• 📙 Learning From MacIntyre

  This important form of knowing, according to Aristotle, is available only to those who have already been well brought up. Prior to acquiring this knowledge there was, in youth, a special form of education—habituation into good practices that organized the non-rational parts of the soul so as to put the person in a position to respond well to what reason later came to understand. The lectures of the Nicomachean Ethics are meant to be a completion and perfection of the training that has gone before.
