A neutral introduction to virtue ethics – the oldest ethical approach in the history of philosophy, dating back to Aristotle and Plato, but in decline since the Enlightenment. At the end of the 20th century, virtue ethics experienced a renaissance and is now considered one of the three major paradigms of normative ethics, along with consequentialism and deontology. The role of virtue in the sense of excellence of character and intellect can be motivated from the perspective of very different (meta-)ethical positions. This introduction presents the variety of approaches to virtue ethics in a new and systematic way – comprehensible, clear, and with a focus on modern approaches.
