评《尼各马科伦理学》的三个道德劝喻

A Review on three Moral Metaphors in Nicomachean Ethics

本文由两部分组成。第一部分从消极角度分析了《尼各马科伦理学》的三条道德劝喻(“两恶之间取其小”、“曲木裁直”、“拒斥快乐”),认为亚里士多德的三条道德劝喻不仅彼此互相冲突,而且与亚氏伦理学的中心原则(只有心理上和行为上有德性的表现,才是德性的,才是一个有德性的人)是相互矛盾的。第二部分则着重从积极角度来看待这些冲突,认为恰好是这些冲突暴露了伦理学所要积极面对的问题。

the paper is consisted of two parts in the first part, the author argue the opinion that the three moral advices in the Nicomachean Ethics - performing the less vice rather than the more vice; straightening sticks that are bent; dismissing pleasure- are not only conflict each other, but also against the basic principle in the Nicomachean Ethics, which say, only one man in psychology and behavior are virtuous can be said a virtuous man in the second part, the author point out that the constructions in the Nicomachean Ethics just revral the problems that Ethics itself must actively faces.
