First published in essay form in 1956, this book presents Sellars' entire philosophical system and his attack on the Myth of the Given, which raised doubts about the very idea of epistemology. An introduction situates the work within the history of recent philosophy.
Wilfrid Sellars Knihy
20. květen 1912 – 2. červenec 1989
Wilfrid Sellars byl americký filozof, který se proslavil kritikou základy epistemologie. Jeho ambicí bylo sladit intuitivní pohledy na svět s vědeckým naturalistickým pojetím reality. Sellars mistrně propojoval prvky amerického pragmatismu, britské a americké analytické filozofie a logického pozitivismu s německou tradicí transcendentálního idealismu. Jeho dílo je ceněno pro svou argumentační propracovanost a snahu o syntézu.
Science and Metaphysics contains Sellars' John Locke Lectures. Besides considerable attention to doctrines of Kant's, Sellars presents "in systematic form the views I have developed and modified in paper after paper over the past twenty years."
This book is a collection of essays by the American philosopher Wilfrid Sellars. These essays are from the late 1950s and early 1960s and concern topics in metaphysics and epistemology.
