Archaeology of Early Buddhism
ISBN: 9780759107496 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. How do archaeologists explore the various dimensions of religion? Lars Fogelin uses archaeological work at Thotlakonda in Southern India as his lens in a broader examination of Buddhist monastic life. He discovers the tension between the desired isolation of the monastery and the mutual engagement with neighbors in the Early Historic Period. He also sketches how religious architectural design and use of landscape helped to shaped these relationships.

Hume's Presence in the Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion
ISBN: 9780190673505 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why did David Hume feel so deeply about publishing The Dialouges Concerning Natural Religion that he set aside funds in his will providing for its posthumous publication? Part of the answer is that it provided a literary, satirical work responding to his mean-spirited theological critics. In Hume's Presence Robert Fogelin provides a textual analysis that demonstrates the close relationship of The Dialogues with his central philosophical writings and its centrality to his relationship with skepticism. A striking feature of The Dialogues is that...

Walking the Tightrope of Reason: The Precarious Life of a Rational Animal
ISBN: 9780195177541 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Human beings are both supremely rational and deeply superstitious, capable of believing just about anything and of questioning just about everything. Indeed, just as our reason demands that we know the truth, our skepticism leads to doubts we can ever really do so.
In Walking the Tightrope of Reason, Robert J. Fogelin guides readers through a contradiction that lies at the very heart of philosophical inquiry. Fogelin argues that our rational faculties insist on a purely rational account of the universe, yet at the same time, the inherent limitations of these faculties ensure that we will...

A Defense of Hume on Miracles
ISBN: 9780691122434 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 101 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since its publication in the mid-eighteenth century, Hume's discussion of miracles has been the target of severe and often ill-tempered attacks. In this book, one of our leading historians of philosophy offers a systematic response to these attacks. Arguing that these criticisms have--from the very start--rested on misreadings, Robert Fogelin begins by providing a narrative of the way Hume's argument actually unfolds. What Hume's critics (and even some of his defenders) have failed to see is that Hume's primary argument depends on fixing the appropriate standards of evaluating...

Pyrrhonian Reflections on Knowledge and Justification
ISBN: 9780195089875 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This work, written from a neo-Pyrrhonian perspective, is an examination of contemporary theories of knowledge and justification. It takes ideas primarily found in Sextus Empiricus's Outlines of Pyrrhonism, restates them in a modern idiom, and then asks whether any contemporary theory of knowledge meets the challenges they raise. The first part, entitled "Gettier and the Problem of Knowledge," attempts to rescue our ordinary concept of knowledge from those philosophers who have assigned burdens to it that it cannot bear. Properly understood, Fogelin shows that the concept of knowledge...

Philosophical Interpretations
ISBN: 9780195071627 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Fogelin here collects fifteen of his essays, organized around the theme of interpreting philosophical texts. The essays place particular emphasis on understanding the argumentative or dialectical role that passages play in the specific context in which they occur. The somewhat surprising result of taking this principle seriously is that certain traditional, well-worked texts are given a radical re-interpretation. Throughout the essays reprinted here, Fogelin argues that, when carefully read, the philosophical position under consideration has more merit than commonly believed. Included...

Figuratively Speaking: Revised Edition
ISBN: 9780199739998 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this updated edition of his brief, engaging book, Robert J. Fogelin examines figures of speech that concern meaning--irony, hyperbole, understatement, similes, metaphors, and others--to show how they work and to explain their attraction. Building on the ideas of Grice and Tversky, Fogelin contends that figurative language derives its power from its insistence that the reader participate in the text, looking beyond the literal meaning of the figurative language to the meanings that are implied. With examples ranging from Shakespeare, John Donne, and Jane Austen to e.e. cummings, Bessie...

Hume's Skeptical Crisis: A Textual Study
ISBN: 9780195387391 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Hume's Skeptical Crisis Robert Fogelin provides a textual study of the changes in perspective that emerged as Hume pursued his attempt to introduce the experimental method of reasoning into moral subjects--the subtitle of the Treatise of Human of Nature. In the process of giving an account of the operations of the human mind, Hume discovered that the mechanisms that create and sustain our beliefs are deeply unreliable and, in fact, capricious in their operations. Hume's crisis emerged when he recognized that the weaknesses that he ascribed to the operations of the human...
