Philosophie de la sexualité
2 janvier 2005
Le site personnel du professeur Alan Soble propose un certain nombre d'essais dont celui-ci, consacré à la philosophie de la sexualité :
The philosophy of sex investigates conceptual, metaphysical and normative questions -- although the boundaries among these three are hardly firm. Metaphysical and normative philosophy of sex are well developed, stretching back to Plato" and Augustine; sexual ethics has a famous history, and the contemplation of the place of sexuality in human nature is central to Christianity. The analysis of sexual concepts, by contrast, is in its infancy. The subjects of analysis are these core concepts and the logical relationships among them: sexual desire, sensation, pleasure, act, arousal and satisfaction. Derivative sexual concepts, which presuppose an understanding of the core concepts, are also the subject of analysis. Among these are rape, sexual harassment, sexual orientation, sexual perversion, prostitution and pornography.Alan Soble, Philosophy of sexuality.
Pour nous changer des freuderies habituelles. Décidément, l'année commence vraiment bien.
