On Reduplication: Logical Theories of Qualification
ISBN: 9789004105393 / Angielski / Twarda / 568 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. On Reduplication is a study of the logical properties of reduplicative propositions, that is, of propositions having qualifications, like 'Christ qua God is a creature' and 'being qua being is the subject of metaphysics'. The focus is on what ways qualifications change the truth value and the inference patterns of simple, categorical propositions. The central class of reduplications is that in which the qualifications are introduced by a qua connective like 'qua', 'insofar as', 'under the concept of', or 'in virtue of the fact that'. Reduplicative propositions...

Forms of Life and Following Rules: A Wittgensteinian Defence of Relativism
ISBN: 9789004105409 / Angielski / Twarda / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study defends a version of epistemological relativism, taking as its point of departure some key arguments from the later work of Ludwig Wittgenstein - especially those concerning rule following and forms of life.
An opposition is established between the dominant form of epistemological realism - that which relies upon 'truth-conditions'- and theories in which knowledge and truth are fundamentally dependent upon context. It is argued in Part One that Wittgenstein proves the necessity for a contextual understanding of knowledge. Part Two develops a clearer idea of that context, using...

Dialectic and Theology in the Eleventh Century:
ISBN: 9789004105775 / Angielski / Twarda / 171 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The study provides a reappraisal of the controversy over the value of logic in theology in the eleventh century, which has for a long time been a theme central to the historiography of early medieval thought.
In the four chapters of the work the author gives close exegesis of the central texts by Peter Damian, Lanfranc of Bec, Berengar of Tours and Anselm of Canterbury respectively and argues that the familiar ways of describing the theme are thoroughly misleading. Damian's 'anti-dialectical' attitude is less extreme than often claimed. Lanfranc's reputation as a dialectician is largely...

This engaging, wide-ranging study in comparative social and political philosophy gives a well-argued account of how ideological and even utopian views, such as normative communication, development and justice, are sociologically rooted.

Einheit ALS Prinzip Und Ziel: Versuch Über Die Einheitsmetaphysik Des Opus Tripartitum Meister Eckharts
ISBN: 9789004109056 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study attempts a reconstruction of the philosophy of the unfinished Opus tripartitum of Meister Eckhart. One new feature is the 'hermeneutic approach' to the question of Eckhart's philosophy, another is the recognition that the concept of Unity plays a decisive role in the organisation of his metaphysics, to the extent, indeed, that one can speak of a metaphysics of the One. Eckhart's metaphysics is determined to a contemplation of the divine, which in this thinking of Unity is understood as the principle and end of all things. Yet, at the same time Eckhart's thinking of Unity...

ISBN: 9789004110007 / Angielski / Twarda / 484 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Building bridges between Asian and Western philosophies, Kuang-ming Wu provides a novel approach to the "self-other" issue, casting it in terms of togetherness. On the "Logic" of Togetherness is a natural sequel to On Chinese Body Thinking (Brill, 1997). It is an essay on a cultural hermeneutics of togetherness, and of the homo-ecological community of differences, cultural and otherwise.

Logik und Theologie: Das Organon im arabischen und im lateinischen Mittelalter
ISBN: 9789004111189 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 514 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The reception of the Aristotelian Organon in the Arabic and Latin Middle Ages sparked a lively debate about the problematic relationship between logic and theology. On the one hand, theology faced new logical theories and methods of argumentation; on the other hand, logic was to provide explanatory models and techniques for the analysis of theological problems. The contributions in this volume discuss this twofold challenge on the basis of key texts and authors, ranging from early Islamic theology to the Christian later Middle Ages. The volume includes contributions by Cornelia Schock,...

Sinne, Gegenstände Und Sensibilia: Zur Wahrnehmungslehre Des Thomas Von Aquin
ISBN: 9789004114104 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Thomas Aquinas' theory of knowledge has mainly been studied from the point of view of his theory of intellect. However, one of the constituent elements of such a theory has been widely neglected: perception. This work tries to disentangle the different aspects of Aquinas' theory. First, the causes of perception are looked at, including analyses on the physics of perception. Secondly, the psychology of perceptual knowledge and the theory of sensibles are explored, and thirdly, the importance of the perceptual apparatus is sketched by stressing the role of the outer and inner senses in the...

Aristotle's Meteorology in the Arabico-Latin Tradition: A Critical Edition of the Texts, with Introduction and Indexes

The Greek text of Aristotle's Meteorology is in places highly problematic. Its edition by Fobes (1922), however, is a highlight in editorial technique.

The present edition was done on the basis of the two extant Arabic manuscripts. The edition of the Latin translation (12th c.) from the Arabic has been constituted on the basis of 5 manuscript sources,...

The Soul and Its Instrumental Body: A Reinterpretation of Aristotle's Philosophy of Living Nature
ISBN: 9789004130166 / Angielski / Twarda / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For more than 1800 years it has been supposed that Aristotle viewed the soul as the entelechy of the visible body which is 'equipped with organs'. This book argues that in actual fact he saw the soul as the entelechy of a natural body 'that serves as its instrument'. This correction puts paid to W. Jaeger's hypothesis of a three-phase development in Aristotle. The author of this book defends the unity of Aristotle's philosophy of living nature in De anima, in the biological treatises, and in the lost dialogues. Aristotle should therefore be regarded as the author of the notion of the 'vehicle...
