Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on the History of Moral Philosophy The Dissertations of Dugald Stewart and of Mack intosh on the history of Moral Philosophy go over much of the same ground as my Lectures: but still I hope that the reflexions which the perusal of our English moralists has suggested to me, may have some interest for those who trace the progress of moral opinions and principles among men.

Download or read book Lectures on the History of Moral Philosophy written by John Rawls and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2000-11-15 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The premier political philosopher of his day, John Rawls, in three decades of teaching at Harvard, has had a profound influence on the way philosophical ethics is approached and understood today. This book brings together the lectures that inspired a generation of students--and a regeneration of moral philosophy. It invites readers to learn from the most noted exemplars of modern moral philosophy with the inspired guidance of one of contemporary philosophy's most noteworthy practitioners and teachers. Central to Rawls's approach is the idea that respectful attention to the great texts of our tradition can lead to a fruitful exchange of ideas across the centuries. In this spirit, his book engages thinkers such as Leibniz, Hume, Kant, and Hegel as they struggle in brilliant and instructive ways to define the role of a moral conception in human life. The lectures delineate four basic types of moral reasoning: perfectionism, utilitarianism, intuitionism, and--the ultimate focus of Rawls's course--Kantian constructivism. Comprising a superb course on the history of moral philosophy, they also afford unique insight into how John Rawls has transformed our view of this history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Moral Philosophy: Delivered Before the Philosophical Association at Edinburgh In twenty lectures, addressed to such an audience, only a small portion of a very extensive field of science could be touched upon. It was necessary also to avoid, as much as possible, abstract and speculative questions, and to dwell chief y on topics simple, interesting, and practically useful. These circumstances account for the introduction of such subjects as Suretyship, Arbitration, Guardianship, and some others, not usually treated of in works on Moral Philosophy; and also for the occasional omission of that rigid application of the principles on which the work is founded, to the case of every duty, which would have been necessary in a purely scientific treatise. These principles, however, although not always stated, are never intentionally departed from. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
