Description
Dr. Candace Vogler will deliver the fifth lecture in the 2014-2015 Philosophy Speaker Series at Wheaton College. The philosophy lecture will be titled "Turning to Aquinas in Moral Philosophy" Dr. Vogler is a professor of philosophy at The University of Chicago. In her lecture she will argue that Aquinas's moral psychology, deeply indebted to Aristotle, gives insight into the role and structure of virtue in a way that helps to illuminate both the acquired virtues Aristotle recognized and the enlarged catalog of virtues we now recognize.
