Reading The Fragility of Goodness | Alexandria
Read The Fragility of Goodness by Martha Nussbaum. Revealing how Greek tragedy holds the key to modern ethical dilemmas, Nussbaum shows that living well requires embracing vulnerability - not eliminating it. Nussbaum boldly argues that our pursuit of complete rational control undermines true human flourishing. Her radical insight? Our susceptibility to chance and emotion isn't a flaw, but the very essence of a meaningful life.
