What can Aristotle teach us that is relevant to contemporary moral
and educational concerns? What can we learn from him about the
nature of moral development, the justifiability and educability of
emotions, the possibility of friendship between parents and their
children, or the fundamental aims of teaching? The message of this
book is that Aristotle has much to teach us about those issues and
many others. In a formidable display of boundary-breaking
scholarship, drawing upon the domains of philosophy, education and
psychology, KristjA!n KristjA!nsson analyses and dispels myriad
misconceptions about Aristotle's views on morality, emotions and
education that abound in the current literature - including the
claims of the emotional intelligence theorists that they have
revitalised Aristotle's message for the present day. The book
proceeds by enlightening and astute forays into areas covered by
Aristotle's canonical works, while simultaneously gauging their
pertinence for recent trends in moral education. This is an
arresting book on how to balance the demands of head and heart: a
book that deepens the contemporary discourse on emotion cultivation
and virtuous living and one that will excite any student of moral
education, whether academic or practitioner.
