Note: I will be using Turnitin for this assignment. Once you turn in your paper, you cannot un-submit it. I cannot un-submit it either. It stays there forever. PLEASE DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! TURNITIN CATCHES EVERYTHING!! T You have read Books 1 and 2 of Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics. Please analyze Aristotle’s main points of his argument for his ethical theory of The Mean/The Middle in relationship to acquiring happiness and living a virtuous life. You will need to decide whether you agree or not with his theory. You will also need to determine whether or not his theory would actually produce sustainable lifetime happiness/contentment. Therefore you will need to consider whether or not Aristotle’s argument that living in the mean will produce sustainable happiness: DECIDE IF HIS ARGUMENT IS VALID! Your paper will need to either defend (agree) or refute (disagree) with Aristotle’s theory of the Mean/Middle, your thesis statement should state this at the end of your introductory paragraph. (This means that you will need to state in the introductory paragraph of your essay whether or not you agree or disagree with Aristotle’s theory of the Mean. Your agreement or disagreement will be your thesis statement.) Your paper will need to summarize the main points in the text and discuss and analyze them in relation to Aristotle’s theory regarding ethics and happiness. Your paper will need to use a real-life example to support your thesis. The conclusion in your paper will need to reemphasize the thesis of your paper and also present a final thoughtful reflective analysis of your thesis/argument. Please do not use any outside sources for this assignment!!! Please focus on Aristotle’s text.

To prepare for this paper you should consider the following items: Decide if you think Aristotle’s idea that living in the mean will actually lead to a virtuous life and whether or not this would make a person really sustainably happy. Can this theory be applied empirically in today’s world? Why or Why not? Does Aristotle support his argument? Do all of the points he makes in the text really add up to the conclusion that living in the mean (a life in moderation) will bring sustainable contentment in life? Would his ideas actually work in real life today? As you look at the world in which you live do you personally see whether or not people’s actions lead to good or bad results; does living in the mean lead to a balanced life; do people really work or aim toward a best good of happiness; can we really lead a virtuous life?
