Abstract

Fred Feldman is an important philosopher, who has made a substantial contribution to utilitarian moral philosophy. This collection of ten previously published essays plus a new introductory essay reveal the striking originality and unity of his views. Feldman's version of utilitarianism differs from traditional forms in that it evaluates behaviour by appeal to the values of accessible worlds. These worlds are in turn evaluated in terms of the amounts of pleasure they contain, but the conception of pleasure involved is a novel one and the formulation of hedonism improved. In Feldman's view pleasure is not a feeling but a propositional attitude. He also deals with problems of justice that affect standard forms of utilitarianism. The collection is ideally suited for courses on contemporary utilitarian theory.

Abstract

Vanaf de ontmoeting tussen de zaadcel en het eitje tot de fase van het lijk dat in staat van ontbinding verkeert, legt het lichaam een uniek verhaal vast. De odyssee van een lichaam waarin het hele leven zich samenbalt, legt slechts één verplichting op: het leven niet vergooien. Vandaar de categorische imperatieven: vorm geven aan je bestaan, bouwen aan je uitmuntendheid, zelf bepalen wat je lot is, je zijn bijslijpen, een stijl creëren.
