Recenzii
In
their
characteristically
clear
style,
Sullivan
and
Pannier
give
an
account
of
the
nature
of
philosophy,
and
then
they
give
a
series
of
detailed
arguments
for
the
conclusion
that
philosophy
is
best
carried
out
in
dialogue
not
only
with
philosophers
contemporary
to
us,
but
also
with
the
philosophers
of
the
past.
Those
who
care
about
doing
philosophy,
or
who
care
about
teaching
it,
should
care
about
this
book.
No serious person thinks the the latest art or literature is the best because it is the most recent. Likewise we would not continue to read Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas and Kant unless their works continue to speak to us. But how can long-dead thinkers have anything to say to 21st century minds? Thomas Sullivan and Russell Pannier engage that question and in doing so illuminate the nature of philosophy, the perennial character of its questions and the need to bring past and present together in ways that illuminate each. Elegantly crafted their book is a pleasure and a provocation.
Sullivan and Panier argue convincingly that philosophers of the past are our partners. The gems of the philosophical past are not just historical relics, but can help us in our own search for answers to philosophical questions. This book will make you want to read more history!
Some philosophers (e.g., Kant, Wittgenstein) defend various philosophical positions, but argue that past philosophy is largely irrelevant to what they are doing. This book looks at a number of these positions and makes the case against the deniers that much of past philosophy is, after all, relevant to these discussions [.] It could be background reading for any course, such as one on Wittgenstein, wherein the subject has arrogantly dismissed philosophy's past.Summing Up:Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates and graduate students.
