About event
How do the roles we inhabit (parent, friend, citizen, philosopher, etc.) inform our ethical obligations and practical reasoning? This international conference brings together scholars working at the intersection of ancient thought and contemporary moral philosophy to explore the normative weight and conceptual richness of social roles. Discussions will range from Stoic ethics and Confucian traditions to modern accounts of friendship, personae, and practical deliberation.
Organized by the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Faculty of Arts, Charles University.
The event is open to the academic community and all those interested in virtue ethics, practical philosophy, and the history of moral thought.
The venue: room P325, Faculty of Arts, Charles University, nám. Jana Palacha 1/2
