Forms of Life and Language Games
ISBN: 9783110321593 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ludwig Wittgenstein's writings inspired contemporary philosophical thinking and advanced many issues that had been addressed by traditional philosophy. The questions raised by the Viennese philosopher initiated debates on a reconsideration of philosophical terminology. This is especially true for a term that has generated at least three significant controversies since its creation and will probably generate more disputes in the following years. It is the expression "form(s) of life" which translates into German as "Lebensform(en)" and "Form des Lebens." The present volume contains...

Doubt, Ethics and Religion: Wittgenstein and the Counter-Enlightenment
ISBN: 9783110321586 / Angielski / Twarda / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores Wittgenstein's conception of ethics, religion and philosophy. It aims at providing us with the tools necessary for assessing to what extent the Austrian philosopher can be considered an anti-Enlightenment thinker.

One of the central issues examined here is Wittgenstein's opposition to the Cartesian method of doubt - a... This book explores Wittgenstein's conception of ethics, religion and philosophy.

The Arrow and the Point: Russell and Wittgenstein's Tractatus
ISBN: 9783110323917 / Angielski / Twarda / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book aims at a comprehensive account of the relationship between Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus and Russell's philosophy as it developed between 1903 and 1918. The focus is on the central nucleus of the Tractatus, i.e., on its ontology and the picture theory of language. On Russell's side, the multiple-relation theory of judgment has been chosen as the leading theme around which the presentation of several other issues is organized. Whereas the similarity between Russell's and Wittgenstein's problems is pointed out, the deep difference between their solutions is...

This work advances a theory in the metaphysics of phenomenal consciousness, which the author labels "e-physicalism." Firstly, he endorses a realist stance towards consciousness and physicalist metaphysics.

War After Death: On Violence and Its Limits
ISBN: 9780823256778 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. War after Death considers forms of violence that regularly occur in actual wars but do not often factor into the stories we tell about war, which revolve invariably around killing and death. Recent history demonstrates that body counts are more necessary than ever, but the fact remains that war and death is only part of the story--an essential but ultimately subordinate part. Beyond killing, there is no war without attacks upon the built environment, ecosystems, personal property, artworks, archives, and intangible traditions. Destructive as it may be, such violence is difficult to classify...

Being Nude: The Skin of Images
ISBN: 9780823256211 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What does it mean to be nude? What does the nude do? In a series of constantly surprising reflections, Jean-Luc Nancy and Federico Ferrari encounter the nude as an opportunity for thinking in a way that is stripped bare of all received meanings and preconceived forms. In the course of engagements with twenty-six separate images, the authors show how the nudes produced by painters and photographers expose this bareness of thought and leave us naked on the verge of a sense that is always nascent, always fleeting, on the surface of the skin, on the surface of the image. While the nude is a...

Davidsons semantisches Programm und deflationäre Wahrheitskonzeptionen
ISBN: 9783110323900 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Wahrheitstheorien sind ein zentraler Bestandteil von Davidsons semantischem Programm zur Erklarung von Interpretation. Deflationare Wahrheitskonzeptionen hingegen schreiben dem Wahrheitspradikat eine minimale explanatorische Funktion zu. Die Frage der Vereinbarkeit dieser beiden Positionen bildet den Kern dieser Untersuchung. Eine Antwort wird durch eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit Unvereinbarkeitsargumenten und durch eine systematische Betrachtung der Funktion eines deflationaren Wahrheitspradikats anhand von axiomatischen Wahrheitstheorien gegeben. Letztlich wird dafur argumentiert,... Wahrheitstheorien sind ein zentraler Bestandteil von Davidsons semantischem Programm zur Erklarung von Interpretation. Deflationare Wahrheitskonzep... |

"Participation in the Munstersche Vorlesungen zur Philosophie 2005 was an honor and a genuine intellectual pleasure for me. The symposium, with all its contributions by the Munster faculty and students, was a wonderfully valuable experience. I can hardly do justice to its spirit of free discussion, or adequately express my thanks, by these short replies. But I think that they will testify clearly to the stimulation the symposium provided and to how much I learned from this exchange."

Epistemic Pragmatism and Other Studies in the Theory of Knowledge
ISBN: 9783110318920 / Angielski / Twarda / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The core of pragmatism lies in the concept of functional efficacy-of utility in short. And epistemic pragmatism accordingly focuses on the utility of our devices and practices in relation to the aims and purposes of the cognitive enterprise-answering questions, resolving puzzlement, guiding action. The present book revolves around this theme. All papers in this book bear on epistemological topics which have preoccupied Nicholas Rescher for many years. Much as with the thematic structure of this book, this interest expanded from an initial concern with the exact sciences, to encompass the...
