- Authors
GRENBERG, JEANINE M.
- Abstract
The article presents the summary of the book "Kant and the Ethics of Humility: A Story of Dependence, Corruption and Virtue," by Jeanine Grenberg. Grenberg' book has featured an interpretation of Immanuel Kant on virtue of humility which is philosophically preferable. It was informed that part one explains the account of human nature on which Kantian virtue is built, part two considers the consideration and rejection of most contemporary accounts of humility from the Kantian perspective drawn in part one, part three compares human agency to the moral law and part four considers how humility supports one's fulfillment of duties to self and others.
