Sinossi

In "Nicomachean Ethics," Aristotle embarks on a profound exploration of moral philosophy, presenting a systematic framework for understanding the nature of the good life. Through a meticulous examination of virtue ethics, the text articulates the concept of eudaimonia (flourishing) as the ultimate aim of human existence. Aristotle employs a methodical approach, emphasizing the importance of character and the role of rationality in ethical decision-making. His literary style combines empirical observation with philosophical rigor, making it a seminal text in both ethics and moral psychology that has influenced countless philosophers throughout history. Aristotle, a towering figure of ancient Greek philosophy, was a student of Plato and tutor to Alexander the Great. His diverse experiences and keen observation of human behavior deeply informed his ethical theories. Writing in the context of a rapidly evolving Athenian democracy, Aristotle sought to provide a framework that addressed both individual moral conduct and the social dimensions of ethics, thus bridging personal integrity with communal responsibility. "Nicomachean Ethics" is essential reading for anyone interested in the foundations of Western philosophy. Its insights into virtue and practical wisdom remain relevant, inviting contemporary reflection on moral character and ethical living. This work not only challenges readers to pursue a meaningful life but also equips them with the intellectual tools necessary for navigating the complexities of human morality.

    This is a compilation of 4 different titles, which are about the following topics: 
    1: Charlie Chaplin was, at some point in history, the best paid actor in the world. He was famous for his comedy movies and his humor. He had an extensive career in acting, especially during World War 1, the Great Depression, and World War 2. What a fascinating time period in history to be a movie actor! 
    2: Marilyn Monroe has been part of the sexual revolution during the mid-20th century. Her influence in the movie industry, as an icon for attractiveness and femininity, have been noticed by hundreds of millions, even after her death. Did Marilyn Monroe have success? Yes. Was her life easy? Not by far. Her failed marriages, early childhood trauma, mood disorder, and some of the struggles with her sexuality, contracts, and Hollywood producers have made her life go up and down so much that I’m sure she would describe some moments as the ultimate bliss and others as a living hell. 
    3: Elvis Presley is the famous singer who caused so much controversy that he was hated and loved among most of the American people. His sexual moves, his novel way of putting songs together… there was just something about him that attracted the ladies and the media attention at the same time. Elvis didn’t grow up with wealth and fame. In a way, you could say he was living the American dream. However, he was kind of a bad boy as well, facing legal troubles, broken relationships and drug abuse. 
    4: James Dean was an icon for youth, differences in sexuality, and a successful Hollywood actor who made an impact on society and the American culture. His life was one of confusion and rebellion, but his attractiveness and suave attitude had a charm many could not resist. Some of his best movies got awards and were watched all over the country.

    The Olmec people are widely recognized as the first major civilization of Mexico and are thus generally regarded as the mother civilization of Mesoamerica, making them the people from which all subsequent Mesoamerican cultures derived. In fact, the term Olmec is thought to have originated with the Aztec people, as Olmec in their Nahuatl language means “the rubber people”, a reference to the inhabitants of the land from which they accessed rubber. By and large, the Olmec culture is perhaps best identifiable by their so-called colossal heads, mammoth basalt head-statues wearing helmet-like headdresses found throughout Olmec habitation sites. 
    	From the moment Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes first found and confronted them, the Aztecs have fascinated the world, and they continue to hold a unique place both culturally and in pop culture. Nearly 500 years after the Spanish conquered their mighty empire, the Aztecs are often remembered today for their major capital, Tenochtitlan, as well as being fierce conquerors of the Valley of Mexico who often engaged in human sacrifice rituals. Ironically, and unlike the Mayans, the Aztecs are not widely viewed or remembered with nuance, in part because their own leader burned extant Aztec writings and rewrote a mythologized history explaining his empire’s dominance less than a century before the Spanish arrived.  
    	While scholars continue to debate whether the Toltec were an actual historical group, there is an added layer of mystery to the fact that the settlement at Tula has a lot in common with the famous Mayan settlement at Chichén Itzá. The architecture and art at both sites are so similar that archaeologists and anthropologists have assumed they had the same cultural influences, even as historians struggle to determine the historical timelines, and thus whether Tula influenced Chichén Itzá or vice versa.
