Notes

1. This point is essential to ethical theories that draw their inspiration from Aristotle’s focus on virtue and character. See Alasdair MacIntyre, After Virtue: A Study in Moral Theory, 3d ed. (Notre Dame, Indiana: University of Notre Dame Press, 2007).

2. This threefold distinction is borrowed from Hannah Arendt’s The Human Condition, (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1958). She owes it to John Locke, but uses it to untangle and expose the reversal of values that have characterized the modern world’s demotion of thinking and elevation of acting—all the while diminishing the political virtues that flourish in the public realm.
