Omschrijving

In "Creed and Deed: A Series of Discourses," Felix Adler articulates a compelling exploration of morality and ethics grounded in a rational, humanistic framework. Written during a period when traditional religious beliefs were increasingly questioned, Adler employs a rich literary style that combines philosophical rigor with a poetic touch. The discourses challenge the dichotomy of belief and action, advocating for a morality based on human experience rather than dogma, and situating his arguments within the broader context of late 19th-century ethical thought and the burgeoning American humanist movement. Felix Adler, a distinguished thinker and the founder of the Ethical Culture movement, was deeply influenced by his upbringing in a Jewish household and the intellectual currents of his time. Adler's commitment to social justice, education, and ethical living served as the backdrop for his writings. "Creed and Deed" reflects his efforts to synthesize various philosophical traditions'—including transcendentalism and utilitarianism'—while addressing the pressing moral questions of an evolving society. This essential text is highly recommended for readers interested in moral philosophy, the interplay between belief and action, and the historical development of humanistic thought. Adler's incisive analyses offer profound insights that remain relevant today, encouraging readers to transcend conventional beliefs in favor of an ethics rooted in compassionate humanism.
