This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics bk 8 (and 9) discussions of three main types of friendship -- friendship in terms of good character or virtue, which is friendship in the fullest sense -- friendship based on pleasure -- and friendship based on usefulness. We explore the differences between these kinds of friendship, why friendships of pleasure or usefulness are less durable, and whether a bad person can be a friend or not.
