Ethics in the Enlightenment - a podcast by Daniel Dal Monte

In this episode, I discuss how ethics changed in the Enlightenment. The classical basis in ethics, in the Platonic intelligible domain, and the Aristotelian teleology, was lost in the secular naturalism of the Enlightenment. So too was the faith-based focus on the afterlife. I discuss the threat of subjectivism in ethics, in which it is based on individual desires without any objective standard! Check out the entry in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy on the Enlightenment online!
