Bøker av Max Deutscher

Through a curated selection of essays written over four decades by one of Australia's leading philosophers, this collection demonstrates the impact of Continental philosophy on philosophical thought in Australia.

Opening with the landmark Mabo High Court case in Australia and with detailed reference to other significant debates of judgement of the twentieth century Max Deutscher seeks to explore and explain approaches to the concepts of what is good, right and legal.

Presents the study of Hannah Arendt's "The Life of the Mind" and, at the same time, a philosophical work on the core concepts of thinking, willing and judging. In analysing Arendt's work, this work develops this theme of judgment and shows how, by drawing upon literature, history, myth and idiom, Arendt contributes to contemporary philosophy.
