Alan Donagan; Anthony N. Perovich

Opis

This book contains the collected papers of Alan Donagan on topics in the philosophy of religion. Donagan was respected as a leading figure in American moral philosophy. His untimely death in 1991 prevented him from collecting his philosophical reflections on religion, particularly Christianity, and its relation to ethics and other concerns. This collection, therefore, constitutes the fullest expression of Donagan's thought on Christianity and ethics, in which it is possible to discern the outlines of a coherent, overarching theory. Editor Anthony Perovich has supplied a useful introduction, which brings Donagan's work into focus and brings out the unifying themes in the essays.

Recenzje

Anthony Perovich has edited this collection of essays and lectures... It is lovingly done, and we get a touching sense of the disciple's gratitude to his master; also a strong sense that what we have here is work in progress, so that Donagan's ideas cry out to be taken on and developed by others.
