Sinopsis

Function, Feeling, and Conduct: An Attempt to Find a Natural Basis for Ethical Law is a book written by Frederick Meakin in 1910. The book explores the concept of ethics and morality, and attempts to find a natural basis for ethical law. Meakin argues that ethics is not just a matter of personal preference or cultural norms, but is rooted in human nature and the way we interact with the world around us. He suggests that there are three key elements that form the basis of ethical behavior: function, feeling, and conduct. Function refers to the natural purpose or role of a particular thing or activity, feeling refers to the emotional response that we have to certain situations, and conduct refers to the actions that we take in response to these feelings. Meakin believes that by understanding these three elements, we can develop a more objective and universal understanding of ethics, and create a set of ethical laws that are grounded in nature rather than arbitrary cultural or religious beliefs. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of ethics and morality, and is still relevant today for anyone interested in understanding the foundations of ethical behavior.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Reseña del editor

Natur hat weder Kern Noch Schale, Alles ist sie mit einemmale. Goethe. Hvtwv xp rx6.T tiiv ixirpov iffrlv (L p Opco Tros. Protagoras. OUR thought of nature is a denning and qualifying thought. We speak of nature, it is true, as infinite. And the mind, exploring nature, rests at no given term in its progress, but finds in each phase of the universal revelation, in element, atom, world, or system of worlds, the movement of exhaustless energy, the shifting barriers of interminable being changing through illimitable time. But though the minds progress were endless it were a process nevertheless of endless delimitation. Thought is thought of a more or less particularised content. Whatever we see, whatever we think, is, in the very fact that we think or see, qualified and so far defined. Nature is thus finite as object of thought, infinite as transcending any given process of thought. It is the function of thought to define; to seek for the source, essence, office, or end of its object.
