Description
On Teaching and Learning Christian Ethics by D. Stephen Long A nuanced exploration of ethics reveals that Thomas Aquinas's concept of "infusing virtue" offers a more comprehensive understanding of moral life than traditional methods for guiding action. This thought-provoking work examines the approaches of two influential ethicists, Henry Sidgwick and F. D. Maurice, to shed light on how we teach and learn ethics. Long argues that the moral life is a gift rather than an achievement, and presents a compelling case for a more holistic approach to teaching ethics. By comparing the perspectives of these two thinkers, he provides a clear argument in favor of a more integrated understanding of ethics. This book offers a fresh perspective on the discipline of ethics, one that challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about moral life and learning.
