Aristotle on Personal Enmity

Javier Echeñique Sosa, Jose Antonio Errázuriz Besa

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In this paper we develop Aristotle’s remarks about personal enmity (ἔχθρα) into a systematic account, with a view to determining whether personal enmity has a role to play in the good life. We argue that such an account can be obtained by examining Aristotle’s claims about hatred, and that this examination reveals that there is a significant place for enmity in Aristotle’s conception of the good life.
