Ethics and the Complexities of Experience

We will be reading texts from a diverse group of authors who, in spite of their many differences, share one important point in common: their approaches to ethics are firmly rooted in – indeed, often emanate from – a careful consideration of the complexities of real life experience. In so doing, we will explore ways of doing moral philosophy that stand out for their attentiveness to the subtle, manifold character of what we may call the “lived in”.
