- catalog abstract ""This book offers a new, phenomenological interpretation of T.H. Green's (1836-82) ethics and political theory and thus sheds a different light on Green's position in the history of philosophy and political thought. By analysing in turn his theories of knowledge, human practice, moral behaviour, the common good, freedom and human rights, the book demonstrates that Green falls into the same tradition as Kantian and Husserlian trancendentalism and allies Green's moral philosophy with the insights of Husserl's phenomenology. One of the central philosophical themes is that of the 'phenomenological circle': the inevitability of employing two perspectives in defining moral action. The book offers a reconstruction of Green's idealism and demonstrates its potential to address contemporary debates on positive and negative freedom and on justifying human rights."--Jacket.".
