The Peaceable Kingdom: A Primer in Christian Ethics

Stanley M. Hauerwas · January 1, 2017 · Arts and Humanities

Abstract

Stanley Hauerwas presents an overall introduction to the themes and method that have distinguished his vision of Christian ethics. Emphasizing the significance of Jesus' life and teaching in shaping moral life, _The Peaceable Kingdom_ stresses the narrative character of moral rationality and the necessity of a historic community and tradition for morality. Hauerwas systematically develops the importance of character and virtue as elements of decision making and spirituality and stresses nonviolence as critical for shaping our understanding of Christian ethics.u000au000au00A9 University of Notre Dameu000au000aCopyright for most content is held by The University of Notre Dame.
