The House of Nine Virtues - Tapa dura

The House Of Nine Virtues is a pragmatic response to the crisis of our age, a crisis best summarized by Flannery O'Conner's observation that 'in our fractured culture, we cannot agree on morals." Professor Fogarty writes with acute awareness of historical moral constructs, but this book has little in common with those that merely suggest contemporary application of insights gleaned from other times and cultures. This work is a cohesive approach to life and morality that, because it is built on a foundation of universally shared aspirations, offers realistic hope for achieving cultural harmony.
