摘要

摘要：亨利·大卫·梭罗经常被视为一个反工作的怪人，事实上，他是一位精明的工作哲学家，他设计了一种哲学，设想了工作在美好生活中发挥的有益作用。他的文章《没有原则的生活》是一篇悲愤的文章，哀叹物质主义腐蚀工作的方式，并呼吁他的读者忏悔，转向以道德和精神价值观为指导的自我文化生活。对工作的救赎来自于一种生活原则，这种生活原则使工作对工人来说是愉快的，在执行过程中是道德的，对公共利益有益。

Thoreau's "Life without Principle" and the Art of Living and Getting a Living

Abstract:Often seen as an anti-work crank, Henry David Thoreau was, in reality, an astute philosopher of work who devised a philosophy that envisioned the beneficial role work plays in the well-lived life. His essay "Life without Principle" is a jeremiad that laments the ways that materialism corrupts work, and calls upon his readers to repent and turn to a life of self-culture guided by moral and spiritual values. Salvation of work comes from a life lived with principle that makes work pleasurable for the worker, moral in its execution, and beneficial to the common good.

期刊介绍： For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
