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 book 4 of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics (and some parallel discussions in the Eudemian Ethics), where he discusses the Virtue of Good Humor or Wittiness, and its opposed vices of Buffoonery (or Vulgarity, or Jackassery) and Boorishness (or Being-A-Stick-In-The-Mud!)

new core concept video in the Aristotelian virtues and vices series
Your videos have been invaluable to me as an English teacher. I struggled through philosophy coursed in college, and yet I find myself teaching philosophy with Camus, Shakespeare, and so on. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome -- there's a lot of overlap between Philosophy and Literature, so it's not surprising that you're going to find yourself engaged with some Philosophy
great. Love these vids.
Thanks!
I'm an aspiring actor and you'll see me out there soon enough but these videos are instructional and beautiful
what happended?
An important subject to discuss, given that we have clearly become a vicious society with respect to the comic. The mean is gone from our culture. As a result, both extremes exist aplenty: we are surrounded by buffoons and boors. Between constant vulgarity and incessant political correctness that takes offense at every turn, how can our culture survive? For doesn't the lack of with in our culture indicate a far deeper set of problems concerning moral life, and the authentic pursuit of happiness?
No guarantee that virtue will be easy, that's for certain
So basically if you find humor offensive, you're boring. People need to listen to Aristotle. Stop being so offended.
Barack_ Mo Bamba pretty much the opposite of Aristotle’s position. Shit humor isn’t really funny and people ought to be offended by it
