Principia ethica
In questo libro, considerato atto di nascita dell'etica analitica, Moore intende confutare sia il "naturalismo" di Herbert Spencer e John Stuart Mill sia l'etica "metafisica" di Francis Bradley e John McTaggart denunciando la fallacia naturalistica o metafisica consistente nell'identificare "buono" con proprietà quali "risultato dell'evoluzione", "produttivo di felicità", "conforme all'essenza…

"Crois-tu qu'une ville serait bien gouvernée, si la loi ordonnait à chacun de tisser et de laver son vêtement, de tisser ses chaussures, sa burette à huile, son étrille et le tout le reste de même, sans mettre la main aux affaires d'autrui..." L'évocation de la priorité donnée aux affaires privées n'a rien d'étonnant dans le Charmide pour qui connaît l'entêtement de Platon à souligner l'état…

Γοργίας
There is a well-known saying that the whole of Western Philosophy is footnotes of Plato. This is because his writings have set the schema that philosophy can be said to have followed ever since. Following under the teachings of Socrates, Plato's works are among the world's greatest literature. In the Gorgias, as in nearly all the other dialogues of Plato, we are made aware that formal logic has…

Jenseits von Gut und Böse
Since the French Revolution the influence of woman in Europe has DECLINED in proportion as she has increased her rights and claims; and the "emancipation of woman," insofar as it is desired and demanded by women themselves (and not only by masculine shallow-pates), thus proves to be a remarkable symptom of the increased weakening and deadening of the most womanly instincts.

In his philosophical works he addressed such delicate issues as the role of Christ as mediator and the distinction, in human beings, between soul and matter. This volume presents new translations of…
