In this lecture I introduce Aristotle’s definition of eudaimonia, usually translated as happiness or the good life, and also his distinction between action and production. How we can reach eudaimonia in ethical life is the focus of this lecture and also of my upcoming course on Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics, which you may enrol in now.

Here is the link to my new Aristotle course. Live seminars start October 12th. You find all details on seminar dates and enrolment options on the course page. The main video and audio lectures have already been uploaded so you can start straight away.
