A new account of Aristotle's Ethics, this book argues for the
central importance of the concept of techne or craft in Aristotle's
moral theory. Exploring the importance of techne in the Platonic
and pre-Platonic intellectual context in which Aristotle was
writing, Tom Angier here shows that this concept has an important
role in Aristotle's Ethics that has rarely been studied in
Anglo-American scholarship. Through close-analysis of the primary
texts, this book uses the focus on techne to systematically
critique and renew Aristotelian moral philosophy. Techne in
Aristotle's Ethics provides a novel and challenging approach to one
of the Ancient World's most enduring intellectual legacies.
