Evidenz des Ethischen

Beschreibung

Johann-Christian Põder explains the basic elements of Løgstrup's ethical thinking and shows that Løgstrup assumes that there is evidence of the ethical which constitutes humankind's relationship to himself and the world. For him, the ethical is part of the ethical-ontological structure of human beings as homo moralis.
The ethics of Knud E. Løgstrup (1905-1981), the Danish theologian and philosopher, are among the most important ethical approaches of the 20th century. In the manner of H. Jonas and E. Lévinas, his universalistic justification of ethics is embedded in the horizon of the phenomenology of Husserl and Heidegger. Johann-Christian Põder explains the basic elements of Løgstrup's ethical thinking and shows that Løgstrup assumes that there is evidence of the ethical which constitutes humankind's relationship to himself and the world. For him, the ethical is part of the ethical-ontological structure of human beings as homo moralis. From a theological perspective, this is the imperative and indicative presence of the creature-like destiny of human beings which is God's work. Løgstrup's ethics are an impressive and provocative invitation to take the irreducible alienness of the ethical experience seriously.
