Virtue ethics is an approach to normative ethics that emphasizes the
great character traits of moral agents. As many authors have pointed
out, this approach also has great potential in contemporary ethical
education. The following text will focus on the possibility practically
utilising virtue ethics in ethical education in Slovakia. One of the most
influential figures in the development of this topic in Slovakia is Ladislav Lencz, who also created key texts for teachers of ethical education.
His concept is based primarily on a pedagogical and psychological
basis, inspired by Spanish psychologist R.R. Olivar’s concept of prosociality. However, some of L. Lencz’s texts also display elements of virtue ethics. This article will point out the possibilities of implementing
virtue ethics in ethical education.

Metal music is a quite popular subculture in Slovakia. Although heavy metal music simply noise for some, it is not so shallow and there are deeper meanings. There have been many metal bands that have addressed social concerns, as well as ethical and philosophical questions. Metal music uses various metaphors and other tropes to express philosophical ideas; not only in lyrics, but also in its use of melody. The focus here will be on several influential contemporary metal bands from Central Slovakia, and the philosophical and ethical aspects of their metal poetry.
