The Other Bishop Berkeley: An Exercise in Reenchantment

Více o knize

Exploring the philosophical roots of the 18th-century thinker, the book delves into Berkeley's lesser-known interests, including alchemy and utopian visions. It reveals him as a figure deeply influenced by Platonic and mystical traditions, who viewed philosophy as a path to salvation. Costica Bradatan's analysis aims to present a more nuanced and profound understanding of Berkeley, moving beyond conventional interpretations and appealing to scholars across diverse fields such as philosophy, literature, and critical theory.
