Found or Sought? Hegel vs MacIntyre on the Good Life and the Virtues. Robert Stern (U Sheffield) @ New School M104 (The Bark Room), Sheila C. Johnson Design Center
Sep 23 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm

We are excited to announce that the first workshop of the semester will take place in person on Friday, September 23rd from *4-6pm* (please note the change in the usual time). Robert Stern (University of Sheffield) will be giving a talk entitled, “Found or Sought? Hegel vs MacIntyre on the Good Life and the Virtues.” Please note that the talk will take place at The New School, Room M104 (The Bark Room), Sheila C. Johnson Design Center (The Sheila C. Johnson Design Center is on the southwest corner of 5th ave and 13th street)

To attend the talk in person you will need to be up-to-date with vaccinations and boosters and set up a CLEAR Health Pass account in advance. Directions for visitor access are below.

The event has been organized by the Wittgenstein Workshop.

Abstract: This paper draws a contrast between Hegel and MacIntyre, treating both as post-Kantian perfectionists. The claim is that while Hegel treats the good life as something found, and to be implemented in the rational state, MacIntyre treats it as something to be sought. This difference, it is argued, is reflected in their respective accounts of the virtues: for Hegel, the key virtue becomes rectitude, whereas for MacIntyre a wider range of virtues is required, to make this quest for the good achievable. Using the characters of Walt and Travis from Paris, Texas to illustrate the argument, it is suggested that the MacIntyrean option is to be preferred.

GUEST AND VISITOR ACCESS AND VACCINATION POLICY

Guests and visitors must be up-to-date with their COVID-19 vaccinations, including a booster when eligible.

Beginning Monday, August 15, The New School will use CLEAR’S Health Pass, an online tool that safely and simply verifies proof of COVID-19 vaccination, to issue guest passes. The CLEAR Health Pass replaces on-site manual vaccination checking and physical guest passes. CLEAR accounts should be set up in advance of arrival on campus and will remain active for a month, requiring only a selfie to reactivate. Details and instructions about creating and setting up a CLEAR account can be found on our website.

The Welcome Center Visitors Desk will remain open in a limited capacity to support the guests who may not be able to use CLEAR.

Before coming to campus, guests must verify vaccination records with the university.

If visitors are all of the below:

  • 18 years of age or older.
  • Or, are under 18 years of age and visiting campus with someone over 18.
  • Have access to a mobile device.
  • Have proof of vaccination accepted by CLEAR
  • Domestic: Pictures of CDC card and Smart QR Codes
  • International: EU Digital COVID Certification (DCC) and UK National Health Service (NHS) COVID Pass.
  • Have a picture ID with the name matching the name on the vaccination record.

If visitors are at least one of the below:

  • Under 18 years of age coming alone.
  • Do not have access to a mobile device.
  • Have proof of vaccination that is not accepted by CLEAR (e.g., other countries than the US, UK, EU).
  • Do not have a picture ID with the name matching the name on the vaccination record.
  • Cannot create or use a CLEAR account.

Use CLEAR to verify vaccination records and receive a guest pass in the app. 

We recommend creating and verifying your account in advance of coming to campus.
