Review: The new literal translation of choice of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. - Bartlett and Collins have penned what now must be considered the translation of choice into English of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. The best review I have so far read of it is "Code of the Gentleman" by Diana Schaub in The Claremont Review of Books with the response of the authors. There are so many felicities in their rethinking of how to translate Aristotle into English, and so many useful features such as footnotes (not tiresome endnotes), a glossary, interpretative essay, detailed indices etc., that the reader is brought closer to the text, and therefore to the meaning of the author, and not estranged from it by excessive pandering to the limitations of careless readers who do not like to have to think long and hard to get to the truth about things, especially naturally contentious human things like `morality'. This translation surpasses those by Sachs, Broadie and Rowe, Irwin, Ostwald, and Ross (the superior literary, but not literal translation) which are still useful to consult especially for their critical apparatus and alternative readings of key terms. Alas, certain significant words do not have footnotes or glossary entries, such as `inquiry/investigation' which they use to translate methodos - literally "the way after" or "the way towards" or "the way of proceeding" especially to the truth about the things human - philosophy. A detailed analytical outline would have been helpful. And, perhaps the size of the font could have been a bit larger in kindness to older eyes. This translation is also the superior twin to Carnes Lord's translation of "Aristotle The Politics" from the same stable, The University of Chicago Press. The other most useful pair of literal translations of Aristotle's "philosophy of things human" would be Joe Sachs, "Aristotle Nicomachean Ethics" and Peter L. Phillips Simpson's, "The Politics of Aristotle". The appendix to the Politics is the "Poetics" of which Seth Benardete's translation is the superior literal and scholarly translation, perhaps followed by Joe Sachs. The other work in Aristotle's quartet (or trilogy if one accepts the Poetics as a form of appendix to the Politics) is the "Rhetoric" which Bartlett has now also translated literally with a useful interpretive essay, glossary and notes.
Review: This English Edition of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics Is the One You Want! - I read this English edition of Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics as part of my journey through the Western canon. My rating and this review are not of Aristotle himself, but of this English edition. First, Bartlett and Collins write an excellent short introduction to Aristotle and not only place him in his historical and philosophical context but also discuss his continued influence even into the 21st Century. Their introduction addresses how a post-modern steeped in moral relativism can still benefit from the absolute moral values presented by Aristotle. In addition to their introduction, Bartlett and Collins write a helpful Note On Translation that provides insight into their literal translation approach. In my study of ancient languages (Hebrew, Koine Greek, and Latin), I have come to prefer this approach myself. Second, Bartlett and Collins provide the reader with a superb English translation. Clear. Crisp. Accessible. Third, I love the informative footnotes from Bartlett and Collins. The notes provide helpful historical, social, and literary context, they give insight into the underlying Greek terms Aristotle uses, and they provide visibility to manuscript variants. And, they're footnotes and not end notes! Fourth, I read through most of their interpretive essay (I read parts of it after I read each chapter in the Ethics), but honestly I didn't find it that helpful. I'd recommend skipping the interpretive essay except when it deals with chapters 6 and 7 of the Ethics. Overall, great English edition of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. 5-out-of-5 stars.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The new literal translation of choice of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics.
