Talk:Aristotle

From Wikiquote

I noticed that there was a quote from Nicomachaen Ethics (Book II Chapter 9 Para 1) listed as "Attributed" rather than in the N.E. section. I put the Nicomachaen Ethics quote ("..any one can get angry...") in the N.E. section. Being new to Wikiquote, I wasn't sure I should pull the slightly different Attributed quote out. Given the injunction to "be bold", I went ahead and did it anyway. (JesseFreeman)

I did the same thing as well as adding another significant quote from the NE (kopasa)

Thank you for your editing. Folks, how do you think we make effort to put the source as same as other books according Berlin academy edition? --Aphaia 10:21, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Made some preliminary edits for overhauling this page: (1) added "Note on references" to mention the Bekker numbers; (2) added "Sources"; (3) split out 3 mislabeled quotations from the Poetics and gave them the proper Bekker numbers. As time permits, I hope to add more Bekker numbers, eliminate incorrect quotations, etc.

Suggested standard: When citing by Bekker number, give only the line for the beginning of the quotation: e.g., '1402b3', not '1402b3-6'. Giving a range of lines is pedantic and cluttered. Grommel 20:51, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] blanking

I removed some objectionable stuff that was written here. (anon)

Thank you. I recommend you not only to remove it, but revert such version, if possible. --Aphaia 10:21, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
