商品簡介
In this thought-provoking book, philosophers Eve Garrard and David McNaughton suggest that the whole debate suffers from a crippling lack of clarity about what forgiveness really amounts to. Bringing their philosophical acumen to bear they show forgiveness to be a more difficult, complex and troubling subject than many of its advocates suppose. Drawing on specific examples and well-known case-studies the authors shine fresh light on the debate and show how a proper understanding of forgiveness allows us to recognize and avoid its cheap and shallow forms.
At its highest, Garrard and McNaughton argue, forgiveness shows solidarity with our fellow humans – not when they are at their magnificent best, but when they are at their moral worst, low in the dust. Although recognizing that solidarity with the victims is always more important than solidarity with perpetrators, they show that these need not be alternatives, and that in choosing to forgive offenders, we can both acknowledge the nature of what they have done, terrible as it sometimes is, and also remain open to hope for something better in the future.
