1 School of Arts & Humanities Department of Philosophy 7AAN2027 Greek Philosophy II: Aristotle Syllabus Academic year 2015/16 Basic information Credits: 20 Module Tutor: Dr Joachim Aufderheide Office: Room 706, Philosophy Building Consultation time: Wed 12-1; Thur 1-2 Semester:2 Lecture time and venue: Mondays 11-1; K.311 (lecture) & Philosophy 605 (seminar) Module description (plus teaching arrangements, aims and objectives) This course is designed to introduce the students to Aristotle s wonderfully rich but intricate philosophical writings by focusing on some of the most prominent topics in Aristotle s philosophy. Students will learn how to read, how to criticise, and how to make sense of Aristotle and will thus be in a position to benefit from the wealth of Aristotle s thought. In the first four weeks we will study Aristotle s theoretical philosophy (spanning epistemology and psychology, as well as metaphysics). The last six weeks are devoted to key topics in Aristotle s practical philosophy (ethics and political philosophy). While the module will build on the Greek Philosophy I module for students who have taken it, it does not presuppose that module and can be taken without prerequisite. Assessment methods and deadlines Formative assessment: 2 essays, each of words length Summative assessment: One two-hour exam in period II (May/June 2015) Outline of lecture topics (plus readings) 1

4 Essay questions Section 1 a) Is Aristotle an empiricist? If so, in what sense? b) What is the point of the categories in Aristotle s eponymous work? c) How does perception work according to De Anima? Is this a credible account? d) What is the role of phantasia? Does Aristotle really need it? Section 2 a) Aristotle's ethical philosophy is often summed up as 'the philosophy of the golden mean'. Is this an apt characterisation? Explain and discuss. b) Explain Aristotle's conception of practical reasoning. Is the Grand End Theory plausible? c) What is the connection between activity and pleasure according to Aristotle? Answer by reference to EN VII or X or both. d) For Aristotle the best life centres on theoretical contemplation. Does this mean that a bad person can be happy, given that she puts enough effort into thinking? Discuss. e) Is the Nicomachean Ethics a continuous discourse with the Politics or can both be understood independently of each other? Which assumptions do they share, if any? Page 4

5 Suggested additional readings Weeks 1-4 In general, the Clarendon Oxford Series contains very good translations of and commentaries on the texts we will study. (Look out for J. Barnes on Posterior Analytics (2nd ed.), J. Ackrill on Categories, D.W. Hamlyn on De Anima, and D. Graham on Physics Book VIII.) J. Barnes, Cambridge Companion to Aristotle contains a very full (and commented) bibliography which should form an excellent starting point for further research on pretty much any topic in Aristotle. There are also two recent collections of papers that contain excellent overviews of complex topics: Anagnostopoulos, G. A Companion to Aristotle. Wiley-Blackwell, Shields, Christopher. The Oxford Handbook of Aristotle. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012 The translations in Ackrill's Aristotle Reader are good. Most of the texts we cover are in Fine and Irwin Aristotle: Introductory Readings which is an abridged version or their Aristotle: Selections. Weeks 5-10 D. Bostock, Aristotle's Ethics contains a useful guide to further reading, appended to each chapter. Further, S. Broadie and C. Rowe's translation and commentary on the EN contains a helpful select bibliography which is divided into different topics. This book is worth having because it contains not only the best translation of the EN available, but also because of the fine introductory essays. T. Irwin's translation may perhaps be more accessible (as Irwin inserts headings and sections into the text), but it is perhaps not quite as faithful to Aristotle's Greek. Irwin's book contains a very useful glossary. A helpful companion with many good papers and a very extensive bibliography is Polansky, Ronald M. The Cambridge Companion to Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. Cambridge: Cambridge Univ. Press, Page 5
