Bleeding Hearts by Alyxandra Harvey
This book explores the morality of pride, a value that has been condemned through history and is still largely unwelcome in many societies. The author explores the nature of the self and free will, and how pride links to technology and rational theology. It refers to the work of Lionel Trilling, Allan Bloom, Charles Taylor and Heidegger on authenticity; Jacob Burckhardt, Stephen Toulmin, Max Weber and Mark Lilla on modernity; Christine Korsgaard on the self; John Rawls and Ruth Benedict on morality; and the Stoics and Kant on free will.ALYXANDRA HARVEY majored in creative writing and literature at York University, and her poetry has appeared in a number of publications. She is a belly dancer and a jewelry maker when she is not writing. She and her husband, hawk, and two dogs reside in an old farmhouse in Ontario. www.heartsatstake.com www.alyxandraharvey.com
