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 Aristotle thinks
in each lemma (and why), and also shows how he thinks. In order to
bring Aristotle alive as a thinker, it often explores several
possible ways of reading the text to enable the reader to make up
their own mind about the best interpretation of a given passage.
The relevant background in Plato's dialogues is discussed, and a
substantial Introduction sets out the philosophical framework
necessary for understanding Book X, the final and most arresting
section of the Ethics.
