“How to flourish” was one such topic, “flourishing” being a workable rendering of Aristotle’s term eudaimonia. We might also translate the term in the usual way, as “happiness,” as long as we suspend some of that word’s modern associations; eudaimonia wasn’t something that waxed and waned with our moods.
For Aristotle, ethics was centrally concerned with how to live a good life: a flourishing existence was also a virtuous one.
