One of the greatest philosophers of the 19th century, Hegel (1770-1831) has influenced the direction of subsequent thought, in Europe and elsewhere.

Thomas Hobbes : Critical Assessments
ISBN: 9780415020046 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Thomas Hobbes is arguably one of the greatest of all English philosophers. In the second half of the 20th century, he has been subject to sustained critical attention. He was capable of powerful argument on virtually any plane, whether logical, scriptural or historical. And he has attracted attention in all these areas and more - to do with questions of historical method, language and linguistics, metaphysics, ethics, law, politics, science and religion. Hobbes has been attended to from a great variety of perspectives - as an ethical positivist and a deontologist, as a bourgeois advocate and...

George Berkeley : Critical Assessments
ISBN: 9780415020923 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the past 30 years Berkeley scholars and commentators have produced articles and books on almost every aspect and feature of Berkeley's work. There is, however, hardly any central aspect of Berkeley's theories about which commentators might be said to be in agreement: but it is not difficult to identify several kinds of dialectical development. Since the debate shows no signs of abating, it should be useful to the students of Berkeley to have a collection of the more significant articles in a convenient form, particularly since many of the recent articles are scattered over some 50 or...

In Jacques Derrida: Opening Lines, Marian Hobson gives us a thorough and elegant analysis of this controversial and seminal contemporary thinker.

Altogether, there are well over 100 detailed analyses and discussions of numerous salient aspects of Descartes' promethean legacy.

Being a Philosopher: The History of a Practice
ISBN: 9780415029681 / Angielski / Twarda / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Philosophers often find that the response I am a philosopher when given in reply to the question What do you do? produces a puzzled silence. The puzzle is not one simply about the nature of philosophical thought, it is one about what philosophers actually do. David Hamlyn's account considers the history of the practice of philosophy or of philosophy considered as an institution. Being a Philosopher examines the main trends of that practice and how philosophers have been regarded at different times. The Greek philosophical schools provided the first professional philosophers. While philosophy...

The Immaterial Self: A Defence of the Cartesian Dualist Conception of the Mind
ISBN: 9780415029896 / Angielski / Twarda / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dualism argues that the mind is more than just the brain. It holds that there exists two very different realms, one mental and the other physical. Both are fundamental and one cannot be reduced to the other - there are minds and there is a physical world. This book examines and defends the most famous dualist account of the mind, the cartesian, which attributes the immaterial contents of the mind to an immaterial self.
John Foster's new book exposes the inadequacies of the dominant materialist and reductionist accounts of the mind. In doing so he is in radical conflict with the current...

ISBN: 9780415030946 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The effects of Derrida's writings have been widespread in literary circles, where they have transformed current work in literary theory. By contrast Derrida's philosophical writings--which deal with the whole range of western thought from Plato to Foucault--have not received adequate attention by philosophers. Organized around Derrida's readings of major figures in the history of philosophy, Derrida and Deconstruction focuses on and assesses his specifically philosophical contribution. Contemporary continental philosophers assess Derrida's account...

Ernst Bloch is perhaps best known for his subtle and imaginative investigation of utopias and utopianism, but his work also provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of western culture, politics and society.

Best known for his work The Postmodern Condition, Jean-Francois Lyotard is one of the leading figures in contemporary French philosophy. This collection of articles offers an estimation and critique of his work. While the various chapters deal with different aspects of Lyotard's writings, they are all concerned with the question of judgement. The importance to Lyotard of judgement, and how it is to be judged, is a recurrent theme throughout the entire range of his work.

John Dewey : Critical Assessments
ISBN: 9780415053167 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the first half of the century, John Dewey's highly original philosophy exerted an important influence on both academic philosophy and educational thinking in the United States. Between the two World Wars he acquired a national reputation as a political thinker and activist, which has not since been matched. Although his academic influence began to wane with the rise of his career as a political journalist and his reputation was almost totally eclipsed after his death in 1952, a revival of interest in Dewey's work has recently taken place. The on-going assessment and appropriation of a...

Introducing Lyotard: Art and Politics
ISBN: 9780415055369 / Angielski / Miękka / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The first truly introductory text on Lyotard, this book situates Lyotard's interventions in the postmodern debate in the wider context of his rethinking of the politics of representation. Bill Readings examines Lyotard's relationship to structuralism, Marxism and semiotics, and contrasts his work with the literary deconstruction of Paul de Man; he positions Lyotard's work so as to draw out the implications of poststructurlaism's attention to difference in reading. Lyotard's willingness to question the political and examine the relationship between art and politics is shown to...
