亚里士多德的“快乐”思想——基于《尼各马可伦理学》的文本解读

Aristotle’s "Happy" Thought--Based on the Text Interpretation of The Nicomachean Ethics

在《尼各马可伦理学》一书中,亚里士多德阐发了丰富的“快乐”思想。针对当时人们对“快乐”问题的不同看法,他在批判前人快乐观的基础上建立起了自己的快乐观,辩证地分析了快乐与善、快乐与德性、快乐与幸福的关系,进而提出了快乐是某种意义上的善、快乐是德性品质的表征、快乐是幸福的题中应有之义等观点。厘清他的快乐思想,有助于我们从整体上把握亚里士多德的伦理学思想,对于建构当代人的快乐观具有借鉴和启示意义。

In the book The Nicomachean Ethics,Aristotle proposes a wealth of "happy" thoughts.In view of the different views of people on the "happiness" problem at that time,he built his own view of happiness on the basis of criticizing the predecessors’ view of happiness,dialectically analyzed the relationship between happiness and goodness,happiness and virtue,happiness and happiness.This puts forward the viewpoint that happiness is a kind of goodness,happiness is a symbol of virtue quality,and happiness is the meaning of happiness.Clarifying his happy thoughts helps us to grasp Aristotle’s ethical thoughts as a whole,and has reference and enlightening significance for constructing the contemporary view of happiness.
