Levinas and James – Toward a Pragmatic Phenomenology: American Philosophy

Autor Megan Craig
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 oct 2010
Bringing to light new facets in the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas and William James, Megan Craig explores intersections between French phenomenology and American pragmatism. Craig demonstrates the radical empiricism of Levinas’s philosophy and the ethical implications of James’s pluralism while illuminating their relevance for two philosophical disciplines that have often held each other at arm’s length. Revealing the pragmatic minimalism in Levinas’s work and the centrality of imagery in James’s prose, she suggests that aesthetic links are crucial to understanding what they share. Craig’s suggestive readings change current perceptions and clear a path for a more open, pluralistic, and creative pragmatic phenomenology that takes cues from both philosophers.

Recenzii

"[T]he volume contributes in an important way to the greatly needed realization that the boundaries between philosophical traditions need not be as sharp as they are sometimes thought to be—and makes, with Levinas and James, the even more vital point that ethics should return to the center of our philosophical projects." —Transactions of the Charles S. Peirce Society

"In bringing together the work of Levinas and William James, it opens a new discussion in the scholarship of both." John Lysaker, Emory University

"Thoughtful, imaginative, and probing." Vincent Colapietro, Pennsylvania State University
