society and the State. Aristotle\u2019s work has had a profound and lasting influence on all subsequent Western thought about ethical matters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"474\" height=\"710\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fmidnight.com\/mediabox\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/nichomachian.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-250\" style=\"width:363px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fmidnight.com\/mediabox\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/nichomachian.jpg 474w, https:\/\/www.fmidnight.com\/mediabox\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/nichomachian-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title Nicomachian Ethics Author Aristotle Series NA Ranking \u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50 Genre Philosophy Links Goodreads \u2018One swallow does not make a summer; neither does one day.
