The Supreme Principle of Jurisprudence was Analytical that of Ethics is Synthetical; XI. According to the preceding Principles, the Scheme of Duties of Virtue may be thus exhibited; XII. Preliminary Notions of the Susceptibility of the Mind for Notions of Duty generally; XIII. General Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals in the treatment of Pure Ethics; XIV.

Virtue necessarily presupposes Apathy (considered as Strength)If there exists on any subject a philosophy (that is, a system of rational knowledge based on concepts), then there must also be for this philosophy a system of pure rational concepts, independent of any condition of intuition, in other words, a metaphysic. It may be asked whether metaphysical elements are required also for every practical philosophy, which is the doctrine of duties, and therefore also for Ethics.EthicsEthics.Kant Immanuel48116Abbott Thomas KingsmillMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910136510503321The metaphysical elements of ethics3411635UNINA
