Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
T. H. Green's Prolegomena to Ethics (1883) is a classic of modern philosophy. It begins with Green's idealist attack on empiricist metaphysics and epistemology and develops a perfectionist ethical theory that aims to bring together the best elements in the ancient and modern traditions, and that provides the moral foundations for Green's own distinctive brand of liberalism. David Brink's new edition will restore this great work to prominence, after two decades in which it has been hard to obtain. The present edition uses the text of the fifth edition, accompanied by a new introductory essay, bibliographical essay, and index. Translations are provided for Green's quotations from other languages. Of particular importance is the editor's extended introductory essay, which situates the Prolegomena in its intellectual context, sympathetically but critically engages its main themes, and explains Green's enduring significance for the history of philosophy and contemporary ethical theory. Students and scholars of the history of ethics, ethical theory, political philosophy, and nineteenth century philosophy will find this new edition an invaluable resource.

Recenzii
David Brink's self-styled 'edition' of T. H. Green's classic text of Victorian moral philosophy ... is very welcome indeed ... Brink's 'edition' makes Green's interesting criticisms of classical utilitarianism accessible to a new generation of readers and helps to fill a much needed gap in the history of English-speaking moral philosophy. The volume is attractively produced by Oxford University Press, and will help to promote interest in Green's neglected work.
