ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the impact of Stoicism in British and American writings on ethics from the end of the Second World War to the present day. The discussion deals with two, partly overlapping, areas: ethical philosophy (especially on virtue ethics, the theory of happiness and ethical psychology) and practical ethics. The main focus is on independent works of philosophy or writings addressed to a broad audience rather than specialist scholarship on Stoic ethics, although relevant features of scholarship are also noted. The chapter combines detailed discussion of certain, especially important studies with more generalized comments on trends in the period.
