Aristotle#
Summary#
In Nietzsche’s critique of moral systems, Aristotle represents the doctrine of moderation - the “Aristotelianism of morals” that seeks to lower the emotions to an “innocent mean” where they may be satisfied. This approach is grouped among various strategies philosophers have devised to manage the danger of human passions, though Nietzsche views all such moral recipes as fundamentally expressions of timidity rather than wisdom.
