Descriere

This book offers an original intersection of concepts from Immanuel Kant‘s moral command ethics and Sören Kierkegaards existential ethics. The former moral law is based on theoretical ground while the latter‘s quest for selfhood views it as the very act of living. This work questions whether these approaches to morality are mutually exclusionary and advocates the traversing of the ethical parallax to allow for intellectual openness and an empathetic perception of theother.
