Abstract

Aristotelian criticism of the so called “Socratic intellectualism” in Nicomaquean Ethics VII is well known. However, on many occasions Aristotle gives part of reason to the Socratic position. The aim of this work is twofold: (i) to review a specific aspecto of the way in which Aristotle may have understood Socratic intellectualism specially regarding someone who is actually knowing that what he or she is aboutto do is wrong; (ii) to review why, in that specific aspect, Aristotle’s own position is not, as is often said, so distant from the Socratic.
