Un’esile significanza: Eugenio Lecaldano sul senso della vita
Full text linkIn this paper I examine Eugenio Lecaldano’s way of tackling the issue of the meaning of life. I highlight the dependence of his individualistic approach on the specific character of the person who inquires into the meaning of life. I also sketch a weaker way of understanding the meaning of life as an attempt to provide reasons which are valid from the standpoint of the present, and which will make us continue living

No full textIn this paper I argue that, contrary to what might appear at a first glance, political concerns have systematically characterized Williams’ ethical reflection along the full course of its development. I proceed by taking into account Williams’ specific notion of political realism in the light of the critiques he moves against the lack of historical awareness affecting various forms of Liberal thought. I then examine Williams’ position regarding ethical and political relativism in relation to the Communitarian perspective. I therefore try to show that Williams’ ethical and political position can be made sense of as a distinctive and coherent form of Humanism in which human beings conceived as specific individuals are given the central place
