Pagan Virtue: An Essay in Ethics
Casey, John (University Lecturer in English, University of Cambridge, and Fellow, University Lecturer in English, University of Cambridge, and Fellow, Gonville and Caius College)
In his essay, the author argues that the classical virtues of courage, temperance, practical wisdom and justice centrally define the good for mankind, and that they are insufficiently acknowledged in modern moral philosophy. His sources include Aristotle, Shakespeare, Hume and Sartre.
