Prudence is the prerequisite for skill. Building on this suspicion, Emanuel Seitz examines the essence of prudence from its beginnings in ancient philosophy to Heidegger's reinterpretations. He frees prudence from its dubious reputation of being no more than an instrumental calculus. Its real task is to provide advice on the form of life and skillful ways of dealing with the world. The attempt to conceive of human action in terms of prudence brings to light the blind spots in modern theories of morality, politics and society. It serves to illuminates the riddle of practice, explores the hidden meaning of cunning and explores what is possible for human beings beyond what is merely necessary.
