Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prolegomena to Ethics The works by which Professor Green has hitherto been chiefly known to the general public are his Introduction to Messrs. Longmans' edition of Hume's Philosophical Works, and his articles in the Contemporary Review on some doctrines of Mr. Spencer and Mr. Lewes. When in the year 1877 Mr. Green became Whyte's Professor of Moral Philosophy, his main desire was, both in his teaching and writing, and to develope more fully and in a more constructive way the ideas which underlay his previous critical writings and appeared in them. The present treatise is the first outcome of that desire; and doubtless it would have been only the first but for the premature and unexpected death of the author in March, 1882. Even the Prolegomena to Ethics (the title is the author's own) was left unfinished. The greater part of the book had been used, some of it twice over, in the professorial lectures; and about a quarter of it (the first 103 pages) was printed in the numbers of Mind for January, April, and July, 1882. But, according to a letter of the author written not long before his death, some twenty or thirty pages remained to be added, and, though with this exception the whole was written out nearly ready for printing, no part of it can be considered to have undergone the final revision. At his death Mr. Green left the charge of the manuscript to me; and I have now only to explain the course I have followed in preparing it for publication. The manuscript was written in paragraphs, but otherwise was continuous; and I may add that it was composed without regard to arrangement in books and chapters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Works, Vol. 1 This edition of the writings of the late Professor Green will include a selection from his unpublished papers, and all his printed works except the 'Prolegomena to Ethics' (Oxford, 1883). The first volume consists of his two principal pieces of philosophical criticism. The 'Introductions' to Hume's 'Treatise of Human Nature' were originally published in 1874, in the first and second volumes of the edition of Hume's works which he and Mr. T. H. Grose were preparing for Messrs. Longman. He had always been convinced that the English speculation of the last hundred years had been stationary or retrograde because it had not really faced the problem which Hume had bequeathed to it, and that the first condition of progress was a thorough re-examination of the foundations upon which, though Hume had shown their instability, it was still consciously or unconsciously building. Thus the history and criticism of the English philosophy of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries had long engaged his attention, and formed the subject of repeated courses of lectures, several drafts of which still remain among his papers.

Download or read book An Introductory Study of Ethics Classic Reprint written by Warner Fite and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introductory Study of Ethics The study of conduct which is here offered to students and teachers of philosophy was begun with the intention of furnishing simply a plain statement of the existing ethical' situation, by which I mean an analysis of the moral problem and a definition of the several types of ethical theory. But it was found impossible to make a plain state ment without adopting a point of view for the definition of the problem and the theories in question. And in the search for a satisfactory point of view I have been led to a more or less independent reconstruction of the situation as a whole. In a study like ethics, where nothing can be uttered which has not been in a measure foreshadowed, it is difficult to know how far one has succeeded in really contributing to the discussion; yet I hope that the following pages may be found not only useful to students beginning the study but of interest to those already familiar with its problems.

Download or read book A Historical Introduction to Ethics Classic Reprint written by Thomas Verner Moore and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Historical Introduction to Ethics The criticism of moral systems constitutes a special section. In this way the repetition of objections which hold against a number of systems has been avoided. In the classroom, how ever, the author has departed from this plan. Students require and often request some kind of criticism before the lecturer passes from one system to another. The best plan in actual practice is to indicate the chief lines of criticism in concluding the analysis of an author, and toward the end of the course to summarize the various systems, giving a general and special criticism of the theories of morality. The collection of the points of criticism into one division, while having special advan tages in a printed work, need not interfere with the carrying out of the above method in practice, for it is a very easy matter to turn from one part of a book to another. In the choice of the types of ethical theory scarcely any two men would agree, and the author can scarcely hope to escape the accusation of most serious omissions. Some of these omissions will, however, be pardoned by one who bears in mind that the present work does not pretend to be a history of ethics, that the number of types must be relatively few, lest the student be lost in a maze of detail, and that the author can only hope to introduce the student to the field of ethical speculation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common-Sense Ethics This book is a study, an earnest, fresh and living study of the ethical problem by a young philosopher who has reflected deeply on the metaphysical theories of the ancient and modern periods and has tried seriously to bring them into accord and to discover in them some guidance, particularly in regard to the political and social evolution which the present generation is witnessing. He describes his own View as that of common-sense Ethics. But by common sense it is clear that he does not intend to class himself with unphilosophical opinion, either in reasoned or con temptuous Opposition to philosophical theory.

An action con forming to moral law is a virtuous action. This qualification implies a contrary inclination overcome by will, etc. When, however, the virtuous desires prevail more and more uniformly until all struggle, all conflict has ceased, the victor, because of his victory, is dubbed a perfectly virtuous person (p. That is, in other words, a virtuous action implies contrary inclination, but a virtuous person is one who experiences no such opposition of duty and inclination.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of Ethics HE complaint which is made against meta physics - that it accomplishes nothing - may perhaps as justly be made against the science of Ethics. Men have thought much upon ethical problems, but those problems still remain, for the most part, unsolved. There are still many ethi cal schools, and, though the ground of the conflict has Shifted, the conflict has not ceased. But there is still much hope that this strife may be brought to an end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory of Ethics The logical framework of the position which as a matter of theory I have here attempted to defend will be found more particularly in the first three chapters. These undertake to be a connected piece of reasoning which to some extent stands or falls as a whole. The two more essential features are the conception of value, and the naturalistic theory of duty as having its source in certain negative emotional restrictions on the positive life of desire. In view of the fact that I disagree with his conclu sions on almost every point, I should like to acknowledge a special obligation to the ethical writings of Mr. G. E. Bloore. I have drawn to some extent in the following pages upon articles published at various times recently in the Philo sophical Review. The analysis has however been sharp ened at a good many points; and I trust the argument has been made more convincing by being brought together in a connected form.
