Bøger af Timothy M. Costelloe

The prominence of the imagination in David Hume's philosophy has been recognised by generations of readers. In this rich study, Timothy Costelloe gives us the most complete picture yet of Hume's view of imagination and its place in his philosophy.

Aims to examine the extent and significance of the connection between Hume's aesthetics and his moral philosophy; and to consider how, in light of the connection, his moral philosophy answers central questions in ethics. This book concludes by showing how Hume's view of philosophy affects the scope of any normative ethics.
