What is Endoxa?
'''Endoxa''' was a concept [[Aristotle]] talked about. It refers to the [[opinion]] not of individuals (which he contrasts by naming that 'doxa') but the [[consensus]] of the population and wise people with a supposed more valid opinion than that of the individual. Aristotle employs a detailed and distinctive approach to clarify the relationship between incontinence, continence, and related conditions in relation to virtue and vice. He examines the prevailing beliefs about these states to discern what is right and wrong.<ref>{{Citation|last=Karbowski|first=Joseph|title=Endoxa, facts, and the starting points of the Nicomachean Ethics|date=2015|url=https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/bridging-the-gap-between-aristotles-science-and-ethics/endoxa-facts-and-the-starting-points-of-the-nicomachean-ethics/2AD103C0F6175C4B674542618E1BCBA0|work=Bridging the Gap between Aristotle's Science and Ethics|pages=113–129|editor-last=Henry|editor-first=Devin|place=Cambridge|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-0-511-84639-7|access-date=2024-10-08|editor2-last=Nielsen|editor2-first=Karen Margrethe}}</ref> == Related pages == *[[Common sense]] ==References== {{reflist}} {{stub}} [[Category:Philosophy]]
