Strong Evaluation Without Sources. On Charles Taylor's Philosophical Anthropology and Cultural Moral Realism (original) (raw)

This study investigates Charles Taylor's concept of 'strong evaluation' within the realms of philosophical anthropology and ethics. It argues for the interrelation of self and values and aims to propose a 'sourceless' moral theory, termed 'cultural moral realism,' that emphasizes the significance of strong evaluations without relying on Taylor's sources of morality. The research contributes to contemporary debates on personhood, identity, and the nature of values, while highlighting the systematic philosophical implications of Taylor's theories.
