The scope of interest and reflection on virtue and the virtues is
as wide and deep as the questions we can ask about what makes a
moral agent's life decent, or noble, or holy rather than cruel, or
base, or sinful; or about the conditions of human character and
circumstance that make for good relations between family members,
friends, workers, fellow citizens, and strangers, and the sorts of
conditions that do not. Clearly these questions will inevitably be
directed to more finely grained features of everyday life in
particular contexts. Virtue and the Moral Life: Theological and
Philosophical Perspectives takes up these questions. In its ten
timely and original chapters, it considers the specific importance
of virtue ethics, its public significance for shaping a society's
common good, the value of civic integrity, warfare and returning
soldiers' sense of enlarged moral responsibility, the care for and
agency of children in contemporary secular consumer society, and
other questions involving moral failure, humility, and forgiveness.
