This collection of essays by leading international philosophers
considers central themes in the ethics of Danish philosopher Knud
Ejler Løgstrup (1905–1981). Løgstrup was a Lutheran theologian
much influenced by phenomenology and by strong currents in Danish
culture, to which he himself made important contributions. The
essays in What Is Ethically Demanded? K. E. Løgstrup's Philosophy
of Moral Life are divided into four sections. The first section
deals predominantly with Løgstrup's relation to Kant and, through
Kant, the system of morality in general. The second section focuses
on how Løgstrup stands in connection with Kierkegaard, Heidegger,
and Levinas. The third section considers issues in the development
of Løgstrup's ethics and how it relates to other aspects of his
thought. The final section covers certain central themes in
Løgstrup's position, particularly his claims about trust and the
unfulfillability of the ethical demand. The volume includes a
previously untranslated early essay by Løgstrup, "The Anthropology
of Kant’s Ethics," which defines some of his basic ethical ideas
in opposition to Kant’s. The book will appeal to philosophers and
theologians with an interest in ethics and the history of
philosophy. Contributors: K. E. Løgstrup, Svend Andersen, David
Bugge, Svein Aage Christoffersen, Stephen Darwall, Peter Dews, Paul
Faulkner, Hans Fink, Arne Grøn, Alasdair MacIntyre, Wayne Martin,
Kees van Kooten Niekerk, George Pattison, Robert Stern, and Patrick
Stokes.
