Rescued in 1972 from a storeroom in which rats and seeping water had severely damaged the fifty-year-old manuscript, this text is the earliest major work (1919-1921) of the great Russian philosopher Mikhail Bakhtin. Toward a Philosophy of the Act contains the first occurrences of themes that occupied Bakhtin throughout his long career. The topics of authoring, responsibility, self and other, the moral significance of "outsideness," participatory thinking, the implications for the individual subject of having "no-alibi in existence," the relation between the world as experienced in actions and the world as represented in discourse - all are broached here in the white heat of discovery. This is the "heart of the heart" of Bakhtin, the center of the dialogue between being and language, the world and mind, "the given" and "the created" that forms the core of Bakhtin's distinctive dialogism. A special feature of this work is Bakhtin's struggle with the philosophy of Immanuel Kant. Put very simply, this text is an attempt to go beyond Kant's formulation of the ethical imperative. Bakhtin raises issues of cultural relativity, the situatedness of knowledge, and the relation of literary theory to moral philosophy that remain as challenging as when they were first written. Toward a Philosophy of the Act will be important reading for scholars across the humanities as they grapple with the increasingly vexed relationship between aesthetics and ethics.

Warren Quinn was widely regarded as a moral philosopher of remarkable talent. This collection of his most important contributions to moral philosophy and the philosophy of action has been edited for publication by Philippa Foot. Quinn laid out the foundations for an anti-utilitarian moral philosophy that was critical of much contemporary work in ethics, such as the anti-realism of Gilbert Harman and the neo-subjectivism of Bernard Williams. Quinn's own distinctive moral theory is developed in the discussion of substantial, practical moral issues. For example, there are important pieces here on the permissibility of abortion, the justification (if any) of punishing criminals when no particular good seems likely to result, and on the distinction between killing and allowing to die, a distinction crucial to the subject of euthanasia and other topics in medical ethics. The volume would be ideally suited to upper-level undergraduate courses and graduate seminars on the foundations of ethics.

Cet ouvrage du philosophe américain Donald Davidson est reconnu unanimement comme une contribution majeure à la philosophie analytique contemporaine. Davidson y discute les questions principales de la philosophie de l'action (qu'est-ce qu'agir ? qu'est-ce qu'une intention ? un raisonnement pratique ? le libre arbitre est-il compatible avec le déterminisme ?) à partir de thèmes empruntés à Aristote (la faiblesse de la volonté), à Hume (la théorie des passions) et à Wittgenstein (les raisons et les causes). Réfléchissant sur les limites de l'explication en sciences humaines (et en particulier en psychologie et en théorie de la décision), il développe une théorie causale de l'action humaine qui échappe à la fois aux écueils du positivisme et à ceux d'une conception purement herméneutique. La catégorie ontologique fondamentale qui sert de clef de voûte à sa théorie de la causalité, de l'action et de l'esprit est celle d'événement. Elle lui permet de développer une analyse originale de la sémantique de l'action et de proposer une conception du mental qui cherche à concilier le fait que les agents appartiennent au monde de la nature et le fait qu'ils soient soumis à des règles de rationalité normatives. La plupart des essais de Davidson ont acquis le statut de classiques et sont au coeur des débats de la philosophie anglo-américaine contemporaine.
