A crítica de Feuerbach à autonomia moral: uma análise sobre a construção do sujeito autônomo em Immanuel Kant

Abstract

Feuerbach (1804-1872) considers Kant's moral philosophy (1724-1804) to be an overvaluation of moral autonomy. This has implications for the modern and contemporary moral subject. Thus, we will try to demonstrate how Kant builds and strengthens the idea of moral autonomy and creates the ideal of a man isolated and split between reason and sensitivity. To do so, we will start from Feuerbach's perspective and highlight the origins of the idea of moral autonomy in the Enlightenment, the Feuerbach's pioneering spirit on this theme, Kantian morality and the conflict generated between reason and nature. Finally, we will demonstrate the consequences of an ethos forged within an individualistic bias.
