| Resumo: | The main purpose of the present work is to do an approach about friendship being as a starting point of Aristotle thoughts expressed in the books II and VIII from Ethic to Nicomac, once they deal with virtues that mean happiness as a greater good. Aristotle's theories about ethics correspond to the predominance of Greek thoughts of the educated men of his time, related to property and family. In the “Nicomachean Ethics”, Aristotle establishes a systematization based on principles which should guide the regulation of human conduct for the good side. Even when this side has many others definitions as the own living, it is seen as happiness, being a pleasurable activity of the soul. In the definition of virtue, Aristotle distinguishes it in two kinds: an intellectual, resulting from education; and moral, resulting from habit. From this definition Aristotle comes up to the doctrine of fair half term that measured the virtues between two extremes: the excess and deficiency, both are regarded as vices. For Aristotle, moral corresponds to the conventionally accepted in his time, thus differentiating itself today. In relation to friendship, Aristotle chooses to understand that there is no just one single way to friendship, instead of this, it is constituted by distinct genres and various meanings that are different from themselves, although they are related in any way to the good; this principle by itself leads to friendship through virtue. Finally, it is known that Aristotle's notion about philia presents itself as having two dimensions that has its own intended purpose. One of them, is a component of ethical virtues which has as a goal the perfection of a practical life, meaning a life that provides us to live well. While, another one aims the perfection of theoretical life that constitutes true happiness. In this way, philia is considered as a good, not only for everyday life, but also for the contemplative life which becomes possible or easier by the existence of friends. |
