Abstract

The Analysis of Morals
Hazlitt, Henry | April 9, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

The article discusses books and authors. Writer C.D. Broad's "Five Types of Ethical Theory," is a critical examination of the ethical theories of philosophers Baruch Spinoza, David Hume, and Immanuel Kant etc. Those of us who do not take a professional view of the subject are likely to approach a volume of this sort with a certain amiable skepticism. We are likely to reflect on the very negligible influence that any of the five philosophers discussed, or even all the metaphysical moralists put together, have had on the actual working moral code of the majority of men.
