| Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals/On a Supposed Right to Lie Because of Philanthropic Concerns
| | Immanuel Kant
| This expanded edition of James Ellington’s preeminent translation includes Ellington’s new translation of Kant’s essay “Of a Supposed Right to Lie Because of Philanthropic Concerns” in which Kant replies to one of the standard objections to his moral theory as presented in the main text: that it requires us to tell the truth even in the face of disastrous consequences.
