	Harvard Gazette: Korsgaard to initiate thinker's salon
		Korsgaard plans to use the prize money to initiate a series of seminars starting in 2006 focusing on many of the philosophical topics she has spent her career addressing.
		Korsgaard also plans to organize a conference on moral duties to animals, a topic she addressed last year when she delivered the Tanner Lectures on Human Values at the University of Michigan.
		Korsgaard developed her interest in moral theory and the philosophy of Immanuel Kant while studying at Harvard as a student of John Rawls, author of the influential book, "A Theory of Justice." Rawls' work offered an alternative to the utilitarian theories of morality and government that had predominated until that time.

	Amazon.de: Creating the Kingdom of Ends: English Books: Christine Korsgaard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Christine Korsgaard has become one of the leading interpreters of Kant's moral philosophy.
		She is identified with a small group of philosophers who are intent on producing a version of Kant's moral philosophy that is at once sensitive to its historical roots while revealing its particular relevance to contemporary problems.
		Christine Korsgaard's _Creating the Kingdom of Ends_ is a fine exposition and elaboration of the ethics of Immanuel Kant.

	The Sources of Normativity von Thomas Nagel, Christine M. Korsgaard, Gerald A. Cohen, Raymond Geuss (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Drawing heavily on Kant but also striking out on her own, Korsgaard locates the origin of obligation in the ability to reflect, and in particular to reflect upon oneself as an agent in the pursuit of ends (a "citizen of the Kingdom of Ends").
		Korsgaard says this: Other's needs are necessarily a reason for me to act, because I can understand what they say when they state that they have needs.
		All of these questions are left unanswered by Korsgaard as she proceeds to establish the authority of morality in our nature as human beings, in our ability to reflect on who we are and what we take to be important and our need to act on reasons and endorse the reasons we act on.

	Amazon.com: The Sources of Normativity: Books: Christine M. Korsgaard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Christine Korsgaard fixes, at least for me, this problem, by showing that one does not have to venture outside humanity in order to ground its morality.
		Korsgaard, having discussed various accounts of the sources of normativity and shown them to be inadequate, gives her own Kantian answer to the question, focusing on the roles we play and our role as human beings.
		Korsgaard sets out her theory in four lectures (in addition to the Prologue) which are then followed by responses from four distinguished philosophers: G.A. Cohen, Raymond Geuss, Thomas Nagel and Bernard Williams.

	Reading Assignment and Focus Questions for Christine Korsgaard’s
		According to Korsgaard, what two things are meant by the thesis—held in her view by Kant—that good is a rational concept?
		According to Korsgaard, why is it that a person could achieve his/her goal of deception, if the person were to universalize the maxim of lying to the murderer at the door?
		According to Korsgaard, which of the two formulations of the categorical imperative—the Formula of Universal Law or the Formula of Humanity—represents the rule of conduct that would provide guidance in less than ideal circumstances, if Kant’s moral theory were treated as being a double-level theory?

	Amazon.ca: The Sources of Normativity: Books: Onora O'Neill,Christine M. Korsgaard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Christine Korsgaard identifies and examines four accounts of the source of normativity that have been advocated by modern moral philosophers--voluntarism, realism, reflective endorsement, and the appeal to autonomy--and shows how Kant's autonomy-based account emerges as a synthesis of the other three.
		Korsgaard does not give any clear way to identify the moral choice in the tough problem cases.
		Ultimately, Korsgaard fails to provide an answer to her first question, and provides a specious answer to her second.

		Christine Korsgaard identifies four accounts of the source of normativity that have been advocated by modern moral philosophers: voluntarism, realism, reflective endorsement, and the appeal to autonomy.
		Kant's theory that normativity springs from our own autonomy emerges as a synthesis of the other three, and Korsgaard concludes with her own version of the Kantian account.
		Her discussion is followed by commentary from G. Cohen, Raymond Geuss, Thomas Nagel, and Bernard Williams, and a reply by Korsgaard.

	Christine M. Korsgaard: Creating the Kingdom of Ends - Bøger (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		While I do not agree with a great deal of what Professor Korsgaard has to say in this text, I willingly admit that it is, by far, the most accessible and easily read sophisticated commentary on Kant's ethical theory.
		Indeed, her study of the Groundwork of the Metatphysics of Morals is just as insightful and complex as that of Roger Sullivan or Allen Wood.
		What makes Professor Korsgaard's work stand apart is that it can be not only read but actually understood by someone who is familiar with the primary texts.

		This edition presents the acclaimed translation of the text by Mary Gregor, together with an introduction by Christine M. Korsgaard that examines and explains Kant's argument.
		This new edition of the Groundwork is excellent for undergraduate teaching purposes; the introduction by Korsgaard is very helpful on several points, including her distinction between the purposes or objects ('materials') of our intentions and the maxims or principles on the basis of which we formed these intentions.
		Professor Korsgaard also gives an excellent explanation of Kant's critique of sympathy or Rousseauian natural pity as the motive that makes for a good will.

		What I would like to say is, to put it a little bluntly, that he taught us how to read a book [3].

	Moral Epistemology [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The Kantian turn conceives the “space of reasons” in more individualistic terms: the choices of individuals are morally evaluable according to whether the principles implicit (or explicit) in them pass some objective test, or tests, of rationality, such as being permitted by Kant’s Categorical Imperative (Korsgaard, 1996; Audi, 2004).
		Finally, the existentialist turn views facts and logic as radically underdetermining the rationality of choices, a short-coming that can only be made up for by adopting some thoroughly subjective criteria, usually some kind of authenticity, or trueness to oneself (Kierkegaard, [1843]; Sartre, 1992).
