Frontmatter -- Contents -- Preface -- The Philosophical Idealism of Timothy Sprigge -- Timothy Sprigge: The Grinch that Stole Time -- Timothy Sprigge and Panpsychism -- Dialectical Ascent on a Spriggean Theme -- What Sort of Idealism is Viable Today? -- Sprigge’s Vindication of Concrete Universals -- The Compounding of Consciousness -- From Consciousness to the Absolute -- How Many Divine Minds? -- Sprigge’s Spinoza -- Idealism and God -- God, Sprigge, and Idealist Philosophy of Religion -- A Leibnizian God of Metaphysics? -- God and Evil: A Process Perspective -- How Alien Are Animals? -- Ecosophy, Sophophily and Philotheria -- The Principle of Humanity and the Principle of Utility -- My Philosophy and Some Defence of It -- Selected Publications of T. L. S. Sprigge -- Notes on Contributors -- Backmatter
Summary: Timothy Sprigge has been a major player on the philosophical scene contributing to discussions as diverse as consciousness, the ontology of time, personal identity, animal rights, punishment, censorship and wider issues in metaphysics, ethics and the history of philosophy. He is, however, less well known for his own highly original system of metaphysics and ethics'a synthesis of Absolute Idealism, panpsychism and utilitarianism. The contributions gathered in this volume, written by philosophers of international reputation or by acknowledged scholars in their specialized fields of inquiry, engage themes in his metaphysics and ethics and provide a critical assessment of his ideas and arguments. In a concluding essay, Sprigge answers the most significant objections raised by his critics: the final result is an engaging dialogue on the perennial and most fundamental questions of philosophy.
