The Social Ion, 2021
In my paper, I would like to compose a comparative analysis between Aristotle and Immanuel Kant's notion of friendship as a moral virtue.

It is a relationship between two men who have affection for each other and who recognize each other's affection.

MORAL VIRTUE AND REASONS FOR ACTION
Philosophical Issues, 2009Moral virtue is a central notion in ethics, and understanding it is a challenge for action theory and moral psychology. It is no easy task to provide an account of it, but even a plausible account of what moral virtue is leaves largely open the difficult question of what it is to act virtuously and the related question of how we can ensure that we do ...

I argue that curiosity about the world deserves attention as a moral virtue, even apart from the role it may play in (the more generally praised) love of wisdom.
