Abstract

The term “sophia” was used by ancient Greek philosophers to pick out a rather diverse range of states, some of which are morally or practically oriented and others of which have a robust epistemic dimension.1 My interest is with sophia understood as an intellectual virtue and thus in the latter more theoretical or epistemic way.
