This 7 page report discusses
the Scottish philosopher and writer David Hume (1711-1776).
Hume’s thinking on morality is the concept of sympathy, which he
views as the basis of interaction between people and the
wellspring of human happiness. He then defines morality as the
qualities that are approved in whomever they happen to appear and
by virtually everybody else. As a result, he sets himself up in
this “Enquiry,” to discover the broadest possible grounds for
those approvals. He finds those grounds of approval in
“feelings” rather than “knowing.” He determines that moral
decisions are established as a result of moral sentiment rather
than understanding. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
