Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyse and synthesise the ethical views of the Kyiv-Mohyla scholars of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in order to create a holistic view of ethics as a practical science through the study of such phenomena-terms as "behaviour", "human action", "rules of conduct", "customs", "skills", "good", "happiness", "justice", and "passions". The author identifies the general specificity of the ethical views that dominated the philosophical courses of the professors of the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy; analyses the ethical reflections of Heorhii Konyskyi; demarcates between the types of good, justice and happiness; and explores the essence of the psychological state of a person acting under the influence of passions.
期刊介绍:
Sententiae is historico-philosophical open access journal. Journal created by Modern philosophy''s research group (Pascalian society). Founded in 2000. Published twice a year, in June and December. Our purpose is to foster the development of a wide gamut of contemporary approaches, active implementation of them into research practice, and establishment of high standards of teaching philosophy basing on the achievements of contemporary history of philosophy. Our key priority is to ensure the empirical substantiation of historico-philosophical conceptions, basing on the criteria of literality, exhaustivity, contextuality and taking into account the existing speculative interpretations. Jean-Luc Marion was the first to formulate this set of criteria in 1998 as the main features of contemporary researches of Descartes''s philosophy. We regard these principles as the methodological background of any substantiated research method in the history of philosophy. Publishing materials on all historico-philosophical topics, we pay special attention to researches in terminology, issues of philosophical translation and untranslatability, manuscript researches (including handwritten heritage of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy professors of ХVІІ–ХVІІІ century), and cover the development of large-scale projects in this area. We also publish new bilingual and commented Ukrainian translations of classical foreign philosophical texts. Among our priorities there is also a coverage of the history of philosophical thought in Ukraine and other Eastern European countries and its relations to the wider cultural context (theology, literature, natural sciences, political ideology etc). The content of each issue is distributed according to Genre Sections and Thematic Headings. Currently there are 10 Genre Sections.
