Translated, with Introduction and Notes, by C. D. C. Reeve

Series: The New Hackett Aristotle

This new translation of Aristotle's Eudemian Ethics, noteworthy for its consistency and accuracy, is the latest addition to the New Hackett Aristotle series. Fitting seamlessly with the others in the series, it enables Anglophone readers to read Aristotle’s works in a way previously impossible. Sequentially numbered endnotes provide the information most needed at each juncture, while a detailed Index of Terms guides the reader to places where focused discussion of key notions occurs.

"David Reeve’s translation of Aristotle’s Eudemian Ethics is certain to become an indispensable tool for anyone who is interested in studying this great text, that paired with the Nicomachean Ethics, exposes Aristotle’s ethical theory. The translation is not only faithful to the Greek text but it also reproduces masterfully the rhythm of Aristotle’s prose. Together with its thoughtful Introduction, copious notes, and temperance when coping with textual problems, Reeve’s edition is a remarkable contribution to Aristotelian studies." —Pavlos Kontos, University of Patras, Greece
