Compassion and Pity.This book provides a comprehensive study of major issues of moral psychology throughout history, from ancient to early modern philosophy. The volume focuses primarily on the Western history of philosophy but also deals with Jewish and Islamic heritage. The Introduction chapter lays out the historical background in broad strokes, giving the reader the “lay of the land” when it comes to the terms of analysis and their overall development within the Western tradition of moral psychology. The book continues by studying and analyzing moral anthropology, moral agency and motivation, virtues and social and political commitments, taking a thematic approach in a specific time-period and focus on the most unique and/or fruitful discussions about a particular historically situated discussion when it comes to thinking about questions and/or ‘problems’ in the field of moral psychology. Aimed at both a layman and academic audience, this book is of great interest to a broad readership.The New Synthese Historical Library, Texts and Studies in the History of Philosophy,2352-2585 ;79PhilosophyHistoryEthicsPhilosophy, MedievalIslamStudy and teachingHistory of PhilosophyMoral Philosophy and Applied EthicsMedieval PhilosophyIslamic StudiesPhilosophyHistory.Ethics.Philosophy, Medieval.IslamStudy and teaching.History of Philosophy.Moral Philosophy and Applied Ethics.Medieval Philosophy.Islamic Studies.109Mäkinen Virpi281212Knuuttila Simo540410MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910896524203321Moral Psychology in History: From the Ancient to Early Modern Period4431294UNINA
