TL;DRAbstract

The essays that appear here are the result of an invitation from the editor to various distinguished authors soliciting original contributions on responsibility. Inevitably the contributions that emerge from such a request will be diverse in their approaches and themes. In spite of this, it can be said that the contributions gravitate toward one of two general themes: (1) responsibility for one's own character and (2) culpability and the role of the moral emotions. In this introduction I discuss these general topics and then relate the themes to the essays presented here.
