Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Ethics The present work is designed as an introductory treatise upon the fundamental problems of theoretical ethics, and therefore to obtain standing ground from which to consider the practical questions that are affected by general principles. The book may seem rather an elaborate treatise for an introduction, but so great are the complications of ethical problems, so manifold are their interests, and so various have been opinions regarding them, that a writer to-day must choose between the perfunctory task of pro ducing a mere syllabus of words and the more important duty of saying enough to satisfy the wants of those who desire more than platitudes, and who wish some insight into the complexities of the case. The analysis of various questions has been made as complete as reasonable limits would allow, with the special pur pose Of trying to throw some light on the perplexities of ethical theories, and to present the author's conclusions regarding them. This purpose has involved a very exhaustive application of the analytic method, which may try the patience of those who desire synthetic and comprehensive results. But the writer is con vinced that we shall never get out of the wilderness of scholastic controversy and see-sawing with traditional theories until the analytic method is first carefully applied and our exact where abouts determined. We may then give a synthetic survey of the field without embroiling ourselves in the hocus - pocus of endless and futile discussions about 'words that may have a thousand meanings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Ethics An apology is perhaps needed for overstepping bounds with so large a bundle of annotations; which, since they are not at all essential to unfolding the theory, might have been omitted, and may be overlooked. This desultory collection of citations from authorities, of quotations from general lit erature, of discussions on minor points, together with what ever occurred to me as illustrative, constitutes in some measure a variorum, an anthology. I feel quite sure that the scholarly reader will be pleased to see the very words of eminent writers, that the earnest student will be glad to have side-lights and finger-posts on the way, and that neither will be offended if here and there he stumble on an enliven ing trifle.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Moral Science The author to whom I am under the greatest obligations is Bishop Butler. The chapter on Conscience is, as I suppose, but little more than a development of his ideas on the same subject. How much more I owe to this incomparable wri ter, I know not. As it was the study of his ser mons on human nature, that first turned my at tention to this Subject, there are, doubtless, many trains of thought which I have derived from him, but which I have not been able to trace to their source, as they have long since become incorpo rate% with my own reflections. The article on the abbath, as is stated in the text, is derived chiefly from the tract of Mr. J. J. Gurney, on the same subject. Entertaining those views of the Sacred Scriptures, which I have expressed in the work itself, it is scarcely necessary to add here, that] consider them the great source of moral truth; and that a system of ethics will be true, just in proportion as it. Develops their meaning. To do this has been my object; and to have, in ever so humble a manner, accomplished it, I shall consider as the greatest possible success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Moral Philosophy: Comprising the Theory of Morals and Practical Ethics Knowledge is congenial to the humanmind. The acquisition of it affprds a pleasure, independent of the uses to which it may be applied. But it is the practical htility of any branch Of knowledge, which gives it its chief value. The difference between the practical utility of the various branches of knowl edge, 15 veryg Great. Some can scarcely be said to be of any benefit beyond the momentary gratification afforded by the acquisition others produce an effect on the mind which is indirectly beneficial; and others are directly subservient to the purposes Of human life. Such knowledge and such studies, as tend to strengthen and elevate the mind, to induce a habit Of reflection, and to Withdraw the thoughts from the thousand trifles by which they are so prone to be oc cupied, exert a salutary influence on the conduct'and on the happiness of the individual, by means of the' effect which they produce on the mind, though they may not be capable of being directly applied many practical purposes. But as it is the disposition of heart which individuals cherish, and the course Of moral conduct which they pursue, that are the grand source of happiness or misery to themselves and oth 7 ers, that knowledge which is best adapted to melior ate the disposition and to regulate the conduct, must he most worthy of our attention and pursuit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the perfect companion to introduction to ethics courses, Dell'Olio and Simon's reader includes the most influential ethical theories without overwhelming the beginning student. It contains a variety of readings encompassing contemporary and classic philosophers, male and female perspectives of both Western and non-Western ethical traditions, and readings in both theoretical and applied ethics. Introduction to Ethics comprises of thirty-seven essays divided into nine chapters; the first chapter introduces the nature of moral theory with a brief account of the different moral theories that will follow in the text. Chapters 2 through 8 are each devoted to a particular moral theory with readings that represent the position and those who challenge it, accompanied by an application of the theory to a particular moral problem. Finally, chapter 9 offers readings in practical guidance on 'living a good life.' Each chapter has a brief introduction that provides an overview of the selection with pointers on what to note as the selection is read and concludes with a series of thought-provoking study questions and a selection for further reading making it easier for students to understand and appreciate their reading.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Formal and Material Elements of Kant's Ethics P the matter of desire; it is the sense-given, hence is par ticular, empirical and merely contingent. For Form, on the other hand, we may find two sources, Reason and the Understanding, used to denote respectively the faculty which deals with Ideas not based on intuition, but produced from its own spontaneity, and that which has no conceptions except those derived from sensible intuition. When he reached the period of his ethical writings, Kant had finished his investigation of the limits of the Understand ing, and Reason became of first importance as a field of re search. As a result, the Understanding falls into the back ground, and occupies ewhat equivocal position. As a faculty of abstraction, ongs to the formal world and is concerned with the form of knowledge.) As opposed to the intelligible intuitionless world in which Reason dwells by its purely spontaneous nature, Understanding ranks with the sensible world of intuitions. (the division of intelligible and sensible worlds is the one most prominently before Kant's mind in his Eth Nevertheless his phraseology is not so constant as not ow of a frequent use of the division be tween Sensibility and Understanding. Thus comes to have two distinct references. It may I) merely the universal to be arrived at by abstraction from the particulars given in intuition; (2) the rational, as distinct from the sensible and intelligible, and not derived from intuition. In the former sense, Kant is aconceptualist; though there is an intimation, in his conception of the Categories, that if the universal does not lie in the mind before the particular is presented in intuition, at least the mind is ready beforenand for such presentation.

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.
