A leading Catholic philosopher, he won a wide audience through such books as \u003ci\u003eThe Four Cardinal Virtues\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eAbout Love\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e This book is one of few extended studies of Pieper's thought—in particular, of the concept of hope. Pieper was one of the first modern philosophers to explore the idea of hope, and Schumacher discusses his development alongside contributions by Sartre, Jaspers, Marcel, Heidegger, Bloch, and other thinkers. He examines Pieper's treatment of hope as an aspect of individual potential and as an historical force, exploring such themes as dignity, ethics, the good, and the just.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52580229021976,"sku":"9780823222810","price":54.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/a-philosophy-of-hope-josef-pieper-and-the-contemporary-debate-on-hope-hardback-9780823222810","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
