CONCEPTION OF ETHOS IN THE PHILOSOPHY OF PLATO AND ARISTOTLE

Анотація

The article discusses the Ethos as one of the most interesting applications of ancient Greek philosophy as a musical-ethical term. Ancient Greek philosophers constantly used music as a tool of ethics not only in philosophy, but also in all historical music, and this can be called a developmental phenomenon. Ethos is an event in the history of civilization, and in this context, the combination of music and ethics in human activity gives its essence. The understanding of ethics by Plato, like most Greek philosophers, is aimed at nobility, free citizens who are not slaves. And the concept of Aristotle's musical esthetics is based on a clear relationship between esthetics and ethics (worldview), theory and practice.
