AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Dr Casey argues that the classical virtues of courage, temperance, practical wisdom, and justice, which are largely ignored in modern moral philosophy, centrally define the good for Man. The values of success, pride, and worldliness remain alive, if insufficiently acknowledged, part of our moral thinking. The conflict between these values and our equally important Christian inheritance leads to tensions and contradictions in our understanding of the moral life.Casey, John is the author of 'Pagan Virtue An Essay in Ethics' with ISBN 9780198240037 and ISBN 0198240031.
