Drawing parallels between Kant’s and Sartre’s moral philosophies is neither new nor groundbreaking; numerous works have attempted to compare them, whether it be to point out similarities or prove they’re utterly dissimilar. There are many reasons why one might be tempted to study these two theories alongside each other; for instance, both state that morality is intrinsically linked to freedom and reject a preconceived idea of ethics – furthermore, Sartre was very concerned with Kant’s moral philosophy

Kant emphasizes the role of the moral philosopher to reveal the ambiguity about what it is moral to be crystal clear. Kant considers human as a rational being who should strive for moral maxims motivated by the good will. Furthermore, he argues that human don not need a moral philosopher to show which action is right, we already know what he calls the common human reason. Kant favours to endeavor to do the right actions over the good actions

Kant lived in an era where utilitarianism was becoming a widespread philosophical ideal, in which the group was valued greater than the individual. However, Kant argued that every individual has inherent value stating, “a human being … exists as an end in itself, not merely as a means for the discretionary use for this or that will, but must in all its actions… always be considered at the same time as an end” (Groundwork 4:428). This claim that every individual possesses inherent value presupposes

Sofia Hughes 817212455 Philosophy 330 Philosophy 330: Major Exam #1 A. According to Kant’s Good Will theory, “good will” means to act out of an overarching sense of duty and rightness. In order for an action to be borne of good will, it must be done solely because it is the right thing to do, and not because of the results that the action will bring. The only thing, Kant says, that is good without qualification is good will itself. In order for something to be good without qualification, it must

questioned whether Maxim truly loves “I”, as he is always talking about Rebecca. In Suspicion, it is very clear that Johnnie loves Lina. In Rebecca, the more powerful and important figure is a brunette. In Suspicion, Lina is a blonde and is the heroine. Rebecca is more powerful than “I” and Lina is the protagonist in Suspicion. There is a strong difference between the blondes portrayed in Rebecca and Suspicion. In Rebecca, “I” seems submissive and unable to control or measure up to Maxim. While in Suspicion

Around 8 p.m., almost bedtime, my dad would turn on the record player and surround sound blasting anything from Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” album to Vivaldi’s “Four Seasons.” Energized by these upbeat rhythms, my sister and I would listen, sing, and dance until exhaustion set in.

At the age of four I began piano lessons with a local instructor. What

Kant proposes a moral theory that falls under the domain of what is considered today as Deontological ethics, or more commonly, duty ethics. Essentially, Kant explains in his essay, ‘The Metaphysics of Moral’, an action is only considered moral if the motives or will behind one’s action, aligns one’s duty. This moral theory is different to that of Mill’s Utilitarianism because Utilitarianism focuses on whether or not an action’s consequences provide the best results overall. According to Kant, an
