Excerpt from Principia Ethica But from a clear insight into the nature of these two questions, there appears to me to follow a second most impor tant result: namely, what is the nature of the evidence, by which alone any ethical proposition can be proved or disproved, con firmed or rendered doubtful. Once we recognise the exact meaning of the two questions, I think it also becomes plain exactly what kind of reasons are relevant as arguments for or against any particular answer to them. It becomes plain that, for answers to the first question, no relevant evidence whatever can be adduced: from no other truth, except themselves alone, can it be inferred that they are either true or false. We can guard against error only by taking care, that, when we try to answer a question of this kind, we have before our minds that question only, and not some other or others; but that there is great danger of such errors of confusion I have tried to shew, and also what are the chief precautions by the use of which we may guard against them. As for the second question, it becomes equally plain, that any answer to it is capable of proof or dis proof - that, indeed, so many different considerations are relevant to its truth or falsehood, as to make the attainment of proba bility very difficult, and the attainment of certainty impossible. Nevertheless the kind of evidence, which is both necessary and alone relevant to such proof and disproof, is capable of exactdefinition. Such evidence must contain propositions of two kinds and of two kinds only: it must consist, in the first place.

Recognized as the definitive starting point for twentieth-century ethical theory, the text is reprinted with the previously unpublished preface Moore wrote for a planned, but never completed, second edition.

Excerpt from Principia Ethica It appears to me that in Ethics, as in all other philosophical studies, the difficulties and disagreements, of which its history is full, are mainly due to a very simple cause: namely to the attempt to answer questions, without first discovering precisely what question it is which you desire to answer. I do not know how far this source of error would be done away, if philosophers would try to discover what question they were asking, before they set about to answer it; for the work of analysis and distinction is often very difficult: we may often fail to make the necessary discovery, even though we make a definite attempt to do so. But I am inclined to think that in many cases a resolute attempt would be sufficient to ensure success; so that, if only this attempt were made, many of the most glaring difficulties and disagreements in philosophy would disappear. At all events, philosophers seem, in general, not to make the attempt; and, whether in consequence of this omission or not, they are constantly endeavouring to prove that 'Yes' or 'No' will answer questions, to which neither answer is correct, owing to the fact that what they have before their minds is not one question, but several, to some of which the true answer is 'No,' to others 'Yes.'

Excerpt from The Data of EthicsThe relations Of this work to works preceding it in the series, are such as to involve frequent reference. Contain ing, as it does, the outcome of principles set forth in each of them, I have found it impracticable to dispense with re-state ments Of those principles. Further, the presentation Of them in their relations to different ethical theories. Has made it needful, in every case, briefly to remind the reader what they are, and how they are derived. Hence an amount Of repetition which to some will probably appear tedious. I do not, however, much regret this almost unavoidable result; for only by varied iteration can alien conceptions be forced on reluctant minds.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
