    af Marianne Olsen, Andreas Simonsen & Per Brask
    149,95 - 342,95 kr.

    Antologi med tekster fra Andreas Simonsens forfatterskabKan to modsatrettede etiske holdninger være sande på samme tid? Er de i virkeligheden nødvendige for hinanden, for at balancere den etiske handling? Det mente Andreas Simonsen, som gav fænomenet navnet "Diskonjuktion".For at finde frem til en etisk handling, som lader sig realisere, er dialogen mellem to tilsyneladende modsatrettede etiske hensyn altid en nødvendighed.Simonsens tænkning er inspireret af Sokrates, Løgstrup og Bohr, og han trækker desuden på kristen og jødisk etik.Antologien udgives i forbindelse med 100-året for Andreas Simonsens fødsel.

  • - on faith and ethics
    af Andreas Simonsen
    127,95 kr.

    Andreas Simonsen (1923-1991) was a classicist and a teacher of ethics. He preferred not to be called a philosopher because he thought that a philosopher was someone who was too remote from reality and everyday life. Simonsen’s quest was to discover a realizable ethics; a balance between ethical ideals and a recognition of the complex conditions we inhabit.Simonsen’s writings consist of exploratory dialogues between different ethical principles. He engages with and draws on Socrates, Løgstrup, and Niels Bohr, among others, as well as Jewish and Christian ethics. Simonsen’s foundational ethical concept is “disconjunction.” This concept refers to two seemingly opposed ethical principles balancing one another. An ethical act always contains two contrary considerations. This anthology is being published in connection with the centenary of Andreas Simonsen’s birth and offers insight into Simonsen’s ethical thinking and dialogical approach.

    Is there a solid foundation for the ethical concept of the good? Danish-Jewish thinker Andreas Simonsen explores this "ancient all-important question initially debated by the Sophists, Socrates and Plato" using an ancient technique - the dialogue form. Three separate conversations, three different interlocutors, three different worldviews: skeptical, rationalist and existentialist. This eclectic, thought-provoking work takes the reader on a fascinating journey through Western philosophy and scientific theory - to the author's unique adaptation of Niels Bohr's theory of "complementarity" to ethics.

  • - An Exploration of Fundamental Problems in Ethics
    af Andreas Simonsen & Per K Brask
    187,95 kr.

    An important 20th century work on ethics. Now available in English for the first time. Danish thinker Andreas Simonsen explores what he considers the three most fundamental problems in ethics: free will versus determinism, happiness versus duty, and humanism versus humility. "These problems have been pondered throughout history, often with great perspicacity and wit. However, every generation must take its own position on them so that new experiences are included in our understanding of life, not only directly but also indirectly through changing interpretations and practices of past wisdom." Simonsen attempts to untangle the inevitable contradictions "attached to everything human and conditioned by a basic paradoxical duality in our essence and existence. ... "We must have a paradoxical understanding of humans as both free and conditioned; a paradoxical view of ethics as both duty and happiness; a paradoxical understanding of God as both immanent and transcendent."

    What does Judaism say about free will, suffering, good and evil, sin, responsibility, righteousness? Danish philosopher Andreas Simonsen explains where Judaism stands on these and other complex moral issues, puts them into historical perspective and discusses their relevance to our lives today, while tackling the contradictions, confusions and paradoxes inherent in Judaism's fundamental tenets. He also compares Judaism's teachings to those of Christianity, humanism and selected Western philosophers, both classical and modern. Christians and Jews, believers and non-believers, alike, will find Simonsen's insights fascinating and enlightening. This important 20th-century religious-philosophical work is now available in English for the first time, translated from the Danish by Per K. Brask.
