Existentialist ethics - M. Warnock
Existentialism is often spoken of as if it were a coherent system of philosophy, and as if it had some particular revelance to ethics. It is often supposed, indeed, to give rise to a uniquekind of ethical theory.
In this essay an attempt is made to bring out some common presuppositions of all existential writing, by examining, very briefly, the thought of Kierkegaard and Heidegger, and at greater lenght, some of the early work of Jean-Paul Sartre. It is suggested that existentialism is, in many ways, more like a mood than a system, and that though the existentialist mood, and its characteristic tone of voice, has indeed a bearing upon ethical theory, it cannot give rise by itself to any single coherent moral philosophy.
