For the Sake of Argument: Practical Reasoning, Character, and the Ethics of Belief
ISBN: 9780226283975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What role does reason play in our lives? What role should it play? And are claims to rationality liberating or oppressive? "For the Sake of Argument" addresses questions such as these to consider the relationship between thought and character. Eugene Garver brings Aristotle's Rhetoric to bear on practical reasoning to show how the value of such thinking emerges when members of communities deliberate together, persuade each other, and are persuaded by each other. That is to say, when they argue.
Garver roots deliberation and persuasion in political friendship instead of a neutral,... What role does reason play in our lives? What role should it play? And are claims to rationality liberating or oppressive? "For the Sake of Argument" ...

Aristotle's Rhetoric: An Art of Character
ISBN: 9780226284255 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this contribution to philosophy and rhetoric, Eugene Garver shows how Aristotle integrates logic and virtue in his treatise, the Rhetoric. Garver argues that Aristotle raises and answers a central question: can there be a civic art of rhetoric, an art that forms the character of citizens? By demonstrating the importance of the Rhetoric for understanding current philosophical problems of practical reason, virtue and character, Garver treats the Rhetoric as philosophy and connects its themes with parallel problems in Aristotle's Ethics and Politics.
