More about the book
Arguing against the necessity of ethical theories, the author emphasizes that moral judgments should be based on detailed circumstances rather than predefined rules. By analyzing literary texts featuring moral theorists as characters, the book weaves together philosophical arguments with literary critique. Works discussed include classics from Plato to Shakespeare, illustrating the relevance of these themes across various fields like ethics, theology, law, politics, and education. This approach advocates for the importance of the humanities in moral discourse.
