Spheres of Reason - New Essays in the Philosophy of Normativity

Zusatztext This volume features leading figures in the field, who all have something new to say. For those interested in foundational questions about normativity, reason, and rationality, whether from the perspectives of ethics, epistemology, or philosophy of mind and action, this volume has much to offer. Informationen zum Autor Simon Robertson is currently a Research Fellow on the AHRC funded research project Nietzsche & Modern Moral Philosophy at the University of Southampton, UK. His main research interests lie at the intersection of metaethics, practical reason and normative ethics, as well as Nietzsche. Before his current appointment, Simon completed his PhD at the University of St Andrews (2005), writing his doctoral thesis on moral obligation and normative reasons, and then taught for two years as a lecturer in philosophy at the University of Leeds.

They make a timely and distinctive contribution to our understanding of how normative thought may or may not be unified across the spheres of actions, belief and feeling. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the nature of normativity and the bearing it has on human thought. Zusammenfassung Spheres of Reason comprises nine new articles on normativity.
