Description:

George Edward Moore OM FBA (4 November 1873 – 24 October 1958) was an English philosopher, who with Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein and earlier Gottlob Frege was among the founders of analytic philosophy. He and Russell led the turn from idealism in British philosophy and became known for advocating common-sense concepts and contributing to ethics, epistemology and metaphysics. He was said to have an "exceptional personality and moral character".[7] Ray Monk later dubbed him "the most revered philosopher of his era".[8] As Professor of Philosophy at the University of Cambridge, he influenced but abstained from the Bloomsbury Group. He edited the journal Mind. He was a member of the Cambridge Apostles from 1894 to 1901,[citation needed] a fellow of the British Academy from 1918, and chaired the Cambridge University Moral Sciences Club in 1912–1944.[9][10] As a humanist, he presided over the British Ethical Union (now Humanists UK) in 1935–1936.[11]
