Kant denies that Reason is intuitive, but demands that we must 'make' Reason intuitive, particularly in matters of morality. This book analyzes and explores this central paradox within Kantian thought, with contributions from a range of different perspectives, including political philosophy, ethics, religion, science and aesthetics.

Ce travail ambitionne inaugurer la thematisation d'une phenomenologie de la perception chez Heidegger. En prenant le contre-pied de bien des interpretations recentes concernant de questions cruciales de l'ontologie heideggerienne, notamment celles de l'articulation temporelle du present et de la distinction entre Zuhandenheit et Vorhandenheit, il defend la these inattendue que la temporalite de la perception sert de fil conducteur de l'ontologie heideggerienne du temps, dans la mesure ou elle impose la scission de la temporalite en modes authentiques et modes...

This book aims to elaborate a phenomenological description of moral experience as summarised in the view that moral experience functions as a starting-point to every theoretical description of morality and as a first principle on the basis of which we can draw criteria in order to evaluate moral actions and moral agents. Apart from relying upon phenomenological insights, Kontos clarifies his claim using a text-centered reading of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. In the end, Kontos finds that moral experience is founded on a phronetic perception capable of recognizing schemata that synthesize a...

This book elaborates a moral realism of phenomenological inspiration by introducing the idea that moral experience, primordially, constitutes a perceptual grasp of actions and of their solid traces in the world. The main thesis is that, before any reference to values or to criteria about good and evil-that is, before any reference to specific ethical outlooks-one should explain the very materiality of what necessarily constitutes the 'moral world'. These claims are substantiated by means of a text- centered interpretation of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics in dialogue with contemporary moral...

The articles in Phenomenology and the Metaphysics of Sight explore the uses and resonances of the paradigm of sight across the phenomenological tradition, with particular reference to the works of Husserl, Heidegger, and Merleau-Ponty. The axes of this investigation are the phenomenological readings of the notion of sight in ancient Greek philosophy, the ways in which phenomenology leads us beyond the primacy of sight, and the rivalry between the paradigm of sight and those of touch and hearing. The aim of this collection is to demonstrate that the use of the paradigm of sight pervades...

These essays provide the first full study of Aristotle's notion of evil, and shed light on its content, potential, and influence. They show that his theory is both attractive and elaborate, tracing its development in ancient and modern philosophy and reconstructing Aristotle's account of 'radical evil'.
