I have a PhD in the philosophy of religion from McGill University, and many years experience teaching philosophy and ethics.  One of the courses I have taught is Environmental Virtue Ethics (ENVR 380), an open enrollment undergraduate course, at McGill University.  I have also taught Confucius and Confucianism in Religious Ethics and the Environment (RELG 270), an open enrollment undergraduate course at McGill University.  Both courses engage in the history of Virtue Ethics from ancient Greece and China to the present day.  This class is based on the introduction to Virtue Ethics I gave to undergraduates for these classes.  

My PhD examined how the philosophy of Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) engaged and transformed the philosophies of Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) and Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) as the grounding for his secular and philosophical Virtue Ethic he termed the 'reverence for life' ethic.  This PhD research was followed-up with a book, The New Rationalism: Albert Schweitzer’s Philosophy of Reverence for Life, McGill-Queens University Press (2013).  

宿題が提供されます
A "practice quiz" is posted online before class.  Students will use it to focus on important names, history, terms, and principles during the lecture.  It is not graded; it is merely a learning tool to get the most out of the class, and to have a concise summary to keep afterwards.
