Pragmatism, Old And New: Selected Writings,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Morris R. Cohen once described pragmatism as 'a philosophy for people who cannot think'; and Bertrand Russell feared that pragmatism would lead philosophy into 'cosmic impiety.' Nothing could be further from the truth. Pragmatism was one of the most fruitful philosophical movements of the late nineteenth century, and has continued to be a significant influence on some of the major figures in philosophy F. P. Ramsey, W. V. Quine, Sidney Hook, Nelson Goodman, Hilary Putnam, and many others.Today some even speak of a remarkable renaissance of pragmatism. Very often, though, what they have in mind is not the rich heritage of the classical pragmatist tradition, but a radical selfstyled neopragmatism that has of late transmuted the reformist aspirations of classical pragmatism into a kind of revolutionary antiintellectualism a radical neopragmatism that seems to confirm Russell's worst fears.Asking what we can learn from the older pragmatist tradition, and what we can salvage from the intellectual shipwreck of the new, Susan Haack, with the assistance of Robert Lane, has put together a wideranging anthology that tells the story of the evolution of pragmatism from its origins in C. S. Peirce's hopes of making philosophy more scientific and William James's of 'unstiffening our theories,' to the radical literarypolitical neopragmatism recently popularized by Richard Rorty. Opening with a history of pragmatism from its inception to the present day, and closing with Haack's famous 'interview' with Peirce and Rorty, the book presents a broad and diverse selection of pragmatist writings classical and contemporary, reformist and revolutionary on logic, metaphysics, theory of inquiry, philosophy of mind, philosophy of religion, aesthetics, philosophy of education, and moral, social, and political philosophy.
