Abstract

In the ethical theories of the ancient Greeks, eudaimonia provided a grounding for the value of all other goods. But a puzzle for such views is that some things are good for us irrespective of the intervention of eudaimonia and its requirement of virtuous activity. In this article, the author considers challenges to the eudaimonist account of value on those grounds pressed by Nicholas Wolterstorff and Sophie Grace Chappell. The aim is ethical-theoretical, rather than historical. The author defends the thesis that a form of eudaimonism that is largely Aristotelian in form and content can meet these challenges.

快乐从根本上说是好的
在古希腊人的伦理理论中,快乐为所有其他物品的价值提供了基础。但让这些观点困惑的是,有些事情对我们是有益的,而不考虑幸福感的干预及其对美德行为的要求。在这篇文章中,作者在Nicholas Wolterstorff和Sophie Grace Chappell提出的基础上,考虑了对幸福主义价值解释的挑战。其目的是伦理理论,而不是历史。作者认为,在形式和内容上基本上都是亚里士多德式的唯美主义可以应对这些挑战。
