Описание: This book explores the nitty-gritty details of particular virtues. Most of the virtues discussed-ambition, cheerfulness, creativity, magnificence, pride, wit, wonder-have been almost wholly neglected by contemporary ethicists.
Описание: Designed to make as easy as possible a first reading of key passages from the Summa theologiae. The book contains selections from the Summa that are most influential, most important, or likely to be most interesting to the contemporary reader. The text of the Summa itself is edited and arranged for beginners.
Описание: This book advocates a new understanding of Aquinas`s virtue ethics, based not on the ideals of classical antiquity articulated by Aristotle, but on situations involving an irreducible "I-you" relationship. This understanding promotes a shift in the explanation of character development from the first person to second-person relatedness.

Описание:
This study locates Aquinas’s theory of infused and acquired virtue in his foundational understanding of nature and grace.
Aquinas holds that all the virtues are bestowed on humans by God along with the gift of sanctifying grace. Since he also holds, with Aristotle, that we can create virtuous dispositions in ourselves through our own repeated good acts, a question arises: How are we to understand the relationship between the virtues God infuses at the moment of grace and virtues that are gradually acquired over time? In this important book, Angela McKay Knobel provides a detailed examination of Aquinas’s theory of infused moral virtue, with special attention to the question of how the infused and acquired moral virtues are related. Part 1 examines Aquinas’s own explicit remarks about the infused and acquired virtues and considers whether and to what extent a coherent “theory” of the relationship between the infused and acquired virtues can be found in Aquinas. Knobel argues that while Aquinas says almost nothing about how the infused and acquired virtues are related, he clearly does believe that the “structure” of the infused virtues mirrors that of the acquired in important ways. Part 2 uses that structure to evaluate existing interpretations of Aquinas and argues that no existing account adequately captures Aquinas’s most fundamental commitments. Knobel ultimately argues that the correct account lies somewhere between the two most commonly advocated theories. Written primarily for students and scholars of moral philosophy and theology, the book will also appeal to readers interested in understanding Aquinas’s theory of virtue.
Описание: Although the virtues are implicit in Catholic Social Teaching, they are too often overlooked. In this pioneering study, Andrew M. Yuengert draws on the neo-Aristotelian virtues tradition to bring the virtue of practical wisdom into an explicit and wide-ranging engagement with the Church's social doctrine. Practical wisdom and the virtues clarify the meaning of Christian personalism, highlight the irreplaceable role of the laity in social reform, and bring attention to the important task of lay formation in virtue. This form of wisdom also offers new insights into the Church's dialogue with economics and the social sciences, and reframes practical political disagreements between popes, bishops, and the laity in a way that challenges both laypersons and episcopal leadership. Yuengert's study respects the Church's social tradition, while showing how it might develop to be more practical. By proposing active engagement with practical wisdom, he demonstrates how Catholic Social Teaching can more effectively inform and inspire practical social reform.

Описание:
In a pluralistic society such as ours, tolerance is a virtue--but it doesn't always seem so. Some suspect that it entangles us in unacceptable moral compromises and inequalities of power, while others dismiss it as mere political correctness or doubt that it can safeguard the moral and political relationships we value. Tolerance among the Virtues provides a vigorous defense of tolerance against its many critics and shows why the virtue of tolerance involves exercising judgment across a variety of different circumstances and relationships--not simply applying a prescribed set of rules.
Drawing inspiration from St. Paul, Aquinas, and Wittgenstein, John Bowlin offers a nuanced inquiry into tolerance as a virtue. He explains why the advocates and debunkers of toleration have reached an impasse, and he suggests a new way forward by distinguishing the virtue of tolerance from its false look-alikes, and from its sibling, forbearance. Some acts of toleration are right and good, while others amount to indifference, complicity, or condescension. Some persons are able to draw these distinctions well and to act in accord with their better judgment. When we praise them as tolerant, we are commending them as virtuous. Bowlin explores what that commendation means.
Tolerance among the Virtues offers invaluable insights into how to live amid differences we cannot endorse--beliefs we consider false, actions we think are unjust, institutional arrangements we consider cruel or corrupt, and persons who embody what we oppose.
Описание: All children should be blessed with the glorious gift of a beautiful Christian name. For any Christian child, it is imperative. What could compare to the blessing of a friend in heaven to pray for a child's soul throughout his or her earthly life?
The Complete Christian Baby Name Book was compiled lovingly over the course of several years by a Catholic mother who always hoped to find one complete list of Christian baby names. She took all known sources of Catholic names from The Roman Martyrology, Rev. Dunne's work, Is It a Saint's Name? And Butler's extensive Lives of the Fathers, Martyrs, and Other Principal Saints to create one extensive, easily accessible reference book.
The Complete Christian Baby Name Book also includes name meanings, ethnic origins of names, and the corresponding saint's feast day to add to the fun of choosing baby names. This book can also be used in finding saint names for confirmation or the religious life.
