Agire bene. La normatività della natura umana nella Virtue ethics
Allodi, Tommaso
2020
Abstract
Identifying good action from human nature is the basis of the founding project of neo-Aristotelian naturalism. A good agent is a good human being and, in this sense, human nature provides a normative criterion for the good action. This attempt to found rational normativity is at the heart of the debate between naturalists of first nature and naturalists of second nature who assign a different normative role to human nature (according to the twofold aristotelian notion of nature i.e.: first and second nature). In this book, we will try to follow a line of thought within neo-Aristotelian naturalism that has recently been trying to reconcile the perspectives of first and second nature naturalists. In this way, we will try to argue that there is a way in which human nature (first nature) is normative that is able to take into account the first-personal perspective that characterizes action (second nature).
