Product Description This expanded edition of James Ellington's pre-eminent translation of Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals and Metaphysical Principles of Virtue includes his new translation of Kant's essay 'On a Supposed Right to Lie Because of Philanthropic Concerns', in which Kant replies to one of the standard objections to his moral theory, as presented in the main text of Grounding, that it requires us to tell the truth even in the face of harmful consequences. | ||
Reviews | ||
Anything with the GMM is worth buying Read the Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals, and then read it again. Repeat. While this collection doesn't have the greatest translation of the GMM it is a valuable compilation that also includes some of Kant's other works on Ethics and some commentary that can help you to better understand his ethical theories. Definitely worth the time for all. | ||
