a study of the relationship between the Eudemian and Nicomachean ethics of Aristotle
KORTE INHOUD
'In this remarkable book Dr. Kenny deploys a succession of arguments, historical, philological, and philosophical, in an investigation into the relationship between the Eudemian Ethics (EE) and the Nicomachean Ethics (NE) of Aristotle. His primary objective is to show that the so called disputed or common books, traditionally printed as books 5, 6, and 7 of NE and labeled by Kenny AE (Aristotelian Ethics), belonged originally to the Eudemian Ethics. (?) The questions of the relative priority and superiority of NE and EE and of the provenance of the disputed books have a long and venerable history; Kenny urges us to consider the last independently of the others, arguying that it both can and should be settled first.' (LESLEY BROWN in The Philosophical Review, 1980, p.320). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover.
