Description
Pinckaers' Morality: The Catholic View offers a fresh perspective on Christian morality, one that prioritises happiness and union with God. This approach turns traditional notions of obligation on their head, instead focusing on the human flourishing that arises from living a life of virtue.
The book draws on a range of sources, including the Sermon on the Mount, Romans 12-15, Augustine's writings, and Aquinas' teachings, to present a comprehensive vision of Catholic morality. By recovering the classical view of the moral life as a quest for happiness, Pinckaers provides a clear and accessible guide for readers seeking to deepen their understanding of Christian ethics.
With its warm recommendation from First Things, Morality: The Catholic View is an ideal choice for anyone looking to explore the principles of Catholic morality in a clear and engaging way.
