Manières d’être humain. Une autre philosophie morale
No full textPhilosophical ethics has been dominated for a long time by views (such as Utilitarianism and Kantianism) which aim at establishing normative criteria in isolation from concrete situations to which they are supposed to be applied. This book reverses the perspective and shifts the attention to the circumstances which make individual and social problems humanly and morally salient.
The task of ethics consists in deepening and reorganizing the ways of seeing, feeling, responding to the world which define the conceptual dimensions of our lives. The author elaborates on a tradition which begins with Wittgenstein and converses with Stanley Cavell, Elisabeth Anscombe, Iris Murdoch and Cora Diamond. It wishes to forge new philosophical instruments which allow to treat in a new way the issues of birth, death, sexuality and the conceptions of the human.Les conceptions philosophiques qui ont longtemps dominé l’éthique contemporaine (comme par exemple l’utilitarisme et le kantisme) visent à établir les critères normatifs en les isolant des situations concrètes auxquelles ils devaient être appliqués. Ce livre renverse une telle perspective et met au centre de sa réflexion les circonstances qui rendent humainement et moralement significatifs les problèmes dont se soucient les individus et les sociétés.
La tâche de l’éthique consiste alors en l’approfondissement et la réorganisation des manières de voir, de sentir, de réagir au monde qui définissent les dimensions conceptuelles de nos vies. Piergiorgio Donatelli réélabore une tradition qui part de Wittgenstein et dialogue avec des auteurs tels que Stanley Cavell, Elizabeth Anscombe, Iris Murdoch et Cora Diamond, en faisant émerger des nouveaux outils philosophiques qui permettent de traiter de façon nouvelle les questions concernant, par exemple, la naissance, la mort, la sexualité et les conceptions de l’humain

Murdoch e la permanenza della realtà
No full textL'articolo si concentra sull'uso della nozione di sfondo (background) nella filosofia di Iris Murdoch. Esso segnala il carattere duro e inesauribile della realtà, necessario per conferire significato alle attività umane. In secondo luogo, il carattere duro della realtà è oggetto di un lavoro morale di comprensione e di approfondimento al punto che tale durezza si trasforma in un fascio di relazioni che stabiliamo tra noi e gli aspetti di cui abbiamo guadagnato una comprensione morale. L'autore insiste sulla necessità di entrambe le prospettive, in particolare in relazione all'etica della vita umana, animale e ambientale.Iris Murdoch employs the notion of ‘background’, and notions related to it, in order to pursue various philosophic projects. The author explores Murdoch’s use of the notion in order to focus on two interconnected questions. On the one hand, the notion signals the hardness and inexhaustible character of reality, as the needed background in order to make sense of our lives in various ways. On the other, the hardness of reality is the object of a moral work of apprehension and deepening to the point at which its distinctive character dissolves into the family of connections we have gained for ourselves. The author elaborates on the necessity of both sides of the concept, especially in connection to the notion of life: human, animal, and environmental
