“This is the only English translation of the Ethics for those who want or need to know precisely, not just roughly, what Aristotle says. Readers now can behold the splendor of his conception of moral virtue and engage with its subtleties as well. The translation is accompanied by excellent notes, an interpretive essay, indices, and a highly useful glossary.”—Harvey C. Mansfield, Harvard University
(Harvey C. Mansfield, Harvard University )
“There are several good editions of the Nicomachean Ethics currently available, but the Bartlett and Collins version is superior in several decisive respects—philological, philosophical, and pedagogical. The translation itself is consistently faithful to the text without lapsing into obscurity or awkwardness, with lots of helpful discussion (in just the right number of notes conveniently placed at the bottom of the page) of alternative possibilities at key points. Best of all, the thoughtful and well-crafted surrounding material—notes, glossary, introduction, and interpretive essay—supplies a marvelous guide to Aristotle’s unique way of presenting the central questions of ethics and politics. This is the version I will use when next I teach the Nicomachean Ethics.”—Stephen G. Salkever, Bryn Mawr College
(Stephen G. Salkever, Bryn Mawr College )
“This translation will easily be the best available English version of the Nicomachean Ethics.”—Michael Davis, Sarah Lawrence College
(Michael Davis, Sarah Lawrence College )
“Bartlett and Collins’s translation of the Nicomachean Ethics is the best in English that I have read. It nicely couples a consistent faithfulness to Aristotle’s Greek with a high degree of readability. This will be a real service to scholars and students.”—Gerald M. Mara, Georgetown University
(Gerald M. Mara, Georgetown University )
The Nicomachean Ethics, along with its sequel the Politics, is Aristotle’s most widely read and influential work. Ideas central to ethics—that happiness is the end of human endeavor, that moral virtue is formed through action and habituation, and that good action requires prudence—found their most powerful proponent in the person medieval scholars simply called “the Philosopher.” Drawing on their intimate knowledge of Aristotle’s thought, Robert C. Bartlett and Susan D. Collins have produced here an English-language translation of the Ethics that is as remarkably faithful to the original as it is graceful in its rendering.
Aristotle is well known for the precision with which he chooses his words, and in this elegant translation his work has found its ideal match. Bartlett and Collins provide copious notes and a glossary providing context and further explanation for students, as well as an introduction and a substantial interpretive essay that sketch central arguments of the work and the seminal place of Aristotle’s Ethics in his political philosophy as a whole.
The Nicomachean Ethics has engaged the serious interest of readers across centuries and civilizations—of peoples ancient, medieval, and modern; pagan, Christian, Muslim, and Jewish—and this new edition will take its place as the standard English language translation.

评分把王阳明的良知和亚里士多德的实践智慧联系起来进行比较并不是偶然和随意的,因为我们可以发现二者有着很多类似之处。 首先,致良知和实践智慧都是揭示“真理”的根本方式。 王阳明认为,真知即所以为行,不行不足谓之知。他提出的致良知就是达到真理(也即良知)的根本方式...
评分有养分,但读起来太辛苦
评分兼具准确性和可读性,较之绝大多数译本强得太多。美中不足的是整个译本没有区分τὸ πρακτόν和ἡ πράξις,而是把两者都译为action,比较有误导性。
评分~~~~~~~~~~~~ 读到我不认识英文了!
