I know that there have been several posts on where to start reading Aristotle, but I think this one would be a little different approach than usual so I think I should ask.
My aim to study Aristotle and other philosophers is to gain an understanding on living a better life. This would mean that I would like to study the texts focused on topics like ethics etc. So I wish to spend less time on reading about, say, metaphysics, unless it is necessary to understand the philosopher and also since I know that there are better models of reality now (in physics etc).
How I plan to study Aristotle is that I will first properly read the articles on https://plato.stanford.edu/ . This includes (in order) :
I think that these articles might give me the necessary understanding of Aristotle's works and so I can directly study his Nicomachean Ethics, Poetry and Rhetoric without getting too deep in the rabbit hole, since Aristotle can be obscure to beginner readers.
Please provide any additional feedback or references to help me in my efforts to study Aristotle.
