L’unité des vertus chez Aristote: existe-t-elle et dans quel sens?

Aristotle proposes a unification of the virtues that is articulated differently from that of Plato. According to Aristotle, there are first two principal kinds of human virtue: intellectual virtue and moral virtue, and these stand in a teleological relation, since the latter is oriented toward the former as its end. Furthermore, within the intellectual virtues themselves, there is also a teleological ordering among their parts, insofar as phronēsis is directed toward sophia. By contrast, within the moral virtues there exists only a functional unity: in each domain of action and passion, phronēsis is capable of identifying the mean, and thereby of determining the prakton, that is, the action to be performed.
