Pragmatism, Pluralism, and the Nature of Philosophy: Routledge Studies in American Philosophy

Autor Scott F. Aikin, Robert B. Talisse
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 aug 2020
For the past fifteen years, Aikin and Talisse have been working collaboratively on a new vision of American pragmatism, one which sees pragmatism as a living and developing philosophical idiom that originates in the work of the "classical" pragmatisms of Charles Peirce, William James, and John Dewey, uninterruptedly develops through the later 20th Century pragmatists (C. I. Lewis, Wilfrid Sellars, Nelson Goodman, W. V. O. Quine), and continues through the present day. According to Aikin and Talisse, pragmatism is fundamentally a metaphilosophical proposal – a methodological suggestion for carrying inquiry forward amidst ongoing deep disagreement over the aims, limitations, and possibilities of philosophy. This conception of pragmatism not only runs contrary to the dominant self-understanding among cotemporary philosophers who identify with the classical pragmatists, it also holds important implications for pragmatist philosophy. In particular, Aikin and Talisse show that their version of pragmatism involves distinctive claims about epistemic justification, moral disagreement, democratic citizenship, and the conduct of inquiry. The chapters combine detailed engagements with the history and development of pragmatism with original argumentation aimed at a philosophical audience beyond pragmatism.

Descriere

Since the publication of their first co-authored article in 2005, Scott F. Aikin and Robert B. Talisse have argued for a distinctive, yet controversial, version of pragmatism. This book sets out for the first time a cohesive, unified, and integrated statement on Aikin and Talisse’s distinctive strand of pragmatist philosophy.
