  • av Robert S. Tragesser
    459,-

    Edmund Husserl discusses the question of whether the world is of our making or whether some form of realism is true. In this book Robert Tragesser sets out to determine the conditions under which a realist ontology of mathematics and logic might be justified, taking Husserl as his starting point.

  • av Allen (Boston University) Speight
    459 - 653,-

    Speight argues that behind Hegel's appeal to literature in the Phenomenology of Spirit lies a concern with understanding human agency in the modern world. Hegel looked to three literary genres - tragedy, comedy, and the Romantic novel - as offering privileged access to three moments of human agency: retrospectivity, theatricality, and forgiveness.

  • av Charles Taylor
    275 - 1 001,-

    Introduction to Hegel's thought for the student and general reader, emphasizing in particular his social and political thought and his continuing relevance to contemporary problems.

  • - Habermas and the Frankfurt School
    av Raymond Geuss
    233,-

    Habermas and earlier members of the Frankfurt School have presented critical theory as a radically new form of knowledge. It is differentiated from the natural sciences as essentially 'reflective': the knowledge it provides guides us towards enlightenment as to our true interests, and emancipation from often unsuspected forms of external and internal coercion. Its first paradigms are in the writings of Marx and Freud. In this book Raymond Geuss sets out these fundamental claims and asks whether they can be made good. Is a science which does not simply describe and explain social phenomena, but also criticizes? The concept of ideology plays a crucial role in this discussion. Geuss carefully analyses it here, its relation to our beliefs and interests, and the account of truth and confirmation required by its critique and the concomitant goal of self-knowledge. The book does not presuppose acquaintance with the works of the Frankfurt School and can serve as a lucid introduction to their central, distinctive theses. But in its scrupulous and incisive consideration of these, and the modified support for them that emerges, it will also interest experts on critical theory and others concerned with the methods and purposes of the social sciences in general.

    752,-

  • - Its Origin and Scope
    av Germany) Carl, Wolfgang (Georg-August-Universitat & Goettingen
    522 - 1 160,-

    Gottlob Frege has exerted an enormous influence on the evolution of twentieth-century philosophy, yet the real significance of that influence is still very much a matter of debate. This book provides a completely new and systematic account of Frege's philosophy by focusing on its cornerstone: the theory of sense and reference.

  • - From the Bolsheviks to Evald Ilyenkov
    av David (Queen's University & Ontario) Bakhurst
    713 - 1 211,-

    This 1991 book is a critical study of the philosophical culture of the USSR, and the first substantial treatment of a Soviet philosopher's work by a Western author.

  • - Signs, System and Arbitrariness
    av David Holdcroft
    522 - 1 274,-

    Professor Holdcroft's book expounds and elaborates Saussure's central ideas - that the primary object in studying a language is the state of that language at a particular time - a so-called synchronic study. It also offers a critical assessment of them, arguing that many of Saussure's claims are either questionable or have been misunderstood.
