Oktober 1945 in Edinburgh) war ein britischer Moralphilosoph. Taylor lehrte von 1896 bis 1903 Griechisch und Philosophie an der University of Manchester. 1903 übernahm er die Frothingham-Professur an der McGill University in Montreal, 1908 wechselte er auf den Lehrstuhl für Moralphilosophie an die University of St Andrews. Von 1924 bis 1944 lehrte er an der University of Edinburgh. Er galt als profunder Kenner von Platon und Aristoteles. Taylor erhielt zahlreiche Ehrungen und Ehrendoktorwürden; 1911 wurde er Ehrenmitglied der British Academy. Von 1928 bis 1929 war er Präsident der Aristotelian Society. 1934 wurde er als korrespondierendes Mitglied in die Preußische Akademie der Wissenschaften aufgenommen. Zu seinem Gedenken findet seit 1995–1996 an der Universität Edinburgh alljährlich eine Gastvorlesung zur antiken Philosophie statt. (de) Alfred Edward Taylor (Oundle, 22 dicembre 1869 – Edimburgo, 31 ottobre 1945) è stato un filosofo scozzese che insegnò filosofia morale nell’università di Saint Andrews (1908-24), poi (1924-41) in quella di Edimburgo . Alfred Edward Taylor racconta che fin dai primi passi della sua riflessione filosofica era ossessionato dal problema di quale fosse il principio per una reale distinzione tra il bene e il male nel timore che ogni differenza fosse da riportare a criteri puramente soggettivi. Dopo aver cercato la soluzione nello studio di Berkeley, Platone, Aristotele, Kant, Hegel, dei grandi filosofi del Seicento, e, dei contemporanei, Thomas Hill Green, Francis Herbert Bradley, Bernát Alexander, e Bernardino Varisco Taylor giunse alla convinzione che l'etica, dove agisce spesso il conflitto tra altruismo e egoismo, deve essere del tutto autonoma dalla metafisica trovando il suo fondamento: Interessato soprattutto allo studio dei filosofi antichi fu in questo campo che Taylor fu particolarmente apprezzato dagli ambienti filosofici inglesi (Aristotle and his predecessors, 1906; The influence of platonism in our debt to Greece and Rome, 1925; Plato, the man and his work, 1927; trad. it. Platone, l’uomo e l’opera; A commentary on Plato’s Timaeus, 1928).Nell'ambito della questione socratica l'opera di Taylor è stata riferita a quegli studiosi che vedono in Socrate l'anticipatore delle teorie platoniche. In particolare Taylor aderì al neoplatonismo inglese e alle posizioni religiose del cattolicesimo attraverso la ripresa dei temi della scolastica nel neotomismo del '900 .

Был членом Британской Академии (1911) и президентом Аристотелевского общества с 1928 по 1929 год. В Оксфорде он стал почетным членом Нью Колледжа в 1931 году. Во времена потрясений он был известным защитником идеализма в англосаксонском мире. Среди предшественников Тейлора были такие идеалисты как Артур Бальфур, Фрэнсис Герберт Брэдли и Бернард Бозанкет, среди его сверстников большинство философов отличалось сильной антиметафизической тенденцией, включая Бертрана Рассела, Джорджа Эдварда Мура, Чарльза Дунбара Броуда, а также Людвига Витгенштейна.)
