Aristotle’s Ethics 1. Preliminaries Aristotle wrote two ethical treatises: the Nicomachean Ethics and the Eudemian Ethics. He does not himself use either of these titles, although in the Politics (1295a36) he refers back to one of them—probably the Eudemian Ethics—as “ta êthika”—his writings about character. The words “Eudemian” and “Nicomachean” were added later, perhaps because the former was edited by his friend, Eudemus, and the latter by his son, Nicomachus. Though the general point of view expressed in each work is the same, there are many subtle differences in organization and content as well. A third treatise, called the Magna Moralia (the “Big Ethics”) is included in complete editions of Aristotle’s works, but its authorship is disputed by scholars. 2. The principal idea with which Aristotle begins is that there are differences of opinion about what is best for human beings, and that to profit from ethical inquiry we must resolve this disagreement. 3. 3.1 Traditional Virtues and the Skeptic 4. 5.
School Uniforms - Pros & Cons - ProCon.org 5 quick ways we can all double-check coronavirus information online This article is part of a series on health misinformation. The novel coronavirus has spread to over 60 countries alongside its darker cousin: false information about the disease, how it spreads and how we can protect ourselves against it. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has called it an “infodemic” as misleading or incorrect information is spreading faster than the virus. “Stigma, to be honest, is more dangerous than the virus itself,” said WHO director-general Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. When we come across content online that causes strong emotional reactions — like panic or fear — we can accidentally share things without stopping to think and check whether they’re accurate. Agents of disinformation take advantage of this and create content designed to make us panic-share stories, angry-post reactions, forward happy puppy stories, and everything in between. But we can fight the information disease together. Some stories are too good to be true Tips: Source: Reuters, 2020. Tools Tips

Tone refers to an author’s use of words and writing style to convey his or her attitude towards a topic. What the author feels about the subject is often defined as the tone.
