Philosophy as Cultural Politics

Více o knize

Exploring the evolving role of philosophy in Western culture, this collection of Richard Rorty's philosophical papers delves into significant themes such as the imagination's impact on moral and intellectual progress, the concept of moral identity, and the linguistic nature of philosophical problems as proposed by Wittgenstein. Rorty critiques the relevance of cognitive science to philosophy and challenges the notion that philosophers must locate consciousness and moral values within a physical framework. This volume is a thought-provoking resource for those deeply engaged in philosophical discourse and its cultural implications.
