This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, book 2, and discusses the question: what is a virtue? Aristotle treats virtues and vices as habitual dispositions (hexeis, in Greek) -- so what precisely does that mean?
