Abstract

What has become known as ethics is said to have begun with Elizabeth Anscombe's Modern Moral Philosophy in 1958. Thereafter some philosophers published papers on the theme give virtue a chance, while others published papers with the names of various virtues as their titles. Of books there were Peter Geach's The Virtues and Alasdair MacIntyre's After Virtue; there were in a single year two books with the title Virtues and Vices, one by Philippa Foot, the other by James D. Wallace; there has more recently been Judith Shklar's Ordinary Vices. There was, quite a long time ago, John Rawls's A Theory of Justice,I and there is now Lawrence Becker's Reciprocity.
