  • Reflections on Philosophy and Religion

    Alan Donagan, Anthony N PerovichBOOKReflections on philosophy and…1999

    This book contains the collected papers of Alan Donagan on topics in the philosophy of religion. Donagan was respected as a leading figure in American moral philosophy. His untimely death in 1991 prevented him from collecting his philosophical reflections on religion, particularly Christianity, and its relation to ethics and other concerns. This collection, therefore, constitutes the fullest expression of Donagan’s thought on Christianity and eth…

  • Can Anybody In A Post-Christian Culture Rationally Believe The Nicene Creed?

    Alan Donagan, Anthony N PerovichCHAPTERReflections on philosophy and…1999

    The phrase ‘‘the Christian religion’’ stands for so many things that the question whether educated people in the western world today can rationally believe it is too vague to be worth answering. It is otherwise with the question whether they can rationally believe the Nicene creed. Many who call themselves Christians would reject it. Yet it is part of the liturgy of many Christian bodies, in particular of the largest of all, the Roman Catholic Ch…

  • On History and Philosophers of History

    Alan Donagan, William H DrayARTICLEHistory and Theory1991

    This book deals with theoretical problems that arise at points of contact between the concerns of philosophers and historians about the practice of historiography. In bringing together these critical studies on diverse but related themes, the book offers insight into the aims and methods of those working in theory of historiography in recent years, especially in English-speaking countries

    Bruce Aune, Alan DonaganARTICLEPhilosophy and Phenomenological…1990Citada por: 2

    This book, first published in 1987, investigates what distinguishes the part of human behaviour that is action (praxis) from the part that is not. The distinction was clearly drawn by Socrates, and developed by Aristotle and the medievals, but key elements of their work became obscured in modern philosophy, and were not fully recovered when, under Wittgenstein’s influence, the theory of action was revived in analytical philosophy. This study aims…

  • Thomas Aquinas on human action

    Open AccessAlan DonaganCHAPTERThe Cambridge history of later…1982

    At least two distinct purposes may be discerned in Aquinas' various writings on human action. One is to complete and correct Aristotle's treatment of it in the Nicomachean Ethics, to which he of course pays close and respectful attention. A second springs from his primary commitment to theology. Reflecting on what is said in the Scriptures and the writings of the Fathers about such topics as the fall of Adam, sin, conversion, and the operation of…

  • The Theory of Morality

  • The Theory of Morality

    Alan DonaganBOOKTheory of Morality1977

    Let us . . . nominate this the most important theoretical work on ethical or moral theory since John Rawls's Theory of Justice. If you have philosophical inclinations and want a good workout, this conscientious scrutiny of moral assumptions and expressions will be most rewarding. Donagan explores ways of acting in the Hebrew-Christian context, examines them in the light of natural law and rational theories, and proposes that formal patterns for c…
