Explore "Nicomachean Ethics" by Aristóteles on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The term σοφία (wisdom [148]) is sometimes applied in the domain of the arts to those who are consummate masters of their art: e.g. it is applied to Phidias as a master of sculpture, and to Polyclitus for his skill in portrait-statues; and in this application it means nothing else than excellence of art or perfect development of the artistic faculty.
[148]: Of course we do not use "wisdom" in this sense. ↩︎
