論康德的道德主體觀, Laiwing Au Sep 2008

論康德的道德主體觀, Laiwing Au

Lingnan Theses and Dissertations (MPhil & PhD)

康德的主體理論不但為西方的理性主義開出了一個新的領域,在近代中國儒學 的研究中更被視為一個重要的樞紐。康德的主體理論除了為日後相關的討論提 供了穩固的框架外,他對一些重要概念──諸如理性、道德的必然性等──的 反省和釐清,更為當世的相關討論帶來了突破性的發展和影響。當然,其道德 主體理論也有不少困難。本文分成四章,基於上述各點展開討論。

第一章為前言,旨在闡明康德對其它道德理論的抨擊,以顯康德對道德的看法 之獨特處。

第二章對康德的道德主體理論作系統性的闡釋。由康德的最高道德原則出發, 闡明當中的關鍵概念,例如:道德的無條件性與普遍性,從而帶出主體所具備 的實踐理性及自律性。康德於捍衛道德的普遍性及肯定人之主體性方面,成就 無容置疑。但另一方面,在其系統中,道德法則只能呈現為命令,亦不允許情 感的滲雜。康德的這種主體觀並非沒有困難。

本文的第三章則指出康德道德理論對主體的一些前設,並透過比較康德與王陽 明的道德理論,揭示康德的道德主體觀並非在所有文化下都為人接受。最後, 本章亦希望帶出道德主體觀與道德境界的密切關係,以點出不同道德主體觀的 意義。全文最後以第四章作結。

The Place Of Theology In A World Come Of Age: A Comparative Analysis Of The Writings Of Dietrich Bonhoeffer And Paul Ramsey., Dave Buckner

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

As the twentieth century dawned in the western world, there were voices both inside and out of the Christian Church that began to question religion's central place in man's daily life. Had humanity finally progressed to the point where religion was no longer necessary? Had we at long last developed the characteristics and perspectives that religion had attempted to engrain within us? Or were the rules and regulations of religion still needed to ensure the continued advancement of civilization? This is a study of two opposing voices in that debate: theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and ethicist Paul Ramsey. What follows is …


A Comparative Study Of The Ethics Of Christine M. Korsgaard And Jean-Paul Sartre, Michael Christopher Zander Jul 2008

A Comparative Study Of The Ethics Of Christine M. Korsgaard And Jean-Paul Sartre, Michael Christopher Zander

Philosophy Theses

Christine M. Korsgaard and Jean-Paul Sartre both locate the source of ethical normativity in human reflective consciousness. Korsgaard’s claims that human beings are essentially rational, and that our rational nature is an adequate source of ethical content. Sartre argues that a conception of human nature this minimal is insufficient to provide ethical content, and that we must look to our particular projects and identities to provide moral content. I will argue that Sartre is correct that a view of human nature this minimal is inadequate to generate moral content, but that because Sartre is unable to demonstrate how norms based …
