Logic or Ethics Ch. Fortitude
§.2. Aristotelians
2
In battle or otherwise on any other occasion a man exposes himself to
the danger of death, or pain runs the risk of being
deprived of life, or actually deprives himself makes an actual sacrifice of it?
The act then performed exercised by him is it an act of
fortitude? Ask the Compendialist: Oh says he, before
I give you an answer you must tell me the occasion:
if I approve of it if it has my approbation then it is an act of fortitude:
but but if not, not.
Self-slayers for example, duellists, robbers, and men who subject or expose themselves
to death, or
instant danger of death
in defence of their personal liberty.
Four different sets of people for example, who
had they do what this no one now if they endure or expose themselves to what they
will never can they by any such sufferance or any such
exposure render them give to their doings the character
and praise of act of fortitude.
