The Foundations of Ethics: From Kant’s Law to Nietzsche’s Will - Ferenc Wolf
CHF 41,95 inkl. MwSt
How do universal moral laws and the will to power coexist in the tapestry of ethical thought? In The Foundations of Ethics, Ferenc Wolf embarks on a profound philosophical journey, bridging the rational rigor of Immanuel Kant's categorical imperative with Friedrich Nietzsche's groundbreaking critique of morality as a construct of power and history.This compelling exploration juxtaposes Kant's vision of universal morality, grounded in reason and autonomy, against Nietzsche's provocative genealogical analysis of values, shaped by cultural forces and the dynamics of dominance. By delving into these two towering figures of Western philosophy, Wolf unpacks the tension between duty and desire, reason and instinct, order and chaos-revealing their shared insights and stark divergences.Accessible yet intellectually rich, this book invites readers to reconsider the origins and evolution of moral frameworks, from Kant's rational idealism to Nietzsche's call for a revaluation of all values. Whether you are a seasoned philosopher or a curious seeker of ethical understanding, The Foundations of Ethics challenges you to question, critique, and ultimately reimagine the principles that guide human action and thought.
