An Ethical Treatise On The Passions

""An Ethical Treatise On The Passions: Founded On The Principles Investigated In The Philosophical Treatise"" is a book written by Thomas Cogan and published in 1807. The book is an exploration of the human passions and their relation to ethics. Cogan delves into the nature of emotions such as love, hate, fear, and anger, and examines how they can be harnessed for moral purposes. He argues that the passions are not inherently good or bad, but rather can be used for either moral or immoral ends depending on how they are directed. Cogan draws on the principles of philosophy to provide a framework for understanding the passions and their ethical implications. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of emotion and morality, and remains relevant to contemporary discussions of ethics and human psychology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
