The correlation between person and environment has long been a
central focus of phenomenological analysis. While phenomenology is
usually understood as a descriptive discipline showing how
essential features of the human encounter with things and people in
the world are articulated, phenomenology is also based on ethical
concerns. Husserl himself, the founder of the movement, gave
several lecture courses on ethics. This volume focuses on one trend
in ethics-virtue ethics-and its connection to phenomenology. The
essays explore how phenomenology contributes to this field of
ethics and clarifies some of its central issues, such as
flourishing and good character traits. The volume initiates a
conversation with virtue ethicists that is underrepresented in the
current literature. Phenomenology and Virtue Ethics offers
contributions from prominent phenomenologists who explore the
following issues: how phenomenology is connected to the ancient
Greek or Christian virtue tradition, how phenomenology and its
foundational thinkers are oriented toward virtue ethics, and how
phenomenology is itself a virtue discipline. The focus on
phenomenology and virtue ethics in a single volume is the first of
its kind.
