Sinopsis

Virtue is an examination of 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 Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
