Hume’s Moral Philosophy and Contemporary Psychology: Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Philosophy

Editat de Philip A. Reed, Rico Vitz
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 aug 2020
Recent work at the intersection of moral philosophy and the philosophy of psychology has dealt mostly with Aristotelian virtue ethics. The dearth of scholarship that engages with Hume’s moral philosophy, however, is both noticeable and peculiar. Hume's Moral Philosophy and Contemporary Psychology demonstrates how Hume’s moral philosophy comports with recent work from the empirical sciences and moral psychology. It shows how contemporary work in virtue ethics has much stronger similarities to the metaphysically thin conception of human nature that Hume developed, rather than the metaphysically thick conception of human nature that Aristotle espoused. It also reveals how contemporary work in moral motivation and moral epistemology has strong affinities with themes in Hume’s sympathetic sentimentalism.

Recenzii

"The volume's warm and enthusiastic endorsement of recent empirical sciences and its relation to Hume is welcome . . . It is great to have in a single volume a variety of illuminating ways in which Hume's morals are relevant to recent empirical work."Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
"Hume's Moral Philosophy and Contemporary Psychology is an exceptionally interesting and illuminating reflection on Hume’s contributions to moral philosophy and in particular its relations, both methodological and doctrinal, to contemporary cognitive psychology."John Bricke, Professor of Philosophy Emeritus, University of Kansas
"I consider this book a treasured contribution to moral psychology. All of the chapters provide valuable insight into the relevance of Hume's moral philosophy to contemporary psychology and will be of interest to scholars and students interested in these discussions. The chapters are well-ordered in accordance with the questions they attempt to answer, and the style of writing is very clear. The introduction chapter by Reed and the conclusion chapter by Vitz are especially helpful for the reader who wants to make a straight to the point reading." - Saliha Bayır, Metapsychology Online Reviews
