What is an Animal? A Philosophical Reflection on the Possibility of a Moral Relationship with Animals.Hub Zwart - 1997 - Environmental Values 6 (4):377-392.details Contemporary ethical discourse on animals is influenced partly by a scientific and partly by an anthropomorphic understanding of them. Apparently, we have deprived ourselves of the possibility of a more profound acquaintance with them. In this contribution it is claimed that all ethical theories or statements regarding the moral significance of animals are grounded in an ontological assessment of the animal's way of being. In the course of history, several answers have been put forward to the question of what animals (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 14 citations

(2 other versions)Da experiência estético-teleológica da natureza à consciência ecológica: uma leitura da Crítica do Juízo de Kant.Leonel Ribeiro dos Santos - 2006 - Trans/Form/Ação 29 (1):7-29.details O objetivo deste ensaio é propor uma interpretação daquilo que para muitos intérpretes constitui o enigma e a dificuldade maior da terceira Crítica de Kant: o fato de o filósofo remeter para a mesma faculdade do espírito (a faculdade de julgar – Urteilskraft) e para o mesmo princípio transcendental de apreciação (a teleoformidade ou conformidade a fins – Zweckmässigkeit) o fenômeno da arte humana e os fenômenos da natureza organizada – a estética e a teleologia.
