Originally published in 1991, this book focuses on the concept of
virtue, and in particular on the virtue of wisdom or knowledge, as
it is found in the epic poems of Homer, some tragedies of
Sophocles, selected writings of Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoic and
Epicurean philosophers. The key questions discussed are the nature
of the virtues, their relation to each other, and the relation
between the virtues and happiness or well-being. This book provides
the background and interpretative framework to make classical works
on Ethics, such as Plato's Republic and Aristotle's Nicomachean
Ethics, accessible to readers with no training in the classics.
