| Summary: | <div><p>Alasdair MacIntyre: narrative introduction to his work</p></div>In the wake of the publication of the last book of the British philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre, <em>Ethics in the Conflicts of Modernity: An Essay on Desire, Practical Reasoning, and Narrative</em>, this work proposes a way to understand his bibliographical production in the context of the narrative of his life and his intellectual career. It is elaborated a periodization of the itinerary of MacIntyre, based on the references that the author himself has made of his academic life and in the proposals of several scholars of his thought. It is concluded that the narrative examination of MacIntyre’s work reveals that his philosophical project is basically marked by Aristotle and Aquinas, whose thought helped our author a solid proposal on the main issues of moral philosophy and philosophy of religion. This work is conceived as introductory because it focuses only on MacIntyre’s books, but it’s expected to serve as a solid basis for a thorough critical study —especially from a chronological perspective— of his entire work, which includes chapters of books, papers, interviews, among others. |
