Work

Bertrand Russell on ethics, sex, and marriage

This volume gathers Bertrand Russell's writings examining ethical questions, his perspectives on sexual morality, and his analysis of marriage as a social and personal institution. Russell, one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century, approaches these topics with his characteristic rationalism and commitment to empirical reasoning. The collection addresses philosophical foundations of ethics, challenges traditional moral conventions regarding sexuality, and evaluates the contractual and emotional dimensions of marital relationships. Russell's treatment of these subjects reflects his broader philosophical positions favoring free inquiry, individual liberty, and the application of logical analysis to human social practices. more
