Group Work on Friendship and Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics, Books 8-9. [If you were not present for this group work, you can submit your own individual responses.]


 Break up into small groups. Delegate one or more members of your group to
(1) make a list of your group's members, and include that list when you
(2) post your group's responses to the following two questions here. 

Group work – Does Aristotle’s account of friendship explain the friendships you are familiar with? If so, how? Please give an example. If not, describe a friendship the theory does not explain, and explain why it fails to explain that friendship.
