Virtue, Narrative, and Self connects two philosophical areas of
study that have long been treated as distinct: virtue theory and
narrative accounts of personal identity. Chapters address several
important issues and neglected themes at the intersection of these
research areas. Specific examples include the role of narrative in
the identification, differentiation, and cultivation of virtue, the
nature of practical reasoning and moral competence, and the
influence of life's narrative structure on our conceptions of what
it means to live and act well. This volume demonstrates how recent
work from the philosophy of mind and action concerning narrativity
and our understanding of the self can shed new light on questions
about the nature of virtue, practical wisdom, and human
flourishing. This book will be of interest to scholars and advanced
students working in virtue theory, moral philosophy, philosophy of
mind and action, and moral education.
