Cartesian Nightmare: An Introduction to Transcendental Sophistry de Peter A. Redpath

Cartesian Nightmare: An Introduction to Transcendental Sophistry: Value Inquiry Book Series / Studies in the History of Western Philosophy, cartea 41

Autor Peter A. Redpath
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 1996
This book challenges the presupposition among professional philosophers that René Descartes is the Father of Modern Philosophy. It demonstrates by intensive textual analysis of Descartes'sDiscourseandMeditationsthat he inaugurated a new type of sophistry rather than a new way of conducting philosophy. Transcendental Sophistry is a synthesis of Renaissance humanism and Christian theology, especially the theology of creation. This striking re-evaluation of the achievement of Descartes opens the history of Western philosophy to radical reinterpretation.

Recenzii

"Cartesian Nightmareis the first of three volumes constituting radical reinterpretation of the history of philosophy… suspenseful… an ingenious and trenchant analysis whereby Descartes is, as it were, put in his place…In the second and third volumes,Wisdom’s Odyssey: From Philosophy to Transcendental SophistryandMasquerade of the Dream Walkers: Prophetic Theology from the Cartesians to Hegel, Redpath fills in the historical outline he traced out in the first volume with amazing scope, erudition, and power." - in:The Review of Metaphysics52:4 (June 1999)
"…it is truly an intellectual delight to see a book written with philosophical acumen, passion, command of significant facts, skilled strategy, and a clearly stated goal. … Redpath’s case is of great importance, compelling attention by its urgency." - in:Contemporary Philosophy, Vol. XIX, No. 4 & 5
