By delving into the depths of everyday experience and divorcing the concept of value from traditional notions, it reveals how the realm of emotions can be seamlessly integrated with practical reasoning. This ambitious project was sparked by the conviction that the fragility of democracy and the widespread disinterest in the ideal principles that underpin it are largely attributable to the failure of modern philosophy to transcend the deeply entrenched skepticism surrounding the efficacy of practical reason.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book commences with a profound phenomenology of cynical consciousness, laying the foundation for the subsequent exploration. It then proceeds to survey a range of influential theories of value that emerged during the 20th century, offering a comprehensive examination of these philosophical frameworks. Finally, the book presents an outline of a bottom-up axiology, which revitalizes the anti-skeptical legacy of phenomenology while adhering to the ethical standards set by contemporary metaethics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough its innovative approach, this book offers a fresh perspective on the study of values, challenging conventional notions and paving the way for a more holistic understanding of human cognition and behavior. It is a testament to the power of philosophy to inspire and transform our understanding of the world, and a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the intricacies of value and its role in shaping our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 425g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030739850\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2021\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roberta De Monticelli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44515845046522,"sku":"9783030739850","price":83.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692375966407_book.jpg?v=1692885509","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/towards-a-phenomenological-axiology-discovering-what-matters-9783030739850","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
