La nozione di human flourishing nella riflessione etica ed epistemologica contemporanea

[Machine translation] The expression human flourishing represents perhaps the most successful attempt to translate the overall meaning of the Aristotelian notion of eudaimonia. This expression, intrinsically linked to the human dimension, underlines the importance of living according to reason, not being limited to a condition of subjective satisfaction but highlighting the relevance of the objective capacity to live well. This contribution analyzes the challenges and perspectives of the contemporary debate on flourishing, exploring, moral and epistemological issues in both an individual and collective context. After a historical overview of the concept and its evolution, the question of moral character will be explored, and its impact on flourishing, as well as the relationship between individual flourishing and collective moral progress, paying attention to relevant psychological and social changes. Finally, two fundamental areas for flowering will be discussed: well-being and the connection with creativity and artistic experience.
