UFOMY Philosophy & Ethics Library – 92 Public-Domain Works
UFOMY's Philosophy & Ethics Library offers 92 public-domain works in English, organized into four overlapping subjects: ethics, logic, metaphysics, and political philosophy. The catalogue is a practical reading guide for historical texts, with each record noting title, author, source (Project Gutenberg), keywords, and an editorial commentary on structure and context—based on human reading, not automation. Three reading paths are suggested: Classical Foundations (Plato, Epictetus, Cicero), Modern Critics (Hume, Nietzsche, Schweitzer), and Practical Wisdom (Bennett, Anderson, Ruskin). Browse by category or search by keyword to find works that address moral conduct, the theory of knowledge, or social questions. The collection spans foundational treatises and lesser-known ethical debates.
