Comprehensivist Wednesdays: Greg Sadler on the Legacy of Alasdair MacIntyre

Join us for a special online conversation with Greg Sadler on the life and work of Alasdair MacIntyre, one of the most influential philosophers of the past century.

MacIntyre’s contributions to virtue ethics, moral philosophy, and the role of traditions in shaping moral reasoning continue to influence how we understand the good life, community, and moral practice. His works, including "Plain Persons and Moral Philosophy" and "After Virtue", have inspired scholars, educators, and practitioners across many fields.

Greg Sadler, who studied with MacIntyre as a Faculty Fellow at Notre Dame’s Erasmus Institute, brings both scholarly insight and personal reflections on MacIntyre’s thought and character. This session will explore MacIntyre’s lasting contributions to philosophy and offer an opportunity to reflect on his enduring legacy.

Welcome to the "Comprehensivist Wednesdays" series hosted by 52 Living Ideas and the Greater Philadelphia Thinking Society. Transdisciplinarity, Renaissance humanism, homo universalis, and Polymathy are some of the ways of describing this approach, which Buckminster Fuller called Comprehensivity and described as “macro-comprehensive and micro-incisive.”
