๐Ÿ’ก (English) Speaking of โ€˜Happinessโ€™ in the Language of Philosophy

After Reading โ€œNicomachean Ethicsโ€

Image

๐Ÿ“– Book Title: โ€œNicomachean Ethicsโ€
โœ๏ธ Author: Aristotle ๐ŸŽฏ Recommended For: Those who need a sleeping pill book to read before bed ๐ŸŒŸ One-line Review: Difficult, difficult, and difficult..


๐Ÿ˜… Itโ€™s difficult,..,

I still canโ€™t forget the bewilderment when I first opened the book,,, Since each character was in Korean, I should have understood it, but it was so hard to grasp the meaning. I read it over and over again thinking โ€˜Am I not focusing enough?โ€™, but in the end, it was just difficult to understand.,.

Hereโ€™s an excerpt from the book:

Also, practical wisdom is bound to excellence of character, and excellence of character is likewise bound to practical wisdom. This is because the principles of practical wisdom are given according to character excellence, and the rightness of character excellence is given according to practical wisdom.

Looking at sentences like these made me realize that โ€˜philosophy books are indeed not easy.โ€™


๐Ÿ“ So whatโ€™s the theme!?

First, letโ€™s think about the title โ€œNicomachean Ethicsโ€ again! I realized I didnโ€™t understand it well haha

About Nicomachus!! There are two theories.

  1. It means ethics lectures that Aristotle left for his son Nicomachus
  2. Since โ€œNicomachean Ethicsโ€ appears to have been organized after Aristotleโ€™s death, itโ€™s interpreted as โ€œEthics organized by Nicomachusโ€ as his son or disciple Nicomachus acted as editor

So this bookโ€™s main theme was wisdom for a happy life!!

What I remember most was the concept of โ€˜moderationโ€™ which means โ€˜stay in the middle.โ€™

All goodness lies in the appropriate middle point between excess and deficiency, which doesnโ€™t mean a simple arithmetic mean, but rather the โ€˜optimal stateโ€™ according to situation and context.

โš–๏ธ The Virtue of the Mean, The Importance of Moderation!

  • Courage is a โ€˜controlled stateโ€™ between recklessness and cowardice
  • Generosity is โ€˜balanced givingโ€™ between wastefulness and stinginess
  • In both emotions and actions, appropriateness considering situation and reason is important

The mean is not about choosing just any โ€˜middle ground,โ€™ But about choosing the โ€˜right timing, method, and intensityโ€™ suitable for the situation

In modern terms, I understood it as doing things moderately without crossing the line!


โœ… Final Thoughts

Hereโ€™s my honest reflection after reading this book:

  • A Challenging Reading Experience ๐Ÿ“š
    • Started reading during commute but it wasnโ€™t easy
    • Required deep concentration on every page
  • The Importance of Perseverance ๐Ÿ’ช
    • Finished thanks to the principle โ€œfinish what you startโ€
    • Proud of not giving up despite the difficulty Disappointing that I donโ€™t remember much even after finishing it
  • The Uniqueness of Philosophy Books ๐Ÿค”
    • Not only was the text difficult, but the commentary was no easier
    • An opportunity to experience the depth of philosophical thinking

Although it wasnโ€™t an easy read, I believe such challenging reading will somehow deepen our thinking, even if unconsciously!!!
