Aristotle on Human Nature

Exploring Aristotle's concept of <i>logos</i> this volume advances our understanding of it as a singular feature of human nature by arguing that it<i></i>is the organizing principle of human life itself. <br/> <br/> Tracing its multiple meanings in different contexts including reason logic speech ratio account and form contributors highlight the ways in which we can see <i>logos</i> in human thinking in the organizing principles of our bodies in our perception of the world in our social and political life and through our productive and fine arts. Through this focus <i>logos</i> reveals itself not as one feature amongst others but instead as the feature that organizes all others from the most animal to the most spiritual. By presenting <i>logos</i> in this way readers gain a complex account of the philosophy of human nature.
