With a new foreword by Jonathan Lear 'Remarkably lively and enjoyable...It is a very rich book, containing excellent descriptions of a variety of moral theories, and innumerable and often witty observations on topics encountered on the way.' - Times Literary Supplement Bernard Williams was one of the greatest philosophers of his generation. Ethics and the Limits of Philosophy is not only widely acknowledged to be his most important book, but also hailed a contemporary classic of moral philosophy. Drawing on the ideas of the Greek philosophers, Williams reorients ethics away from a preoccupation with universal moral theories towards 'truth, truthfulness and the meaning of an individual life'. He explores and reflects upon the most difficult problems in contemporary philosophy and identifies new ideas about central issues such as relativism, objectivity and the possibility of ethical knowledge. This edition also includes a commentary on the text by A.W.Moore. At the time of his death in 2003, Bernard Williams was hailed by the Times as 'the outstanding moral philosopher of his age.' He taught at the Universities of Cambridge, Berkeley and Oxford and is the author of many influential books, including Morality; Descartes: The Project of Pure Enquiry (available from Routledge) and Truth and Truthfulness.

威廉斯認為,倫理學的源頭有兩支,都來源於蘇格拉底的“應該過怎樣的生活”? 一支關注良好生活的特質,一支關注倫理反思。 前一支給“應該過的生活”添加瞭一個叫作“好”的要素,實際上縮減瞭生活的可能性,因為人可以要求去過一種不那麼典型的“好”生活。比如,晚上加班是...
評分 評分This book is principally about how things are in moral philosophy. A clear structure.
評分威廉姆斯在這本書裏以蘇格拉底之問為開端,即“一個人應該如何度過自己的一生”,以此探尋倫理學的最終關切。蘇格拉底之問希望為「每一個人」提供理由去發現「倫理生活」是最值得過的生活,但是在第一章中這個問題實際上有著多種解法,可以是美學,甚至包括資本主義的擴張理念...
評分【按語:這本書有的細節對我而言有難度。本書被認為是Williams最重要的著作;也確實是一種非同凡響的倫理學作品,倡導瞭一種多元論的、溫和相對主義的倫理觀點:理論總是對生活尤其是倫理生活的一種扭麯。而這種論點是以對倫理思想史的一個恢宏的迴憶展現齣來的,舉重若輕的同...

評分一種基於個人反思的概念思辨寫作法,然而,我不認為思辨是做倫理學的閤適的方法,概念裏打轉也能很有趣,但我們需要做更多的事情,幫助我們去理解世界(見Nagel的Mortal Questions序言),而不是理解/區分各種內涵精緻的概念
評分在高中畢業以前就想清楚瞭“該如何生活”且時至今日一直如此生活著,並對“老百姓該如何生活”毫無興趣的人錶示,跟Williams的問題域毫無交集。又,現實道德經驗的豐富性和復雜性是坐坐armchair讀讀幾本哲學書,翻翻Aristotle,Kant就能conceive到的嗎?Iphone6都快齣來瞭為何小清新們還孜孜不倦相信蘇老大的話,就像信孔老二的箴言一樣?哪位實驗哲學大俠來搞個調查,沒讀過哲學書的成年人跟讀過一本/五本/十本/二十本倫理學名著的小清新們的道德直覺有何差彆,這種差彆又在何種程度上影響瞭各自的生活方式,道德實踐,etc.
評分B.Williams的英語寫作很難,但非常有意思,很有風格。那個暑假掉瞭不少頭發也是拜他所賜。
