Description
Ancient Greek philosophers were fundamentally concerned with weighty esoteric arguments such as the nature of humanity, the good life, and the concept of good versus evil. Virtue hopes to contribute to these arguments by examining the relationship that ethics bears to other philosophical considerations in metaphysics, epistemology, and aesthetics. Virtue examines central topics in ancient Greek explorations of "virtue," particularly the elusive notion of "Sophrosune," alternatively translated as "moderation" or "temperance." The book investigates central works of Plato and Aristotle to develop an understanding of the role this virtue plays in the broader ethical commitments of three of history's greatest philosophers-Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
