Summary "Ηθικά Νικομάχεια, Τόμος Πρώτος" by Aristotle is a philosophical treatise written in the 4th century BC. The work focuses on ethics and the nature of the good life, exploring concepts like happiness, virtue, and political science. It serves as an exploration of what constitutes a well-lived life and the pursuit of moral goodness. The opening of "Ηθικά Νικομάχεια, Τόμος Πρώτος" introduces the notion that every art and science aims toward some good. Aristotle begins by discussing the differences in outcomes produced by various actions, highlighting that some endeavors yield not only actions but also tangible results, which he categorizes. He emphasizes the importance of defining the ultimate good, which he suggests is central to political practice. As he lays the groundwork, Aristotle acknowledges that ethical inquiry may not yield absolute certainty due to the multiplicity of goods and their varying interpretations. The introductory chapter invites readers to consider the moral implications of their choices and the broader significance of happiness in guiding those choices.
