Aristotle's Eudemian Ethics was until recently treated as a poor
cousin of the better-known Nicomachean Ethics - poor enough even to
have to borrow its three central books (IV-VI) from the latter. The
work has now emerged from its relative obscurity; many scholars,
indeed, now claim - on the basis of what appear to be sound
statistical arguments - that it is the Nicomachean Ethics that has to
borrow its Books V-VII from the Eudemian. Studies on the Text of
Aristotle's Eudemian Ethics is a companion volume to the critical
edition of Aristotle's Ethica Evdemia in the Oxford Classical Text
series, edited by Christopher Rowe. The companion text explains the
principles of the critical edition, justifying individual readings in
detail, and providing information about the Greek manuscripts. An
appendix brings together full datasets for the four primary
manuscripts that reveal not only the relationships between them, but
also the idiosyncrasies of the three copyists involved, and the
typical errors that tend to be found in the different manuscripts.
