Packet 6: Bonus 17
Description acceptable. This claim allegedly reverses ethics’s “combat” between “eternity, invariableness, and divine origin” on one hand and “blindness, unconstancy, and deceitfulness” on the other. For 10 points each:
[10m] A claim in A Treatise of Human Nature concerns what relationship between two faculties? According to that passage, this relationship “is, and ought only to be.”
ANSWER: “Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions” [accept any descriptions indicating that reason is passion’s slave or that reason is subordinate to the passions]
[10e] Hume’s Treatise of Human Nature locates ethical reasoning in these feelings, which name an emotional genre of 18th-century novel. Adam Smith developed his account of sympathy in a book titled for these “moral” feelings.
ANSWER: moral sentiments [accept the sentimental novel; accept The Theory of Moral Sentiments]
[10h] In a sentiment-based reply, Hume wrote that an honest man’s heart would reject the reasoning of this free rider. This “sensible” person profits from only those immoral acts that do not threaten the system as a whole.
ANSWER: sensible knave (The sensible knave appears in An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals.)
