商品描述

The essays collected in this volume and authored by Sami Pihlström emphasize that our relation to the world we live in and seek to represent and get to know better through our practices of conceptualization and inquiry is irreducibly valuational. There is no way of even approaching, let alone resolving, the philosophical issue of realism without drawing due attention to the ways in which human values are inextricably entangled with even the most purely "factual" projects of inquiry we engage in.

This entanglement of the factual and the normative is, as explicitly argued in Chapter 7 but implicitly suggested in all the other chapters as well, both pragmatic (practice-embedded and practice-involving) and transcendental (operating at the level of the necessary conditions for the possibility of our representing and cognizing the world in general). The author claims we need to carefully examine the complex relations of realism, value, and transcendental arguments at the intersection of pragmatism and analytic philosophy. This book does so by offering case-studies of various important neopragmatists and philosophers close to the pragmatist tradition, including Hilary Putnam, Nicholas Rescher, Joseph Margolis, and Ludwig Wittgenstein. It appeals to scholars and advanced graduate students focusing on pragmatism and analytic philosophy.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書收錄了Sami Pihlström所撰寫的文章,強調我們與我們所生活在其中並試圖透過概念化和探究來更好地理解和代表的世界之間的關係是不可分割的價值關係。在我們從事純粹的「事實」探究項目時,人類價值與之緊密相連,這一點需要引起充分的關注,甚至無法接近,更不用說解決現實主義的哲學問題。

如第7章明確論證,以及其他所有章節中隱含的暗示,事實和規範的交織既是實用主義(嵌入實踐和涉及實踐)的,也是超驗的(在一般情況下運作,作為我們代表和認識世界的必要條件)。作者主張,我們需要仔細研究現實主義、價值和超驗論證在實用主義和分析哲學交叉點的複雜關係。本書通過提供各種重要的新實用主義者和接近實用主義傳統的哲學家(包括Hilary Putnam、Nicholas Rescher、Joseph Margolis和Ludwig Wittgenstein)的案例研究來實現這一目標。它適用於專注於實用主義和分析哲學的學者和高級研究生。
