Aristotle's Discovery of the Human: Piety and Politics in the "Nicomachean Ethics" - Book by Mary P. Nichols

Aristotle’s Discovery of the Human: Piety and Politics by Mary P. Nichols examines Aristotle’s philosophical contributions to understanding human nature, particularly how piety and politics intersect in his thought. Nichols argues that Aristotle, through his ethics and political theory, discovered a framework for understanding human beings as rational, social creatures capable of moral reasoning. The book discusses how Aristotle's views on virtue, the role of reason, and the human connection to divine order influenced his perspectives on politics and governance, offering insights into the ethical foundations of the polis and its moral obligations to citizens.
