In this first English translation of the prize-winning Dutch title
Leven is Een Kunst, Paul van Tongeren creates a new kind of virtue
ethics, one that centres on how to 'live well' in our contemporary
world. While virtue ethics is based on the moral philosophy of
Aristotle, it has had many interpretations and iterations
throughout history and features prominently in the thinking of the
Stoics, Christian narratives and the writings of Nietzsche. The Art
of Living Well explores and expands upon these traditions, using
them as a basis to form a new interpretation; one that foregrounds
art and creativity as paramount to the struggle to act in an
authentic and moral way. Acting as both a clear introduction to
virtue ethics and moral philosophy and a serious work of original
philosophy, this book connects philosophy with real lived
experience and tackles, head-on, the perennial philosophical
question: 'how do we live well?'
