Description
Catherine Chalier explores the relationship between theoretical knowledge and moral philosophy in this thought-provoking analysis of Kant and Levinas. Chalier examines the positions of two influential moral philosophers, Kant and Levinas, to interrogate the foundations of moral philosophy and moral imperatives. Her work provides a systematic comparison of their views on key concepts such as free will, happiness, freedom, and evil. This book serves as a context for Chalier's own reflections on the question "What am I supposed to do?" and its continued importance in contemporary philosophy.
