Values of Love and Ethical Reflection
α’αααΈααααα βα’αα‘α·α ααααΌαα·αααα
This volume helps the reader both to investigate the themes of value and love and to gauge their role in Husserlβs reflections on related topics: his analysis of philosophy, the sciences as vocational tasks, the emotions and the community of love, as well as his personalistic reformulation of the categorical imperative. The texts gathered, edited, and translated in this volume have far-reaching implications, ranging from axiology and individual and social ethics to the philosophy of emotions, action theory, and the philosophy of science.
