Franz Brentano developed an original theory of intrinsic value
which he attempted to base on his philosophical psychology.
Roderick Chisholm presents here a critical exposition of this
theory and its place in Brentano's general philosophical system. He
gives a detailed account of Brentano's ontology, showing how
Brentano tried to secure objectivity for ethics not through a
theory of practical reason, but through his theory of the
intentional objects of emotions and desires. Professor Chisholm
goes on to develop certain suggestions about intrinsic value made
by Brentano and his students, and discusses their relevance to
theodicy and the problem of evil. Brentano, as the teacher of
Husserl, Meinong, Twardowski, and others, stands at the origin of
the phenomenological tradition and of the Polish school of
philosophy that developed after World War I. He has also had
considerable influence on Anglo-American philosophy. This book will
interest those concerned with the origins of phenomenological value
theory and more generally with the connections between ethics and
philosophical psychology.
