  Max Scheler -- Philosophy Books and Online Resources
Yet Scheler is now known chiefly for his philosophy of religion, despite his groundbreaking work in the sociology of knowledge, the sociology of emotions, and phenomenological sociology.
This volume comprises some of Scheler's most interesting work--including an analysis of the role of sentiments in social interaction, a sociology of knowledge rooted in global social and cultural comparisons, and a cross-cultural theory of values--and identifies some of his important contributions to the discussion of issues at the forefront of the social sciences today.
Born in Munich, Scheler taught at the universities of Jena, Munich, and Cologne.

 MAX SCHELER
Max Scheler nacque a Monaco nel 1874, da padre protestante e da madre ebrea; per ben due volte si convertì al cattolicesimo e altrettante volte se ne discostò.
Scheler era convinto che il neokantismo della Scuola di Marburgo, trascurando l'esperienza vissuta, non fosse in grado di cogliere la peculiarità della vita spirituale e culturale dell'uomo.
Scheler scrive espressamente che “il regno dei valori, tutt’intero, è sottomesso a un ordine che gli è costitutivo”.

 20th WCP: On Emotion and Value in David Hume and Max Scheler
Max Scheler has developed his theory of emotion and value within the phenomenological tradition of continental philosophy.
According to Scheler, values are the objects of intentional forms of feelings, and values are regarded by him as some objective, ideal properties.
The results of it can be easily observed, for, in Scheler's stance, there are four kinds of value which differ from one another in their nature or 'essence'.

Scheler did not recognize that from each value flows the demand for a specific, adequate response to the value. Certainly Scheler was correct in showing that morality should not be reduced to a mere fulfillment of duty.
In this article von Hildebrand wishes to show that it was not the phenomenological method which misled Scheler, but that Scheler's failures were due to the fact that he was never a phenomenologist in the full sense and that his errors occurred to the extent that he deviated from a true phenomenological approach.
Scheler was, on the one hand, a person with an extraordinarily spiritual [geistige] nature: he had a constant openness of vision, a great awakedness of spirit.

He taught at the universities of Jena (1901–7) and Munich (1907–10), where he was influenced by Franz Brentano and the followers of Edmund Husserl.
From 1910 he concentrated on writing, but he returned to university teaching at Cologne and Frankfurt after World War I. Scheler was concerned with the permanent values in human personality and human action; this concern brought him to important work in phenomenology, which spread beyond Germany, chiefly through his influence.
In his early thought, for which he is best known, Scheler taught that love is the great principle of human association, and he regarded God as the source of all love.

 [Nietzsche Circle][Essays]
Scheler (1874-1928) is an unusual figure, somebody with a world reputation, but somebody who was judged as recently as 1967 by a sympathetic biographer, John Raphael Staude, to be a comparative failure (Staude 253).
Scheler is seen as contributing to fields as varied as phenomenology and sociology of knowledge, and was a great intellectual inspiration to the late Pope John Paul II.
Scheler’s monograph on ressentiment is an early book, and, for all its fame, lacks the intellectual depth and technical sophistication of his fuller treatises such as The Nature of Sympathy and Formalism in Ethics.

Scheler supone que poseemos un conocimiento previo (como cualidad inherente del ser humano), para establecer lo "bueno" y lo "malo" y escoger determinadas acciones, lo cual significa que la ética de este filósofo, si bien es una ética "material" de los valores, no descansa sobre una base empírica, sino apriorística.
Scheler critica la posición historicista que supone un relativismo de los valores considerándolos productos de una determinada situación histórica; el relativismo historicista, según Scheler, comete el error de no advertir el carácter independiente de los valores confundiéndolos con los cambios que sufren los bienes y las normas.
Así, según Scheler, los valores más inferiores de todos, son los valores esencialmente 'fugaces'; los valores superiores a todos, son, al mismo tiempo, valores eternos.

 Max Scheler
Max Scheler (August 22, 1874, Munich - May 19, 1928, Frankfurt am Main) was a German-Jewish philosopher.
Natural and scientific attitudes (Einstellung) are both phenomenologically counterpositive and hence must be sublated in the advancement of the real phenomenological reduction which, in the eyes of Scheler, has more the shapes of an allround ascesis (Askese) rather than a mere logical procedure of suspending the existential judgments.
The Wesenschau (or Wesensschau), according to Scheler, is an act of blowing up the Sosein limits of Sein A into the essential-ontological domain of Sein B, in short, an ontological participation of Sosenheiten, seeing the things as such (cf.

 Discourse
Scheler also dismisses Kant's strong rejection of the emotions as a legitimate cognitive means to moral beliefs.
In Scheler's conception, the emotions are the sole cognitive means through which a person may have access to the range of values and disvalues, including moral values.
Scheler is unequivocal in his claim that the emotions do, in fact, perceive values.

 Sociology of Knowledge
Scheler's insistence on a realm of eternal values and ideas, however, limits the usefulness of his notion of `real factors' for the explanation of social and cultural change.
Like Scheler he extended the con­cept of substructure, suggesting that biological factors, psychological elements and spiritual phenomena might take the place of primary economic relations in the substructure, but (just like the dominant theory of science) he did not think that scientific and technical knowledge could be subjected to sociological analysis.
Max Scheler and Karl Mannheim in Germany and, even earlier, Emile Durkheim, Lucien Levy-Bruhl, Marcel Mauss and Maurice Halbwachs in France, are the most significant figures here.

 Max Scheler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Max Scheler (Monaco, 1875 - Francoforte sul Meno, 1928) estende l'analisi fenomenologica, che in Husserl era vista essenzialmente nel suo aspetto teorico, agli aspetti emozionali e pratici.
Secondo Scheler, gli oggetti, verso i quali si dirige l'intenzionalità della coscienza, sono i "valori" eterni disposti in ordine gerarchico, a partire da "gradevole" e "sgradevole", per passare successivamente a valori sempre più elevati: i valori vitali, i valori spirituali e i valori religiosi.
Al culmine della gerarchia, Scheler pone la simpatia, che distrugge l'illusione solipsistica e ci rivela la realtà deel'"altro in quanto altro", vaòlida quanto la nostra realtà, e l'amore, che consiste nel comprendere gli altri, nel riuscire a mettermi al loro posto pur continuando a considerarli come "modalmente differenti" da me.

 20th WCP: Philosophical-Anthropological Approach to Historic-Cultural Research
On the basis of theory developed by Max Scheler, I try to work out the main characteristics of cultural process, the typology of culture, and the periodization of culture.
Max Scheler created the global Theory of the historical Process as a penetration of Man into his own substance, as a permanent search for "selfness", "independent being into itself".
Giving the definition of Man as a "creature surpassing himself and the World", Max Scheler affirms that "the conduction opened to the World" and "never stopped passion for penetration into the open World's space-Cosmos-had obliged Man for looking for how to implant his Absolute Centre outside of the World".

Peter Spader has written a magisterial study on Max Scheler, one of phenomenology’s earliest and greatest figures, whose theory of ethical personalism has become a major voice in the formulation of phenomenological ethics today.
Spader follows Scheler’s use of the classic phenomenological approach, by means of which he presented a fresh view of values, feelings, and the person, and thereby staked out a new approach in ethics.
Spader recreates the logic of Scheler’s quest, revealing the basis of his thought and the reasons for his dramatic changes of direction.

Scheler utilizó la fenomenología para estudiar los fenómenos emocionales y sus respectivas intencionalidades (los valores).
Siguiendo a Pascal, dice Scheler que "existe un orden del corazón a priori, una lógica del corazón" que es independiente del orden de la razón.

Max Scheler (August 22, 1874, Munich - May 19, 1928, Frankfurt am Main) was a German philosopher known for his work in phenomenology, ethics, and philosophical anthropology.
The heart of Scheler's thought was his theory of value.
Another unique and controversial element of Scheler's axiology is the notion of the emotive a priori: values can only be felt, just as color can only be seen.

 Nicolai Hartmann: Proper Ethics Is Atheistic
Affective consciousness is receptive in a way quite like that in which sensory perception or reflective perception is receptive; it is a sensing of an axiotic state of affairs much as perceptual experience is a sensing of ontic states or affairs or of epistemic states of affairs.
Hartmann agrees with Max Scheler in rejecting the idea that the aim of every morally good action is its own moral goodness.
Scheler identified the comparative height of the value striven for as the principal criterion for right choice and comparative depth of the satisfaction that fulfillment brings as a principal index of the height of the value of what was striven for.

In comparison to Husserl and Heidegger, Max Scheler's philosophy of time as first presented here, is considerably wider in scope.
Frings focuses here with Scheler on time experience of values and among social groups, time experiences in the mind-set of capitalism, in politics and morals, in population dynamics, and time experiences in the process of aging, all of which were signposts in Scheler's thought before his early demise.
Max Scheler was one of the most creative philosophers of the 20th Century.

The Max Scheler Society of North America, devoted to the philosophy of the German philosopher, Max Scheler (1874-1928), was incorporated as a professional society in 2004 after meeting informally for a number of years conjointly with meetings of the American Philosophical Association.
Although a German society, the Max-Scheler-Gesellschaft, has been in existence for some years, it was felt that a North American society was needed as a more proximate venue for sharing work being done in the English language among scholars in the Western hemisphere.

 The Conservative Philosopher Max Scheler, George Orwell, Ressentiment, and the Left
Max Scheler describes a form of ressentiment that leads to "indiscriminate criticism without any positive aims." (Ressentiment, ed.
51) Although Scheler was writing in the years before the First World War, his description puts me in mind of contemporary liberals and leftists.
This particular kind of "ressentiment criticism" is characterized by the fact that improvements in the conditions criticized cause no satisfaction – they merely cause discontent, for they destroy the growing pleasure afforded by invective and negation.
