Hume's Place In Moral Philosophy
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Eighteenth century British moral philosophy focused on three issues: (a) moral apprehension; (b) moral motivation; and (c) the relationship of moral apprehension to moral motivation. Hume resolved these issues by a Copernican revolution in which the basic perspective is that of an engaged and socially responsible agent as opposed to the classic philosophical perspective of the disengaged theoretician. As a consequence he could distinguish clearly the cognitive from the affective elements in moral apprehension, identify the non-moral origins of moral motivation, and account for the growth of the moral perspective through sympathy. Signed by the author (Nicholas Capaldi is a professor emeritus and the Legendre-Soule Chair in Business Ethics at Loyola University New Orleans) in a short dedication but this has had no influence on the pricing. Previous had a few pages highlighted in soft pencil but they have been rubbed out.
