Alcuin, On Virtues And Vices - Humility, Compunction, And Fear Of God

This lecture discusses key ideas from the medieval monk, theologian, philosopher, and educator Alcuin of York's work, On Virtues and Vices.

Specifically it examines his discussion of humility, compunction of heart, and fear of God in chapters 10, 11, and 15. Each of these has to do with adopting proper perspective on oneself in relation to God and to one's own accomplishments, capacities, and actions
