Education and Human Values: Reconciling Talent with an Ethics of Care
ISBN: 9781138938700 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Two of our greatest educational theorists, John Dewey and Nel Noddings, have been reluctant to admit that some students are simply more talented than others. This was no doubt due to their feeling that such an admission was inconsistent with democratic concern for everyone. But there really is such a thing as superior talent; and the present book explains how that admission is compatible with our ideals of caring (and democracy). Traditionalists confident that some disciplines are more important than others haven't worried that that way of putting things threatens to make those who are...

Moral Sentimentalism
ISBN: 9780199975709 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. There has recently been a good deal of interest in moral sentimentalism, but most of that interest has been exclusively either in metaethical questions about the meaning of moral terms or in normative issues about benevolence and/or caring and their place in morality. In Moral Sentimentalism Michael Slote attempts to deal with both sorts of issues and to do so, primarily, in terms of the notion or phenomenon of empathy. Hume sought to do something like this over two centuries ago, though he didn't have the term "empathy" and used "sympathy" instead; and in effect Slote is seeking to...

Uncle Valentine and Other Stories
ISBN: 9780803263178 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 183 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The seven stories in this volume were written during the ascending and perhaps most triumphant years of Willa Cather's career, the period during which she published nine books, including My Antonia, A Lost Lady, and Death Comes for the Archbishop. For the most part ironic in tone, these stories are, as Bernice Slote observes, bound by the geometrics of urban life--streets and offices, workers and firms, the business world of New York and Pittsburgh, the cities which by 1929 Willa Cather had known well for over thirty years." In her introduction, Slote discusses their biographical elements,...

Alexander's Bridge
ISBN: 9780803258631 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Willa Cather's first published novel, set in Boston, London, and Paris, is the story of a man unable to resolve the contradictions in his own nature. The central figures are Bartley Alexander, a world-famous engineer; his wife; Winifred, a Boston society matron; and his former love, Hilda Burgoyne, a London actress. Long considered an uncharacteristic production, in the light of recent scholarship Alexander's Bridge is seen to be closely linked to the body of Cather's work, thematically as well as in its use of myth and symbol. Bernice Slote's introduction considers the circumstances of its...

Selected Essays
ISBN: 9780195391435 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Selected Essays Michael Slote collects some of the most important papers of his career, articles that were both influential as well as those that remain relevant to philosophical debates today. The papers range over a number of important topics--not all of them within or having to do with ethics. Three of the papers have to do with ways in which one might fill out or expand upon traditional utilitarian views--while remaining within the utilitarian tradition. Two of the papers focus on free will, and another pair discuss rational choice and argue that traditional views about...

From Enlightenment to Receptivity: Rethinking Our Values
ISBN: 9780190649647 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This new book by Michael Slote argues that Western philosophy on the whole has overemphasized rational control and autonomy at the expense of the important countervailing value and virtue of receptivity. Recently the ideas of caring and empathy have received a great deal of philosophical and public attention, but both these notions rest on the deeper and broader value of receptivity, and in From Enlightenment to Receptivity, Slote seeks to show that we need to focus more on receptivity if we are to attain a more balanced sense and understanding of what is important to us....

Essays on the History of Ethics
ISBN: 9780195391558 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Essays on the History of Ethics Michael Slote collects his essays that deal with aspects of both ancient and modern ethical thought and seek to point out conceptual/normative comparisons and contrasts among different views. Arranged in chronological order of the philosopher under discussion, the relationship between ancient ethical theory and modern moral philosophy is a major theme of several of the papers and, in particular, Plato, Aristotle, Hume, Kant, and/or utilitarianism feature centrally in (most of) the discussions. One essay seeks to show that there are three main...

Morals from Motives
ISBN: 9780195138375 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Morals from Motives develops a virtue ethics inspired more by Hume and Hutcheson's moral sentimentalism than by recently-influential Aristotelianism. It argues that a reconfigured and expanded "morality of caring" can offer a general account of right and wrong action as well as social justice. Expanding the frontiers of ethics, it goes on to show how a motive-based "pure" virtue theory can also help us to understand the nature of human well-being and practical reason.

How Joyce Wrote Finnegans Wake: A Chapter-By-Chapter Genetic Guide
ISBN: 9780299218607 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this landmark study of James Joyce s "Finnegans Wake," Luca Crispi and Sam Slote have brought together fourteen other leading Joyce experts in a genetic guide to one of the twentieth century s most intriguing works of fiction. Each essay approaches "Finnegans Wake" through novel perspectives afforded by Joyce s preparatory manuscripts.
