Excerpt from A History of English Utilitarianism Since, then. We have no adequate history of English Ethics, the attempt has been made in this volume to coverapartofthegroundbytracingtherbeand de velopment of Utilitarianism in England. No one of the writers considered - not even Hume or Mill - is individ ually of such importance for English Ethics as Bishop Butler; but, taken as a whole, Utilitarianism may fairly be regarded as England's most characteristic, if not most important, contribution to the development of ethical theory. This being the case, its history certainly deserves careful and somewhat extended treatment. The author hopes that. Whatever may be the shortcomings of the following chapters, he will not be accused of treating the subject either carelessly or in a partisan spirit The greater partofthematterofthefirst fivechapters basal mdyappeared as aserieaof articles in the Philo W Review (published from May. R895, to July.1897). Andfortheprivilegeofusinghere the matterofthosechapters, in a somewhat extended and otherwise modified form, the author is indebted to the editors and publishers of the Review. The remaining chapters of the book appear for the first time, except the first section of the final chapter, as indicated in the text. A paper based upon the manuscript of that part of the chapter was read before the American Psychological Association, at the Baltimore Meeting, December, 1900, and was afterwards printed in the Pbdoroplzr'cal Review.

Excerpt from Political Thought in England: The Utilitarians From Bentham to J. S. Mill But, this granted, it must be granted also that there is a point of View common to utilitarians and a common spirit that animates them, and that there are principles generally acknowledged. And so, it may be well to begin with an indication of the utilitarian standpoint, and with a sketch of the leading points Of general, if not absolutely universal, agreement. I.

Excerpt from The Beginnings of English Utilitarianism: A Thesis Accepted by the Faculty of Cornell University for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, May, 1894Perhaps no form of history is more interesting than that which has received the somewhat indefinite, because very general name, History of Philosophy. It is evident that we may understand the field of investigation thus indicated in a broader or in a narrower sense; and it is hardly necessary to remark that the accredited historians of Philosophy have actually differed more or less in their opinions as to the ground to be covered. Nobody would deny that the History of Ethics is a very essential part of the History of Philosophy, and, so far as ethical theories have formed an organic part of the general systems of ancient and modern philosophers, they may be said to have received due recognition at the hands of the historian. As the general tendency of English thought has been (or for a long time was) practical rather than speculative, it has happened, not unfortunately, that the progress of ethical theory in England has, on the whole, been less involved with the rise and decadence of definite systems of metaphysic than has been the case on the continent. Problems belonging distinctly to Ethics have for the most part been discussed on their own merits except, of course, where theological issues have been raised. If English writers have not always put forth the profoundest theories regarding the nature and meaning of morality, they have at least done inestimable service in the way of clear thinking and consistent reasoning.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

And if English philosophers have not always put forth the profoundest theories regarding the nature and meaning of morality, they have at least done inestimable service in the way of clear thinking and consistent reasoning. Now the result of this comparatively non-metaphysical character of English Ethics is that it has by no means taken its true place in the general History of Philosophy. Properly speaking, we have no history of English Ethics. Dr. Whewell, indeed, published in 1852 his Lectures on the History of Moral Philosophy in England; but this book was hardly calculated to serve more than a temporary purpose.

Why Getting and Being Happy Are So Awesome and Important John Stuart Mill's book Utilitarianism is a classic exposition and defence of utilitarianism in ethics. The essay first appeared as a series of three articles published in Fraser's Magazine in 1861; the articles were collected and reprinted as a single book in 1863. Mill's aim in the book is to explain what utilitarianism is, to show why it is the best theory of ethics, and to defend it against a wide range of criticisms and misunderstandings. Though heavily criticized both in Mill's lifetime and in the years since, Utilitarianism did a great deal to popularize utilitarian ethics and was ""the most influential philosophical articulation of a liberal humanistic morality that was produced in the nineteenth century."" Mill's Utilitarianism remains ""the most famous defense of the utilitarian view ever written"" and is still widely assigned in university ethics courses around the world. Get Your Copy Now.

Excerpt from Utilitarianism It is true that similar confusion and uncertainty, and in some cases similar discordance, exist respecting the first principles of all the sciences, not excepting that which is deemed the most certain of them, mathematics without much impairing, generally in deed without impairing at all, the trustworthiness of the conclusions of those sciences. An apparent ano maly, the explanation of which is, that the detailed doctrines of a science are not usually deduced from, nor depend for their evidence upon, what are called its first principles. Were it not so, there would be no science more precarious, or whose conclusions were more insufficiently made out, than algebra which derives none of its certainty from What are commonly taught to learners as its elements, since these, as laid down by some of its most eminent teachers, are as full of fictions as English law, and of mysteries as theology. The truths which are ultimately'accepted as the first principles of a science, are really the last results of metaphysical analysis, practised on the ele mentary notions with which the science is conversant; and their relation to the science is not that of founda tions to an edifice, but of roots to a tree, which may perform their office equally well though they be never dug down to and exposed to light. Win science the fiparticular truths precede the general t nhfibe expectedlm to be the! Case.
