Carlo Natali (ed.): Aristotle: Nicomachean Ethics, Book VII. Symposium Aristotelicum. Oxford: Oxford University Press 2009, viii + 296 pp. 1. Introduction In July 2005 the Symposium Aristotelicum met on a secluded island in the Venetian lagoon to discuss Book VII of the Nicomachean Ethics (NE). Ten papers were presented that together comprised a discursive and sequential commentary upon its fourteen chapters. (Authors other than those whom I shall mention by name below are Sarah Broadie and Teun Tieleman.) Carlo Natali recalls âlively and intense discussionâ among the thirty or so participants through âtorrid weatherâ that defeated even the air conditioning of an officersâ mess. Less privileged Aristotelians may exclaim âO that we were there!â; but perusing the resulting collection in oneâs own time (and not in a heat wave) will be found a richly compensatory experience. The contributors largely keep to their assignments, though there are inevitably crossreferences (and John Cooper enlivens his exemplary treatment of VII.1â2 by devoting a barbed footnote, 23, n. 33, to a crux in VII.3). Readers of the Greek text of the NE will know that there are two different numberings of chapters within books, one most familiar from Bekker, the other from
