Excerpt: ...470, 47a), is the Rule of Benevolence.. 'Here we are supposed to judge that there is something intrinsically desirable--some result which it would be reasonable for each individual to seek for himself if he considered himself alone. Let us call this the individual's Good or Welfare: then what Clarke urges is, that the Good of any one individual cannot be more intrinsically desirable, because it is his, than the equal Good of any other individual.' (360.) 'I cannot regard the fulfilment of my desires, or my own happiness, as intrinsically more desirable (or more to be regarded vby me as a rational end) than the equal happiness of any one else.' (364.) Mr. Sidgwick proceeds: 'But now, of these two propositions, the first is a necessary postulate of all ethical systems, being an expression of what is involved in the mere conception of objective rightness and wrongness of conduct, while the second is the fundamental principle of that particular system which (in Book I.) we called Utilitarianism.' The first of these propositions, I remark, is not an expression of what is involved but of what is explicitly stated in 'objective rightness;' and here again in the second the phrases 'desirable' and rational end' postulate abstraction from 'the individuality of the individual.' In respect of the rules we have no right to distinguish one individual from another, and this second proposition comes to no more than 'X cannot regard his own happiness as more desirable than the equal happiness of X, ' which seems to me either tautological or nonsensical1. As Mr. Sidgwick says, 'This seems to be as much a selfevident truth as the principle of Equity' (360). I agree with him in this point. My objection is that it is self-evident in the sense of having the..

Download or read book Henry Sidgwick Eye of the Universe written by Bart Schultz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-06-07 with total page 886 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Sidgwick was one of the great intellectual figures of nineteenth-century Britain. He was first and foremost a great moral philosopher, whose masterwork The Methods of Ethics is still widely studied today. He also wrote on economics, politics, education and literature. He was deeply involved in the founding of the first college for women at the University of Cambridge. He was also much concerned with the sexual politics of his close friend John Addington Symonds, a pioneer of gay studies. Through his famous student, G. E. Moore, a direct line can be traced from Sidgwick and his circle to the Bloomsbury group. Bart Schultz has written a magisterial overview of this great Victorian sage. This biography will be eagerly sought out by readers interested in philosophy, Victorian literary studies, the history of ideas, the history of psychology and gender and gay studies.

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Well Being written by Guy Fletcher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of well-being is one of the oldest and most important topics in philosophy and ethics, going back to ancient Greek philosophy. Following the boom in happiness studies in the last few years it has moved to centre stage, grabbing media headlines and the attention of scientists, psychologists and economists. Yet little is actually known about well-being and it is an idea that is often poorly articulated. The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Well-Being provides a comprehensive, outstanding guide and reference source to the key topics and debates in this exciting subject. Comprising over 40 chapters by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into six parts: well-being in the history of philosophy current theories of well-being, including hedonism and perfectionism examples of well-being and its opposites, including friendship and virtue and pain and death theoretical issues, such as well-being and value, harm, identity and well-being and children well-being in moral and political philosophy well-being and related subjects, including law, economics and medicine. Essential reading for students and researchers in ethics and political philosophy, it is also an invaluable resource for those in related disciplines such as psychology, politics and sociology.
