Fear of imprecision as the beginning of wisdom: commentary on ‘Definitional Drift Within the Science of Forgiveness’
Oderberg, D.
It is advisable to refer to the publisher's version if you intend to cite from this work. See Guidance on citing. Abstract/SummaryThe provocative paper ‘Definitional Drift Within the Science of Forgiveness’ challenges us to define forgiveness in a way that is precise, accurate, and instructive for therapists. I take up the challenge, drawing on the materials in ‘Definitional Drift’, adopting the Aristotelian method of definition the authors rightly commend, and using the system of binary classification handed down from Porphyry to produce a definition of forgiveness that meets this all-important challenge.
