Fortitude

Luigino Bruni ()

A chapter in A Lexicon of Social Well-Being, 2015, pp 61-63 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract If there is a virtue that is especially valuable in times of crisis, it must be fortitude. This is the capacity to go on with life and persist despite enduring hardships. It is a spiritual and moral force that was considered extremely important by past generations, so much so that it was commonly called the cardinal virtue.
