Book Synopsis

All of us take our moral bearings from a conception of the good, or a range of goods, that we consider most important. We are in this sense selves in moral space. Building on the work of the philosopher Charles Taylor, among others, David Parker...



Trade Review

David Parker demonstrates the fruitfulness of an ongoing conversation between literature and philosophy. Moral philosophers are paying increasing attention to literary texts for insights that some argue are not to be gained elsewhere. The Self in Moral Space shows that literary theorists may learn equally from philosophers.
