Synopsis

The Problem of Conduct: A Study in the Phenomenology of Ethics is a philosophical book written by Alfred Edward Taylor. The book explores the fundamental question of how we should live our lives and behave towards others. Taylor argues that ethics is not simply a matter of following rules or principles, but is instead a complex and dynamic phenomenon that requires careful analysis and reflection.The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Taylor explores the nature of ethics and the various approaches that have been taken to understanding it. He argues that ethics cannot be reduced to a set of rules or principles, but is instead a complex and dynamic phenomenon that requires careful analysis and reflection.In the second part, Taylor examines the concept of moral obligation and the various factors that influence our behavior. He argues that our actions are not simply determined by external factors such as laws or social norms, but are also influenced by our own personal values and beliefs.In the final part of the book, Taylor explores the concept of moral responsibility and the role it plays in our lives. He argues that we are not only responsible for our own actions, but also for the consequences of those actions and the impact they have on others.Overall, The Problem of Conduct is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of ethics and the challenges we face in living a moral life. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, or the human condition.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1901 Edition.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

Green Moral Philosophy Prize in the University ofO xford for the year 1899, the topic proposed for discussion to competitors being theE eciprocal Kelations between Ethics and Metaphysics. Except for the occasional removal or addition of a few lines of text or explanatory footnote and the correction of obvious inaccuracies, theE ssay appears now in the form in which it was submitted to the judges. In the numerous cases where I am indebted to previous writers I have, except where the allusion was manifest of itself, regularly endeavoured to indicate my obligation in a footnote; should any exception to this rule be discovered I trust the omission will be put down to unintentional oversight. There is one obligation, however, which seems to me to call for special acknowledgment here. To the writings of my friend, Mr. F. H. Bradley, especially to certain portions of his Appearance andR eality, I believe myself to owe, directly or indirectly, almost everything in this Essay that possesses any value. The frequent reference toM r. Bradley sworks in my footnotes are far from being an adequate expression of my debt. It may seem strange that a work originally written in connection with a prize instituted in commemoration of the late Professor T. H. Green should contain a whole chapter of polemic directed against certain of his doctrines.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
