Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ultimatum of Pessimism, an Ethical Study 1. The question concerning the Worth of Life - Is Life Worthy, or Worthless, or worse than Worthless? - occupies in Ethics a position in some respects similar to that of the Personality of God in scientific Theology. This latter science is not, indeed, altogether abolished when, instead of the expression 'Divine Person,' we substitute such forms as 'Integral of Creation,' or 'Stream of Tendency;' but the structures raised upon such different bases bear small resemblance to each other, and Theology really becomes an equivocal term. Similarly in Ethics, we may lay down the proposition that Life is worse than worthless, and we can build on this postulate a science of morals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ultimatum of Pessimism, an Ethical Study Among those who hold that the balance is on the side of happiness, i.e. Is positive, we may distinguish two classes - there are some who hope a still further development of the positive Resultant and there are others who fear its progressive diminution, and, still worse, its ultimate degeneracy, through zero, to the negative side. These might respectively be described by the uncouth but analogical compounds Bono meliorists and Bono-pejorists. (to call a man an Optimo-meliorist would be plainly inadmissible.) Similarly with respect to the maintainers of the negative balance. Some may hope that the evil Resultant will diminish, and, perhaps, passing through zero, may even reach the positive side. Others may dread its still further growth in a downward direction from the neutral line of life. These would of course be Malo-meliorists and Malo-pejorists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opening the way for a reexamination of Matthew Arnold's unique contributions to ethical criticism, James Walter Caufield emphasizes the central role of philosophical pessimism in Arnold's master tropes of "culture" and "conduct." Caufield uses Arnold's ethics as a lens through which to view key literary and cultural movements of the past 150 years, demonstrating that Arnoldian conduct is grounded in a Victorian ethic of "renouncement," a form of altruism that wholly informs both Arnold's poetry and prose and sets him apart from the many nineteenth-century public moralists. Arnold's thought is situated within a cultural and philosophical context that shows the continuing relevance of "renouncement" to much contemporary ethical reflection, from the political kenosis of Giorgio Agamben and the pensiero debole of Gianni Vattimo, to the ethical criticism of Wayne C. Booth and Martha Nussbaum. In refocusing attention on Arnold's place within the broad history of critical and social thought, Caufield returns the poet and critic to his proper place as a founding father of modern cultural criticism.
