Exploring the importance of 'techne' in the Platonic and pre-Platonic intellectual context in which Aristotle was writing, Tom Angier here shows that this concept has an important role in Aristotle's Ethics that has rarely been studied in Anglo-American scholarship. Through close-analysis of the primary texts, this book uses the focus on 'techne' to systematically critique and renew Aristotelian moral philosophy. Techne in Aristotle's 'Ethics' provides a novel and challenging approach to one of the Ancient World's most enduring intellectual legacies. 410 0$aContinuum studies in ancient philosophy. 606 $aTechne (Philosophy) 606 $2Ethics & moral philosophy 606 $aEthics, Ancient 615 0$aTechne (Philosophy) 615 0$aEthics, Ancient. 676 $a171/.3 700 $aAngier$b Tom P.
