The Initiating of Axiological Ethics-The Thinking's Coordinates and Gist of Brentano's Ethics
On the basis of critically absorbing three kinds of representative ethics,Brentano has completed the intersection with axiological philosophy and opened up a unique type of ethics:axiological ethics.The essence of axiological ethics is to establish the grounds for"the good"and the right behaviour by means of intrinsic value and value laws.Beauty,truth,and goodness,as three basic intrinsic values,are right ends which are not only presented by the emotions that are experienced as being correct,but also directed by right endeavours.In the activities of choosing,the emotion that are experienced as being correct is manifested as"the preference"that are experienced as being right,and correspondingly,the right end is embodied as"the better."Evident value laws can not only establish"the better"to regulate"the preference"and practical behaviours,but also finally reach the principle of"the supreme practical good":"further as far as possible the good within our sphere of influence."The principle of the supreme practical good is the highest principle and absolute law of axiological ethics.The axiological ethics initiated by Brentano provides ideological content and methodological preparation not only for the later axiological ethics which have a more complete form but also for the phenomenological ethics.
