Abstract

Aristoteles demonstrates that ‘living well’ and ‘doing well’ are two aspects of the single concept of eudaimonia, which is performed above all in the public sphere. The search for a good common life is evident immediately after the Athenians’ defeat in Sicily, when they were able to transform a difficult moment into a new opportunity: we can consider this episode to be at the root of our concept of ‘resilience’.
