单词	telos
释义	telos /ˈtɛlɒs / noun (plural teloi /ˈtɛlɔɪ/) chiefly Philosophy or literary An ultimate object or aim: in the hedonistic life, people lose some moral purpose, a telos which provides the moral justification for the society... It's a teleological structure, but the successful continuation of the presence of the interactive focus defers and ultimately defeats the telos. The tragic hero, we are told, still treats the ethical as his telos or goal, even if this entails subordinating particular duties to its attainment. The eschatological motif leads likewise to a theology that takes its orientation from the perspective of our human telos together with the telos of creation as a whole. Origin Greek, literally 'end'.
