Giorgio Erle is an associate professor of moral philosophy at the Department of Human Sciences. His research focuses to the link between the theoretical and the practical sphere of philosophical reflection: in this perspective he first analyzed the emergence of issues of ethical relevance in Hegel’s “Philosophy of Nature”. He has been subsequently continuing this research by pointing out the ethical meaning of scientific study and the consequences of all this also on an aesthetic level, particularly on Leibniz's philosophy of music and, more generally, regarding consequences on German Classical Philosophy. Within a “harmonic” understanding of being he also places his research about the ethical meaning of caring, understood on the one hand as sharing responsibility within the “polis” with special reference to the duty of truthfulness and on the other hand regarding the mind/body problem both from a historical perspective and from the point of view of the Philosophy of Medicine, Ethics of Relation and Ethics of Harmony. His most recent research concerns the issue of a German Idealism heritage in contemporary ethical thinking, with particular reference to authors such as Hans Jonas and Karl-Otto Apel.
