Ancient Greek and Roman Antiquity

See Perseus Database for Loeb edition (Greek & English) texts of Josephus

This essay cites the Loeb Library edition of the Nicomachean Ethics to show how the Rambam (albeit via Arabic trans) was not not inlfuenced by Aristotlte's theory of the mean as virtue (middot Tovot/ arete/ Tuegende). However Rambam departs from Aristotle in significant ways for instance with going to the extreme of being very humble as Moshe Rabbenu was not just anav, but anav moed (very humble) and the avot simulated anger when they had just cause (Abraham and Yitchak's wife were abducted by war lords) and remained calm, quietude and peaceful as a haltung and modality of being qua Being (metaphysics omega).
