The Ethics of Walter Burley
Résumé
If one wishes to understand Walter Burley's moral philosophy, the main text to consider is his commentary on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. Were his commentary on the Sentences not lost, the matter of the present inquiry would be vastly increased. I will examine what Burley has to say about the topics that have been recognized by the exegetical tradition as the most significant in the Ethics; however, it will be impossible to study every single aspect of Burley's Ethics commentary.
