Abstract
Philippa Foot (1920-2010) is one of most prominent Twentieth century ethicists, and an influence extending from metaethics, to normative and applied ethics. In response to her time's orthodoxies, she is among the promoters of the retrieval of Aristotelian and Thomistic virtue ethics, which culminates in a radical form of ethical naturalism. This profile aims to highlight the most significant steps of Foot's philosophical path, to discuss them and to draw a brief history of their effects.
