Learning outcomes
|
The course Ethics of Moral and Theological Virtues will present the ethics of character traditionally referred to as virtue ethics. In addition to introducing individual positive character traits (virtues), students will also learn about the relationship between virtue ethics and the biblical message and its risks. The course also includes the doctrine of repentance (one of the virtues in Catholic theology) and reconciliation.
After completing the course, you will be able: - apply the Catholic doctrine of reconciliation and repentance - interpret the ethics of virtues of ancient philosophers, church fathers and scholastics in the usual way - compare the ethics of virtues and other ethical approaches (normative ethics, consequentialist ethics) - demonstrate convergences and differences between philosophical virtue ethics and biblical ethics - critically assess the legitimacy of objections to virtue ethics coming from both theological tradition and social psychology - demonstrate the differences between classical and retributive justice - apply Keenan's theory of new cardinal virtues to different areas of life - apply the ethics of virtues to the performance of various professions - apply virtue ethics in hagiology
