Aristotle's Ethics and Medieval Philosophy
Author : Anthony Celano
Publisher : Cambridge University Press
Page : 275 pages

Release : 2016
Category : Literary Criticism
ISBN : 1107134854
Book Description
Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics had a profound influence on generations of later philosophers, not only in the ancient era but also in the medieval period and beyond. In this book, Anthony Celano explores how medieval authors recast Aristotle's Ethics according to their own moral ideals. He argues that the moral standard for the Ethics is a human one, which is based upon the ethical tradition and the best practices of a given society. In the Middle Ages, this human standard was replaced by one that is universally applicable, since its foundation is eternal immutable divine law. Celano resolves the conflicting accounts of happiness in Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, demonstrates the importance of the virtue of phronesis (practical wisdom), and shows how the medieval view of moral reasoning alters Aristotle's concept of moral wisdom.

Book Description
Vladimir Lossky’s posthumously published masterwork is now made available in English for the first time. Eckhart’s Negative Theology is the culmination of a long process, whereby the renowned Orthodox philosopher and theologian embraced the ways of thinking of a thirteenth-century German monk and mystic. While refusing to simplify Eckhart’s theology to a system or single motif, Lossky explores in detail the various ramifications of Eckhart’s insistence on the ineffability of God. Is God to be regarded as ‘being’, or the ‘One’, or ‘Intellect’? Does God’s pure expression of each of these preclude the others? Framed by six key statements about God’s essence, Lossky lays out Eckhart’s approach to this dilemma. His understanding of the problem, guided by careful engagement with a multitude of sources, is exhaustive. Scholars will welcome this eagerly-anticipated translation.
