Glossary
12-4IDEALISM (Aries)
[6] Moral imagination and the faculty of having moral ideas can become objects of knowledge only after they have been produced by the individual. By then, however, they no longer regulate life, for they have already regulated it. They must now be regarded as effective causes, like all others (they are purposes only for the subject). We therefore deal with them as with a natural history of moral ideas.
[7] Ethics as a science that sets standards, in addition to this, cannot exist.
