Active Principles or Elements of Moral Science: Mental Feelings, Volitions, Moral Perceptions, and Sentiments is a book written by John Hensley Godwin in 1885. The book explores the fundamental principles of moral science, including mental feelings, volitions, moral perceptions, and sentiments. Godwin delves into the nature of these principles and how they relate to the development of a moral character.The book is divided into four sections, each focusing on a different aspect of moral science. The first section explores mental feelings, including love, hate, fear, and joy, and how they shape our moral character. The second section discusses volitions, or the power of the will, and how it relates to our moral choices.The third section of the book is devoted to moral perceptions, which are the ways in which we perceive moral truths and values. Godwin examines the various factors that influence moral perception, including education, culture, and religion.The final section of the book focuses on moral sentiments, or the emotional responses we have to moral situations. Godwin argues that these sentiments are essential to the development of a strong moral character and that they play a crucial role in shaping our moral judgments and actions.Overall, Active Principles or Elements of Moral Science is a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental principles of moral science. Godwin's insights into the nature of mental feelings, volitions, moral perceptions, and sentiments provide a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the nature of morality and how it relates to human behavior.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
