The Spinozistic Ethics of Bertrand RussellAuthor :
Paperback
Published : Thursday 10 April 2014
Description
Bertrand Russells professional philosophical reputation rests mainly on his mathematical logic and theory of knowledge. This study, first published in 1985, however, considers Russells writings on ethics and metaethics and uncovers the conceptual unity in Russells normative ethic. It traces that unity to the influence of Spinozas central ethical concept, the `intellectual love of God, and then evaluates the ethic which is termed `impersonal self-enlargement.
This book provides a positive re-evaluation of Russells status in the major philosophical field of ethics and is welcomed by students of moral philosophy as well as those interested in Bertrand Russells works.
