Abstract

This presentation is part of the Jerry Falwell Library's Faculty Author Series. Dr. Karen Prior explores the twelve virtues that philosophers and theologians have identified as essential for “the good life,” and connects those to great works of literature from both ancient and modern times, “helping readers learn to love life, literature, and God through their encounters with great writing.” A book signing immediately followed the talk.
