Natural law: medieval translators and commentators facing Nichomachean Ethics, V.7

Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

Abstract

Aristotle's discussion of what came to be considered Natural Law drew varied responses from medieval translators and commentators alike. In this monograph, Aristotle's Greek text is first discussed via a close reading, followed by a comparative analysis of the translations of the relevant section of the Nicomachean Ethics into Arabic, Latin and Hebrew, followed by a discussion of the varied approaches taken by the major commentarists working within philosophical traditions in Greek, Arabic, Latin and Hebrew.
