Description

The Moral Self explores how morality fundamentally shapes human experience and personal identity. Pauline Chazan challenges the conventional view that morality exists solely to restrain desire and curb self-interest, instead drawing on psychology, moral philosophy and literary interpretation to present a more nuanced understanding. By reconnecting ancient philosophical insights about personal good with moral goodness, Chazan argues that authentic self-care forms the foundation of genuine moral agency. The book opens with rigorous analysis of seminal thinkers including Hume, Rousseau and Hegel, examining their perspectives on morality and the self. Through this critical engagement, Chazan builds toward an original synthesis that reframes how we understand the relationship between self-interest and ethical life. This philosophically grounded exploration offers readers a pathway to reconceiving morality not as external constraint but as integral to human flourishing and authentic selfhood.

Key Features

The Moral Self by Routledge examines how morality enters into everyday human life through psychology, philosophy and literary analysis.

Chazan rebuts the traditional view that morality's primary function is limiting desire and controlling self-love through critical argument.

The book synthesises ancient philosophical wisdom with contemporary insights about the connection between personal good and moral goodness.

Critical examination of Hume, Rousseau and Hegel's theories forms the foundation of Chazan's constructive philosophical argument.

Routledge's Problems of Philosophy series positions this work within established academic discourse on ethics and human identity.
