Cloth with dustjacket. Zustand: Gut. 207 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - leicht berieben, Schutzumschlag leicht ausgeblichen, sonst guter Zustand / slightly rubbed, dust jacket slightly faded, otherwise good condition. - In the most powerful and persuasive image in Western philosophical literature, Plato had Socrates compare our condition to that of prisoners fettered in a cave. Through this well-known allegory, Plato identified ignorance with enslavement and cast philosophy in the role of liberatoras that which provided the way out of shadows into reality, falsehood into truth, the contingent and changing into the necessary and eternal. By linking the virtuous life with the life of reason, he established the place of philosophy in culture and its importance for practical affairs. This view of philosophy was opposed by the Pyrrhonian skeptics, who questioned the possibility of knowledge in order to oppose the claim that knowledge could bring happiness. Pyrrhonian skepticism, then, was an essentially moral position that called the Platonic conception of philosophy into question in order to bring about a tranquil and untroubled acceptance of the contingency and fallibility of common life. The skeptical tradition since the seventeenth century has lost this moral point and has gradually become identified with a fairly narrow and technical set of epistemological issues. In Philosophy in Question, David R. Hiley returns to the Pyrrhonian skeptics to recover the purpose of skepticism and recast it in terms of what he calls the Pyrrhonian challenge. The challenge is this: If the traditional conception of the role of reason and philosophy is rejected, how can this skepticism about philosophy avoid resulting in an uncritical, conservative acquiescence in the traditional and customary beliefs and values of common life? Within the contingent and fallible conditions of common life, is it possible to take a reflective and critical stand toward these beliefs and values? In recovering the moral thrust of the Pyrrhonian skeptical tradition and working it out historically through Montaigne, Hume, and Rousseau, as well as the Enlightenment response to it, Hiley argues that this challenge has to be recast in the twentieth century and interprets recent controversies about rationality, the relation of power and knowledge, and critiques of modernity in its terms.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Arguably the most influential of all contemporary English-speaking philosophers, Richard Rorty has transformed the way many inside and outside philosophy think about the discipline and the traditional ways of practising it. Drawing on a wide range of thinkers from Darwin and James to Quine, Wittgenstein, Heidegger and Derrida, Rorty has injected a bold anti-foundationalist vision into philosophical debate, into discussions in literary theory, communication studies, political theory and education, and, as public intellectual, into national debates about the responsibilities of America in the modern world. The essays in this volume offer a balanced exposition and critique of Rorty's views on knowledge, language, truth, science, morality and politics. The editorial introduction presents a valuable overview of Rorty's philosophical vision. Written by a distinguished team of philosophers, this volume will have an unusual appeal outside philosophy to students in the social sciences, literary studies, cultural studies and political theory.
