Through an historical survey Mitchell shows that the constant pendant to taste was an educational and cultural ideal, namely, that of the gentleman, whether he was an ancient Greek citizen-soldier, Roman magistrate, Confucian scholar-bureaucrat, Renaissance courtier, or Victorian grandee. . .Mitchell argues that it was neither an ethical doctrine nor methodology that provided the high cultures with moral and political leadership, but rather an elite social order. While the gentry in the traditional sense no longer exists, it nevertheless made significant historical contributions, and insofar as we are concerned to understand the present state of human affairs, we need to grasp the nature and import ofsaid contributions. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | | 关键词 | virtue ethics; sociology of culture; moral conscience; genteel virtues; gentry; aristocracy; moral philoso | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-20354-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-20356-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-20354-2 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
