dcterms.abstract | In his lectures of 1806 On the Way to the Blessed Life, Fichte draws a distinction between lower and higher morality. According to him, the paradigm of the lower morality is to be found in Kant’s ethics insofar as it promotes the uniformity of human conduct on the basis of a universal law. Even though Fichte recognizes that his own System of Ethics of 1798 contained some elements of this lower ethics, it is possible to show that the specific role each individual has to play in the moral world was already introduced in this work, which therefore anticipates the theme of the higher morality. | fr |
dcterms.abstract | Dans ses leçons de 1806 sur l’Initiation à la vie bienheureuse, Fichte établit une distinction entre la moralité supérieure et la moralité inférieure. Selon lui, l’éthique kantienne représente la forme paradigmatique de la moralité inférieure dans la mesure où elle commande l’uniformité de la conduite humaine en vertu de la loi morale. Or, bien que Fichte reconnaisse que son propre Système de l’éthique de 1798 comportait certains éléments de cette morale inférieure, il est possible de montrer que cet ouvrage évoquait déjà le rôle spécifique qu’est appelé à jouer chaque individu dans le monde. Ce qui constitue une anticipation du thème de la moralité supérieure. | fr |
