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.
