dc.description.abstractVirtue cannot be self-contained but must be in place. We actualize a uniquely human capacity for excellence when we respect non-human life. If this really comes from appreciating otherness, then such human virtue is tributary to value in other forms of life. If a virtue ethics is unable to disentwine human virtues from intrinsic values in nature, we have but a half truth, dangerous if taken for the whole.
