The Fabric of Character : Aristotle's Theory of Virtue Paperback / softback
by Nancy (Associate Professor of Philosophy, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Georgetown Uni Sherman
Part of the Clarendon Paperbacks series
Paperback / softback
Description
There is a resurgence of interest in Aristotle's ethical theory, and this book contributes to the debate by asserting that, in Aristotle's view, excellence of character is constituted both by the sentiments and by practical reason.
Throughout the arguments of the book, Nancy Sherman is sensitive to contemporary moral debates, and indicates the extent to which Aristotle's account of practical reason provides an alternative to theories of impartial reason.
