Listen "Virtue and The Soul's Embodiment"

Episode Synopsis

In this show, we discuss Aristotle's conception of virtue and his ethical theory with Dr. Michael Russo. Specifically, we focus on the role that the body plays in the acquisition of moral excellence. As we will discuss, Aristotle's view runs counter to the movement in education which presumes that taking oaths and taking more ethics classes is the proper means by which to cultivate character.
