Reply to comment by Sonnenroete in "Like painters bring brush to canvas and sculptors set chisel against marble, so do the magnificent use their wealth to bring about beauty and inspire wonder in their people's eyes. Thus Aristotle calls them artists" - On Generosity and Magnificence, Nicomachean Ethics by SnowballtheSage

I mean, I don‘t disagree, I‘ve always despised Aristotelian ethics. 😂

Part of why I chose Aristotle's Ethics is because it is traditionally a good text to build up the skills to write philosophical commentaries. I am already doing the initial research to start writing a commentary on Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil so stay tuned.
