Desejo Sexual: Uma investigação filosófica book pdf download

Author: Roger Scruton

About the Author: Roger Scruton who has died of lung cancer aged 75, was a philosopher and a controversial public intellectual. Active in the fields of aesthetics, art, music, political philosophy and architecture, both inside and outside the academic world, he dedicated himself to nurturing beauty, “re-enchanting the world” and giving intellectual rigour to conservatism. He wrote more than 50 books, including perceptive works on Spinoza, Kant, Wittgenstein and the history of philosophy, and four novels, as well as columns on wine, hunting and current affairs, and was a talented pianist and composer. A member of the traditionalist-conservative Salisbury Group, he helped found the Salisbury Review, which he edited from 1982 to 2001. This quarterly, which was circulated in the Soviet bloc, often in samizdat form, was criticised in Britain for having retrograde attitudes. In 1984 it defended Ray Honeyford, the Bradford headteacher who had disputed the value of multicultural education. Consequent hostility from colleagues prompted Scruton to abandon in 1992 his professorship in aesthetics at what is now Birkbeck, University of London, where he had started as a lecturer in 1971. Though he felt this had scuppered his academic career, in the event it freed him for activities and adventures on a wider stage.

Desejo Sexual: Uma investigação filosófica book pdf download By Roger Scruton

Roger Scruton, filósofo britânico contemporâneo mundialmente reconhecido por suas investigações filosóficas a respeito da beleza, da arquitetura e da música, aborda agora, talvez pela primeira vez na história do Ocidente com tamanha objetividade, o fenômeno mais típico da nossa natureza: o desejo sexual. Depois de definir o que é o desejo sexual especificamente humano, Scruton busca afirmar o que muitos sempre consideraram impossível: que há uma moralidade intrínseca ao ato sexual humano, simplesmente por ser humano, independentemente de códigos morais religiosos ou condutas sociais impostas.
