Tóm tắt: | By reference to the ethical treatises and the Politics, but also to other texts
of the Aristotelian corpus (most notably, the Metaphysics and the treatises of
the Organon), the present study undertakes to demonstrate the indissoluble
intertwinement of practical and theoretical wisdom (phron¯esis and
sophia as well as, concomitantly, praxis and the¯oria) in Aristotle’s thinking.
In this manner, I propose that sophia, theoretical wisdom, far from
an autonomous and separate pursuit, should be acknowledged as integrally
involved in becoming, sensibility, experience, and, hence, action.
Of course, this line of inquiry cannot but address critically the established
view of the separation, indeed the opposition of the two modes of reason.
Such a dichotomous logic is retained even by those who, like Arendt and
Gadamer, variously emphasize the practical over against the theoretical
and do so by merely inverting the order of the hierarchy. |
