  • Publisher: Vernon Press

The Philosophy of Forgiveness, Volume III: Forgiveness in World Religions is a collection of essays that explores the philosophy of forgiveness in different religions, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Confucianism. Each chapter scours one of these religions for insights on the concept of forgiveness, asking questions such as whether forgiveness is a virtue, whether it is conditional, whether God has standing to forgive, and whether it is permissible not to forgive some extreme wrongs. In some of the chapters, the concept of forgiveness in one religion is compared with that in another. In other chapters, the ideas of different traditions within a religion are compared and contrasted. Also, some chapters compare a religious concept to the views of a philosophical figure, such as Aristotle, Kant, or Derrida. The contributors to the volume come from various cultural and religious backgrounds and from different disciplines, such as philosophy, religious studies, and psychology. The collection is written for scholars, graduate students, and upper-division undergraduate students interested in forgiveness or comparative religious philosophy.

One of the fundamental aspects of the cultural landscape of the last century has been the revival of philosophical anthropology, in the form of a radical examination of the humanum: an examination that has attempted to meet the primary challenge of an era which, in an increasingly radical way, doubts the very possibility of a semantics of humanism. This book argues that MacIntyrean thought can provide an important contribution towards rethinking a new semantics of humanism, on the basis that MacIntyre's contribution stands up to dialogue with and rational competition from perspectives belonging to rival research traditions. The current volume emerged from the study conference organized in July 2021 by the Department of Letters, Philosophy, Communication Studies at the University of Bergamo, in collaboration with the International Society for MacIntyrean Enquiry.

Questo volume si presenta come una summa del pensiero di Alasdair MacIntyre. Il punto di partenza della riflessione etica è la situazione pratica del soggetto agente, nella quale si rivela la direzionalità verso un fine ultimo, un telos che si incarna parzialmente nell’esercizio delle virtù morali e razionali ed è comprensibile solo narrativamente. A un’analisi fenomenologica più approfondita l’esercizio delle virtù appare come attuazione della legge naturale. Tale esercizio tuttavia si rivela impossibile senza il possesso di un bene comune fondamentale, quello dell’amicizia, la quale fornisce all’agente quella distanza dai propri desideri necessaria per ordinare i beni nelle situazioni particolari. Il desiderio, in altri termini, non è un dato positivo immodificabile ma, in quanto proprium del soggetto, ne rivela l’intima natura appetitiva (e quindi teleologica) e razionale. Un proprium paradossale in quanto necessita dell’altro per potersi determinare in modo non reificante.

Quanto minore è la disponibilità di un orientamento condiviso, di criteri di giudizio comuni, tanto maggiore è la confusione morale, lo spazio per il conflitto e la coercizione. La modernità occidentale degli ultimi tre secoli ha coltivato sistematicamente forme di sviluppo latrici di disorientamento radicale, e lo ha fatto passare per “condizione umana”. Ma quel processo che Nietzsche ha catturato con le espressioni “nichilismo” e “morte di Dio” ha caratteri storicamente unici e rappresenta un peculiare vicolo cieco della storia. Il presente lavoro rappresenta un tentativo di fondazione ontologica, epistemica e, su queste basi, etica che vuole aiutare a sottrarsi alla propri...

Siamo esseri prevalentemente razionali che agiscono in base a principi e creano un ordine assiologico all’interno di un mondo di per sé indifferente al valore? O siamo esseri anzitutto emotivi che rispondono a una realtà già carica di valori da scoprire affinando la sensibilità assiologica di cui siamo strutturalmente dotati? Qual è il compito dell’etica filosofica? Individuare e giustificare norme e principi che guidino l’azione e la valutazione o ricostruire i diversi accessi emotivo-intuitivi che gli individui, le epoche e le diverse civiltà hanno ai valori, descrivendo i diversi “stili morali” esistenti? I saggi raccolti in questo libro intendono fare emergere tali domande chiamando in causa autori di epoche e tradizioni filosofiche diverse – Kant e il neokantismo, Scheler e la fenomenologia, il non-naturalismo etico e l’attuale dibattito metaetico – con l’obiettivo di mettere a fuoco l’idea dell’etica filosofica come parte dell’impresa teoretico-conoscitiva.
