Excerpt from The Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle Many more or less important alterations have been made in this translation, which was first published in 1881, as new editions have from time to time been called for. The present edition in particular has been revised throughout, and brought into accordance with Bywater's text (Oxford, 1890), which is coming to recognized, not in Oxford only, as the received text of the Nicomachean Ethics. I wish gratefully to knowledge the debt which, in common with all lovers of Aristotle, I owe to Mr. Bywater, both for his edition and for his "Contributions to the Textual Criticism of the Nicomachean Ethics" (Oxford, 1892).
