Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... the mediating consequences; e. g., courage as the mean between foolhardiness and cowardice, foolbardiness being undue preponderance of impulse, cowardice lack of proper assertion of impulse; moderation is the balance between extravagance (preponderance of immediate impulse) and miserliness (preponderance of reflection), and so on. Alexander conveys the same idea by calling rightness a "moving equilibrium.' (Moral Order and Progress, pp. 97-111.) The same idea is also expressed in the conception of "self-realization," provided this is understood in the sense of expressing the concrete capacity of an individual agent, and not in the sense of filling in the blank scheme of some undefined, purely general self. (Green, Prolegomena to Ethics, 178-207; Mackenzie, Manual of Ethics, 136-38, and Bradley, Ethical Studies, chap. 6, tend to use the idea in the latter sense. For further criticism see Philosophical Review, Vol. II, p. 652, on Self-Realization as Moral Ideal.) CHAPTER V.--MORAL APPROBATION, VALUE AND STANDARD. Section XV.--Natural Good. The satisfaction which any impulse affords in its expression may be termed its natural value. It is equivalent towhat the economists term "value in use "--value which is directly enjoyed, but not measured. Such is the satisfaction which accompanies the fulfillment of the appetite of hunger or of thirst, in itself or apart from any consideration of its further bearings. But, as we have seen, the expression of an impulse is always referred back to it, and comes to constitute its meaning or the content of the act. Purely natural good is found therefore only in the original primitive satisfactions of early childhood: it is the state of animal innocence--the state of knowing neither good or evil, but simply...

Download or read book Dewey s Ethical Thought written by Jennifer Welchman and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first book on the development ofJohn Dewey's ethical thought, Jennifer Welchman revises the prevalent interpretation of his ethics. Her clear and engaging account traces the history of Dewey's distinctive moral philosophy from its roots in idealism during the 1890s through the pragmatist approach of his 1922 work, Human Nature and Conduct. Central to the development of Dewey's ethics was his lifelong conviction that the realms of science and morals, facts and values were reconcilable. This conviction, Welchman demonstrates, drove Dewey to reject the orthodox ethics of his day in favor of radical alternatives—first absolute idealism and later pragmatism. She reveals how Dewey came to adopt and subsequently to modify idealist ethics of self-realization. Welchman then explores the transformations in Dewey's conception of science that exploded the fragile truce between fact and value that he had negotiated as an idealist. Finally, she examines how Dewey developed his own instrumentalist accounts of moral value, conduct, and character that culminated in his best-known work of ethics, Human Nature and Conduct.

Book Principles of Instrumental Logic

Download or read book Principles of Instrumental Logic written by Donald F Koch and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2008-06-30 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Dewey delivered two sets of related lectures at the University of Chicago in the fall quarter 1895 and the spring quarter 1896. Designed for graduate students, the lectures show the birth of Dewey’s instrumentalist theory of inquiry in its application to ethical and political thinking. From 1891 through 1903, Dewey attempted to develop a revolutionary experimentalist approach to ethical inquiry, designed to replace the more traditional ways of moral theorizing that relied on the fixed moral knowledge given in advance of the situations in which they were applied. In the lectures on the logic of ethics, he sets forth and defends the view that the "is" in a moral judgment such as "This is good" is a coordinating factor in an inquiry. Although the subject matter of the lectures is highly technical, its significance is paramount. It provides the key to and opens the door for a theory that preserves the difference between strictly scientific inquiry and moral inquiry even while it provides a "scientific treatment" of the latter.

Book Ethics  Serapis Classics

Download or read book Ethics Serapis Classics written by John Dewey and published by Serapis Classics. This book was released on 2017-10-07 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The significance of this text in Ethics lies in its effort to awaken a vital conviction of the genuine reality of moral problems and the value of reflective thought in dealing with them. To this purpose are subordinated the presentation in Part I. of historic material; the discussion in Part II. of the different types of theoretical interpretation, and the consideration, in Part III., of some typical social and economic problems which characterize the present. Experience shows that the student of morals has difficulty in getting the field objectively and definitely before him so that its problems strike him as real problems. Conduct is so intimate that it is not easy to analyze. It is so important that to a large extent the perspective for regarding it has been unconsciously fixed by early training. The historical method of approach has proved in the classroom experience of the authors an effective method of meeting these difficulties. To follow the moral life through typical epochs of its development enables students to realize what is involved in their own habitual standpoints; it also presents a concrete body of subject-matter which serves as material of analysis and discussion.

Download or read book A Syllabus of Ethics written by William McKendree Bryant and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-13 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Syllabus of Ethics The present sketch is an outgrowth of work done during several years with my classes in the St. Louis High School. In its present form, however, the sketch has been prepared directly with a view to meeting the needs of the St. Louis Society of Pedagogy in so far as one of the Sections of that Society is organized for the express purpose of studying Ethics. My aim has been first of all to furnish a guide to what I cannot but regard as a specially fruitful method in the study of Ethics, rather than to present an elaborate scheme of the science of Ethics as such. On the other hand, as in my Syllabus of Psychology, so here, I have omitted details and have sought thus to bring into so much the clearer view the essential aspects of the subject, and have attempted also to indicate the vital relation which those aspects sustain one to another in the organic unity of human life.

Criticisms of John Dewey The Chicago School John Dewey's Logical Theory The Pragmatic Theory of Truth as Developed by Peirce, James, and Dewey John Dewey (1859-1952) is one of the primary figures associated with the philosophy of pragmatism and is considered one of the founders of functional psychology. His ideas have been influential in education and social reform. "No one doubts that thought, at least reflective, as distinct from what is sometimes called constitutive, thought, is derivative and secondary. It comes after something and out of something, and for the sake of something. No one doubts that the thinking of everyday practical life and of science is of this reflective type. We think about; we reflect over." (Studies in Logical Theory)
