商品簡介
Selected from an October 2007 symposium in Munich, 15 papers cover research methods, ethical theory, China, Greece and Rome, and comparisons. Contributors identified only by name consider such topics as the methodology of comparative ethics, two kinds of moral relativism, harmony as a contested metaphor and conceptions of rightness in early Confucian ethics, light shed and shadows cast on virtue ethics in ancient China, Plato's Socrates and the Epicurean tradition, Aristotle on friendship as the paradigmatic form of relationship, the Greeks and Chinese on the emotions and the problem of cross-cultural universals and cultural relativism, and complexity and simplicity in Aristotle and early Daoist thought.
