Beschreibung:
Daniel R. DeNicola is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy and former Provost at Gettysburg College. He is the author of Moral Philosophy: A Contemporary Introduction, as well as Learning to Flourish: A Philosophical Exploration of Liberal Education, and Understanding Ignorance: The Surprising Impact of What We Don't Know, winner of the 2018 PROSE Award in Philosophy.
This lively anthology provides classic and contemporary defenses and critiques of the central ethical theories, along with readings on a selection of moral issues such as freedom of expression, immigration, and the treatment of non-human animals. Generous excerpts of canonical texts are included alongside contemporary works, all carefully selected and thoughtfully edited for student use. Readings on the ethical theories are organized intuitively, by implicit source of value: god, human nature, culture, reason, consent, character, emotion, care, particulars, and intuitions. The interconnections among readings amplify teaching possibilities and create a vigorous conversation about morality.
