Non-Epicurean Desires
Vol 17, No 1 (2016) • Filosofia Unisinos - Unisinos Journal of Philosophy
Autor: Fabien Schang
Resumo:
In this paper, it is argued that there can be necessary and non-natural desires. After a discussion about what seems wrong with such desires, Epicurus’ classification of desires is treated similarly to Kripke’s treatment of the Kantian table of judgments. A sample of three cases is suggested to make this point.
