Details


The conference will be held at the Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas (FAFICH) of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) from the 30th September to the 2nd October, in Belo Horizonte, and at the Instituto de Filosofia, Artes e Cultura (IFAC) of the Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP) from the 3rd to the 4th October, in Ouro Preto.

The GruNie (Nietzsche’s Research Group of the UFMG) is pleased to announce the 2nd International Conference on Nietzsche and the Philosophical Tradition, whose main theme will be Nietzsche and Moral Tradition. It includes not only Nietzsche’s relation to various trends in normative ethics (such as perfectionism, virtue ethics, contractarianism, Christian and Kantian deontology, utilitarianism), but also his place in contemporary moral philosophy, his views on metaethics and moral psychology (both critic and positive), as well as the question of how to connect his genealogical program and his normative commitments, considered both in the context of the nineteenth century philosophical attempts to naturalize morality and in the
light of contemporary discussions on naturalism and normativity.
