Philosophy in History pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Richard Rorty,Jerome B. Schneewind,Quentin Skinner Published on 1984-11-08 by Cambridge University Press Download The sixteen essays in this volume confront the current debate about the relationship between philosophy and its history. On the one hand intellectual historians commonly accuse philosophers of writing bad - anachronistic - history of philosophy, and on the other, philosophers have accused intellectual historians of writing bad - antiquarian - history of philosophy. The essays here address this controversy and ask what purpose the history of philosophy should serve. Part I contains more purely theoretical and methodological discussion, of such questions as whether there are 'timeless' philosophical problems, whether the issues of one epoch are commensurable with those of another, and what style is appropriate to the historiography of the subject. The essays in Part II consider a number of case-histories. They presen...

On Heidegger's Nazism and Philosophy pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Tom Rockmore Published on 1992 by Univ of California Press Download That Martin Heidegger supported National Socialism has long been common knowledge. Yet the relation between his philosophy and political commitments remains highly contentious and recently has erupted into a vociferous debate. Boldly refuting arguments that the philosopher's political stance was accidental or adopted under coercion, Rockmore argues that Heidegger's philosophical thought and his Nazism are inseparably intertwined, that he turned to National Socialism on the basis of his philosophy, and that his later evolution is largely determined by his continuing concern with Nazism. After developing a framework that clearly outlines the interrelation of Nazism and Heidegger's philosophy, Rockmore analyzes the famous rectoral address the philosopher delivered in 1933 upon becoming rector of the University of Freiburg. In that speech He...

Philosophy and Government 1572-1651 pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Richard Tuck Published on 1993-03-18 by Cambridge University Press Download This major new contribution to our understanding of European political theory will challenge the perspectives in which political thought is understood. Framed as a general account of the period between 1572 and 1651 it charts the formation of a distinctively modern political vocabulary, based on arguments of political necessity and raison d'etat in the work of the major theorists. While Dr. Tuck pays detailed attention to Montaigne, Grotius, Hobbes and the theorists of the English Revolution, he also reconsiders the origins of their conceptual vocabulary in humanist thought--particularly skepticism and stoicism--and its development and appropriation during the revolutions in Holland and France. This book will be welcomed by all historians of political thought and those interested in the development of the idea of the state. This Book was rank...

The Philosophy of Peter Abelard pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:John Marenbon Published on 1999-09-23 by Cambridge University Press Download This book offers a major reassessment of the philosophy of Peter Abelard (1079-1142) which shows that he was a far more constructive and wider-ranging thinker than has usually been supposed. It combines detailed historical discussion, based on published and manuscript sources, with philosophical analysis which aims to make clear Abelard's central arguments about the nature of things, language and the mind, and about morality. Although the book concentrates on these philosophical questions, it places them within their theological and wider intellectual context.

Rousseau on Philosophy, Morality, and Religion pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Jean-Jacques Rousseau,Christopher Kelly Published on 2007 by UPNE Download The pioneering collection Rousseau on Philosophy, Morality, and Religion brings together Rousseau's key published and unpublished (in English translation), writings on philosophy, morality, and religion. This comprehensive, tightly constructed anthology can easily stand alone or serve as an exceptional companion to Rousseau's First and Second Discourses and Social Contract. Readers will find herein the definitive translation of the key Essay on the Origin of Languages, rarer works such as the Four Letters to M. the President de Malesherbes--containing one of Rousseau's most important statements about his thought and its origin and development--and much more. Less well-known, less accessible, and frequently overlooked, these brilliant shorter pieces in many ways encapsulate Rousseau's thought more directly or more simply ...

The Philosophy Scare pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:John McCumber Published on 2016-09-15 by University of Chicago Press Download This book presents John McCumber s extensive researches into the fascinating story of how a New and Improved Philosophy was born during the early Cold War period. McCumber argues that underlying the search for truth through the application of logic and mathematics to experience was the repressive politics of the McCarthy Era. Utilizing ideas from both Kuhn and Foucault he uncovers the origins of the paradigm of philosophy as a science which came to dominate much of American intellectual life in general and the teaching of philosophy in particular in the years 1947-1959 and whose effects are still felt today. McCumber argues outward from the particularly egregious example of how philosophy came to be taught at UCLA during this period to discussions of the rise of analytic philosophy, rational choice theory, and reductionistic theories of the stratified science...

Pleasure in Ancient Greek Philosophy pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:David Wolfsdorf Published on 2013 by Cambridge University Press Download The Key Themes in Ancient Philosophy series provides concise books, written by major scholars and accessible to non-specialists, on important themes in ancient philosophy that remain of philosophical interest today. In this volume Professor Wolfsdorf undertakes the first exploration of ancient Greek philosophical conceptions of pleasure in relation to contemporary conceptions. He provides broad coverage of the ancient material, from pre-Platonic to Old Stoic treatments; and, in the contemporary period, from World War II to the present. Examination of the nature of pleasure in ancient philosophy largely occurred within ethical contexts but in the contemporary period has, to a greater extent, been pursued within philosophy of mind and psychology. This divergence reflects the dominant philosophical preoccupations of the times. But Professor Wolfsdorf ...

Lectures on the Philosophy of World History pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel,Hugh Barr Nisbet,Duncan Forbes Published on 1975 by Cambridge University Press Download An English translation of Hegel's introduction to his lectures on the philosophy of history, based directly on the standard German edition by Johannes Hoffmeister, first published in 1955. The previous English translation, by J. Sibree, first appeared in 1857 and was based on the defective German edition of Karl Hegel, to which Hoffmeister's edition added a large amount of new material previously unknown to English readers, derived from earlier editors. In the introduction to his lectures, Hegel lays down the principles and aims which underlie his philosophy of history, and provides an outline of the philosophy of history itself. The comprehensive and voluminous survey of world history which followed the introduction in the original lectures is of less interest to students of Hegel's t...
