Question 58 — Of the Difference between Moral and Intellectual Virtues

We must now consider moral virtues. We shall speak (1) of the difference between them and intellectual virtues; (2) of their distinction, one from another, in respect of their proper matter; (3) of the difference between the chief or cardinal virtues and the others.

Under the first head there are five points of inquiry:

(1) Whether every virtue is a moral virtue?

• (2) Whether moral virtue differs from intellectual virtue?
• (3) Whether virtue is adequately divided into moral and intellectual virtue?
• (4) Whether there can be moral without intellectual virtue?
• (5) Whether, on the other hand, there can be intellectual without moral virtue?
