This paper explores Aldus Huxley and Josef Pieper's
conceptions of what constitutes "the
good life." The conceptions of the
author concerning this matter are then compared with those of Huxley and Pieper. Examples from Huxley's book, "Brave New World" and Pieper's book, "Leisure: The Basis of Culture", are used to support their
conceptions of the good
life.
