Abstrakt
The article offers an interpretation of the so-called ergon argument in Aristotle’s nicomachean ethics I.7. I argue that the argument offers a good ground for interpreting human happiness as theória and that the argumentation is coherent with the rest of the nicomachean ethics as well.
The article provides answers to three widespread critiques of the ergon argument. I claim that the ergon argument covers both the moral and intellectual virtues, further I offer a possible interpretation of the difference between theória of human beings and theória belonging to gods.
Finally, I try to explain in what sense a good of human being is good for a human being at the same time.
