Description

Sabina Lovibond's Essays on Ethics and Feminism is a collection of her shorter writings that explore the intersection of philosophy and feminism. Drawing on realist and rationalist traditions in moral philosophy, these essays examine fundamental ethical questions, including the nature of value and the good life, moral requirements, and character-formation. The work engages with a range of philosophical ideas, from Platonic-Aristotelian to Kantian ethics, as well as the later philosophy of Wittgenstein. Lovibond also responds to the impact of Nietzschean and postmodernist thought on ethical inquiry. Written for those engaged in or interested in academic philosophy, these essays offer a clear and accessible exploration of key concepts. This collection will appeal to readers with an interest in feminist theory and activism, as well as those seeking to engage with fundamental questions of ethics and moral philosophy.
