Description

Explore one of the most significant answers to the question of what defines a virtue. Originally published in 1986, The Virtues of Aristotle provides a rigorous exposition of Aristotle's doctrine. This text serves as an essential resource for moral philosophers and philosophical psychologists looking to understand the foundations of character and ethical behavior. Because Aristotle's ideas are spread across various writings, this book provides a unique service by reconstructing his complex and comprehensive doctrine in one central location. It offers a clear look at how his theories connect to human action and identity. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between choice, character, and emotions. The text also examines the role of pleasure and pain in the development of virtue, alongside a careful consideration of the celebrated function (ergon). This Routledge Library Edition is a vital tool for anyone studying the roots of moral philosophy and human psychology.
