abstract

  • Love is one of the themes that has captivated philosophers, writers, artists and poets throughout human history. This theme captures and seduces because it is part of the most unfathomable of our human nature. It is also a recurrent issue for the general public, in their daily conversations. This is so, since love is capable of influencing human behavior even in moral matters. Thus, the present study intends, by comparing two philosophers, different and distant in time such as I. Kant and H. Frankfurt, to characterize how love configures the will of a moral agent to such an extent that it does not necessarily behave considering only the moral law raised by Kant. For this it is necessary to compare the Frankfurt proposals with the latter, since this allows to establish the common points and the differences of these two authors in the subject of obligations, autonomy, feelings and emotions that point towards the moral.
