O t’agathon, czyli o dobru. Na podstawie Etyki nikomachejskiej I 1 1094a 1–3 w interpretacji Sebastiana Petrycego z Pilzna

Abstract

Aristotle opens the first chapter of the first book of the Nicomachean Ethics as follows: “Every art and every inquire, and similarly every action as well as undertaking, seem to aim at some good. Hence people have right defined that the good is that at which all things aim”. The article indicates and elucidates the difficulties found in the quoted statement on the basis of translation and commentary by Sebastian Petrycy of Pilzno.
