This book is the first to offer a detailed analysis of Aristotelian
and Kantian ethics together, in a way that remains faithful to the
texts and responsive to debates in contemporary ethics. Recent
moral philosophy has seen a revival of interest in the concept of
virtue, and with it a reassessment of the role of virtue in the
work of Aristotle and Kant. This book brings that re-assessment to
a new level of sophistication. Nancy Sherman argues that Kant
preserves a notion of virtue in his moral theory that bears
recognisable traces of the Aristotelian and Stoic traditions, and
that his complex anthropology of morals brings him into surprising
alliance with Aristotle. She develops her argument through close
readings of major texts by both Aristotle and Kant, illustrating
points of congruence and contrast.
