Aristotle On The Idea Of Pleasure

Aristotle’s idea of pleasure is interwoven in many texts,with different forms,such as axiology,essentialism,and functionalism.The nature of happiness and the life guided by happiness have always been the two ends of Aristotle’s idea of happiness.The meaning of the word happiness in Aristotle’s philosophy view and its historical evolution and its historical origin is based on different periods of the text,"rhetoric" is the essence of happiness theory of mature period form,"encouraging" and "ou DE Hume ethics" is an early theory of happy thoughts,",the ethics of mark " expressed the essence and function of mature period of happy thoughts,but in ",the ethics of mark " is defined as confrontational.Chapter 1: "introduction".This paper mainly explains the reason and significance of the topic,the research status,and the innovation points of the paperChapter 2: the study of the early Aristotelian concept of pleasure--from exhortation to eudemus ethics.In Aristotle’s relatively early writings,pleasure is not fully valued,happiness is a secondary good.In the exhortation,a happy life begins with wisdom,which is the prerequisite for pleasure.In the ethics of eudemus,Aristotle established the stratification theory of pleasure,but the essence of the stratification theory is the modification of happiness by the highest value.Chapter 3: a study of late texts--the concept of pleasure in the nicomachean ethics.What the nicomachean ethics tries to do is reconstruct pleasure.The reconstruction work is divided into two aspects: the establishment of the natural basis of happiness,the establishment of the species of pleasure,the establishment of the essential elements of happiness(normal quality)and the means of realization(realization activity)in the nicomachean ethics(volume 7),and the establishment of the function and effect of happiness in volume 10,so that the concept of happiness is comprehensively established.In addition,this chapter discusses the limitations and shortcomings of the concept of happiness proposed in the nicomachean ethics.Chapter 4 "The form and definition of pleasure--a case study of rhetoric".The definition of happiness in the nicomachean ethics is still biased.This excessive force comes from Aristotle’s confrontation with the academism,which makes him define happiness with the positive utility of happiness in book x,but this definition will be refuted on the empirical level.In the rhetoric,Aristotle tries to a "common knowledge"(non-professional,the elite of knowledge),to establish an inclusive happiness deeply touched the inclusive concept type maximum learned "souls",for the understanding of the nature and soul,and the revised ",the ethics of mark " of the definition of happiness in a strong position.Chapter 5 "pleasure and life".This chapter attempts to expound that in the actual environment(the conflict environment containing all the good)all the good is practical and instrumental.The three kinds of life are intersecting rather than extending the three kinds of happiness,which on the one hand constitute the dynamics of how this separation occurs(the desire to be pleasure),and on the other hand constitute the internal protectionism(the reason for pleasure)in which the separation is no longer united.
