Descartes Reinvented

Autor Tom Sorell
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 iul 2005
In this study, Tom Sorell seeks to rehabilitate views that are often instantly dismissed in analytic philosophy. His book serves as a reinterpretation of Cartesianism and responds directly to the dislike of Descartes in contemporary philosophy. To identify what is defensible in Cartesianism, Sorell starts with a picture of unreconstructed Cartesianism, which is characterized as realistic, antisceptical but respectful of scepticism, rationalist, centered on the first person, dualist, and dubious of the comprehensiveness of natural science and its supposed independence of metaphysics. Bridging the gap between history of philosophy and analytic philosophy, Sorell also shows for the first time how some contemporary analytic philosophy is deeply Cartesian, despite its outward hostility to Cartesianism.

Recenzii

"Sorrell's interpretations are careful and, by and large, sound, given the intention with which they are offered. Were one of my historicophobic colleagues to ask why Descartes...should be worth studying, I would, without misgivings, direct him to Descarte Reinvented." - Dennis Des Chene, Washington University in Saint Louis
