Resum
[eng] According to Aristotle, εὐδαιμονία is the highest good of human life. It comes from a life-long exercise to fulfill one's potential. Aristotle's definition of εὐδαιμονία in the 'Nicomachean Ethics' provided a concrete understanding of a concept that, previously, lacked a concrete definition. To make up for this absence, this work sets out to find answers to what happiness first meant in the Archaic Period. The research consists of an analysis of the main
words relating to happiness which were used in the Archaic Period such as εὐδαίμων, μάκαρ, ὄλβιος and εὐτυχής. The analysis touches on different authors and genres by examining happiness according to Homer, Hesiod, Solon, Sappho, Pindar, Herodotus and Democritus. This work provides an examination of each author's usage of happiness-related keywords, as well as an analysis of their evolution to provide an understanding of what meanings these words had during this period.
