Synopsis

Progressive Morality: An Essay in Ethics by Thomas Fowler is a philosophical work that explores the concept of morality and its evolution over time. The author argues that morality is not fixed and unchanging, but rather is a dynamic and evolving system that adapts to changing social and cultural conditions. Fowler traces the history of morality from its origins in primitive societies to its current state in modern civilization. He examines the role of religion, philosophy, and science in shaping moral values, and discusses the impact of social and political movements on the development of morality. Through a series of thought-provoking arguments and examples, Fowler challenges traditional views of morality and proposes a new, more progressive approach to ethical thinking. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of ethics, as well as those seeking a fresh perspective on contemporary moral issues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Présentation de l'éditeur

For this purpose it has been necessary to study brevity and avoid controversy. Hence, I have made few references to other authors, and I have almost altogether dispensed with foot-notes. But, though I have attempted to state rather than to defend my views, I believe that they are, in the main, those which, making exception for a few back eddies in the stream of modern thought, are winning their way to general acceptance among the more instructed and reflective men of our day. It is necessary that I should state that this Essay is independent of a much larger work, entitled the Principles of Morals, on which I was, some years ago, engaged with my predecessor, the late Professor Wilson.
