Summary/Abstract: This is a new translation of Book Epsilon, or Book V of the “Nicomachean Ethics“ of Aristotle in Bulgarian, in which more precisely is rendered the difference between the cardinal concepts the justice and the just. In the commentary to this new translation of Book Epsilon, or Five, the translator Dimka Gocheva expresses her appreciation of the already existing Bulgarian translation, published 20 years ago, and at the same time explains the cultural and philosophical motives, which engender new and new translations of the great books of the Greek classical thought in other powerful European philosophical traditions as the British and the Russian. The variety of translations of the fundamental Greek philosophical texts, or parts of them, is a must for the enrichment of any philosophical tradition.
