Aristotle's "Nichomachean Ethics": Friendship And Anger
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. To Aristotle, friendship, ethics and happiness are drawn from the same form, inasmuch as ethics represent the fundamental basis of one's existence; true friendship can only be derived from ethical behavior; and happiness is an intrinsic by-product of friendship. What is happiness if not a state of mind? In order to reach such a state of mind, one must engage in activity � either spiritual or social � that elicits this particular sentiment. Aristotle believed that ethics and thought were the fundamental basis for happiness, inasmuch as one cannot truly be happy if one is not cohesive with the world around him. Aristotle urged people to adhere to the fourteen axioms acts of his Nichomachean Ethics, which included gentility, honesty, pride, truthfulness, courage and self-restraint. This, asserted the philosopher, would aid in curtailing discord while broadening the trust that must exist between people in order to cultivate friendship. As such, one can readily associate the manner by which Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics illustrates how friendship serves as an important qualification in exercising the virtue of controlling one's anger.
