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, book 1, in particular on Aristotle's discussion of activities, arts, sciences, and the like as purposive activities.

Love your teaching style. You ground the idea in real-world, personalized examples. You're humorous but manage to not detract from a focus on the core idea that you're teaching, and you simplify things well without losing the ideas. Thank you so much, really loving this as a recap while self studying philosophy. You've made the subject in itself finally approachable to me, starting with plato and now aristotle.
Glad you enjoy the lectures!
That's great -- exactly the kind of student I love to have. Most of my students don't see things that way -- so I make efforts to reach them where I know them to be
You're welcome! Glad you liked it
Exactly. The moment I reject the "study to be someone" thing I started to be interested in learning. What a paradox!
I've just started my first close reading of the Nichomachean Ethics and it is astonishing just how packed even the first few entries of book 1 are. I keep having to re-read paragraphs because of how much substance there seems to be.
Your video has helped clear up some of the concepts, though, thanks!
Glad that the video has been helpful for you.
I've actually got an entire online set of courses that uses these videos, but adds lesson pages, handouts, quizzes, etc. If you're interested in checking that out, here's a link - reasonio.teachable.com/p/aristotle-s-nicomachean-ethics-books-1-10/
Excellent. I'll definitely give those a look! I start uni in September, so I'm trying to study and get ahead :)
Sounds good!
Amazing work Dr. Sadler! Thanks so much
You’re welcome!
I appreciate you posting these lectures for free. I'm an undergrad at a philosophy department ranked top 10 by PGR, yet my prof does a worse job at teaching.
Well, hate to break it to you. Many of us have considered the Philosophical Gourmet silly bullshit for decades now
Indeed -- we learn best when we don't make learning just an instrumental good.
Thank you for your video
You're welcome!
Thank you so much so so so much
You're welcome!

I'm here because I want to learn.
What I really want is to better myself.
