Course Description
This course considers two approaches to the central questions of ethics: the nature and characteristics of actions, and states of character or virtue. Students consider a variety of ethical questions through close readings of writers in the Kantian and Aristotelian traditions, as representative of these two approaches. Central to the discussion is the viability of the distinctions between act and agent, principle and virtue.
