Summary: | This essay pursues the development of Charles Taylor's concept of "strong evaluation" from his first publications on this topic until his most recent uses of the concept. Because Taylor employs strong evaluation in discussions of philosophical anthropology, ethics, phenomenology, and ontology all in one, it has been (mis)understood in a variety of ways. To clarify his strategy, the analysis gradually progresses beyond strong evaluation to the more fundamental question of the relation between philosophical anthropology, ethics, phenomenology, and ontology in Taylor's writings. It concludes that Taylor's reasoning especially deserves further investigation with regard to the ontological implications of strong evaluation. |
