Hardback. Zustand: New. Since at least the time of Plato, religious explanations of the metaphysical foundations of morality have typically fallen into one of two camps: natural law theory, according to which morality is fundamentally explained by facts about human nature-facts that God is responsible for-and divine command theory, which holds that moral obligations arise directly from God's commands or some other prescriptive act of the divine will. J. Caleb Clanton and Kraig Martin offer an accessible analysis of these traditional views, reconstruct the various arguments for and against them, and offer an extended consideration of the historical emergence of the divide between these positions within the Christian tradition. Nature and Command goes on to develop and defend a theory that combines these two views-a metaethical approach that has not yet received the scholarly attention it deserves.Along the way, the authors make use of underexplored theological resources drawn from the Stone-Campbell movement, a nineteenth-century restoration movement that culminated in one of the largest Protestant groups in America by the dawn of the twentieth century. Nature and Command summons the resources of this particular Christian heritage-its first principles, call for unity, and ecumenism-to solve one of the great dilemmas of moral philosophy and theology dating back to Plato's Euthyphro. This historically aware, argumentatively rigorous, and highly readable volume will serve as a valuable resource for moral philosophy and ethics, as well as for mining the Stone-Campbell Restoration tradition for historical and theological insights.…

[1] pp.; 35.5 x 21.5 cm.; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed; Single-sided program for performances of two plays by Le Roi Jones [sic] [Imamu Amiri Baraka] held at St. Marks Playhouse, [December 1964]. Presented by Leo Garen and Stan Swerdlow in association with Gene Persson and Rita Fredricks. Directed by Leo Garen and designed by Larry Rivers, with lighting by Harold Baldridge. Production stage manager - Ed Cambridge. Cast for "The Toilet" includes Gary Bolling, Norman Bush, Hampton Clanton, Antonio Fargas, Bostic Van Felton, Gary Haynes, Tony Hudson, Walter Jones, D'urville Martin, Jaime Sanchez, and James Spruill. Cast for "The Slave" includes Nan Martin, Jerome Raphel, and Al Freeman, Jr. "LEROI JONES is one of the angriest writers to storm the theater?and one of the most gifted. On the evidence of his new one-acters, ?The Slave? and ?The Toilet,? one wonders whether his rage is not at war with his instincts as an artist. In both halves of the double bill, which opened last night at the St. Marks Playhouse, Mr. Jones has exciting and moving things to say. Once again, as in ?Dutchman,? he discloses a sure grasp of the theatrical image. But he cannot resist the urge to shock by invoking violence and all the obscenities he can think of. There are times when these shock tactics perform no useful dramatic function, when they clarify no meaning, when they merely set up needless resistance to what the play is saying. When Mr. Jones sets out to be literal, he is about as unsubtle as the law will allow. ?The Toilet? occurs in a toilet of a boys' high school. Larry Rivers has obliged the author by designing a retreat with all the equipment you would find in a men's room. Leo Garen has staged the opening moments of the play to indicate realistic use of the equipment. Mr. Jones and his colleagues apparently assume that nothing can be left to an audience's imagination." -- Howard Taubman, "Theater: An Angry Man ?Slave? and ?Toilet? by LeRoi Jones Open," New York Times, December 17, 1964.
