The Possibilities of Sense
Author: Dewi Zephaniah Phillips
Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan
ISBN: 9780333971499
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
This volume testifies to a remarkable philosopher. In essays on ethics and the philosophy of religion, on literature and education, the contributors display not only the breadth of D.Z. Phillips's work but also its power. This power comes largely from Ludwig Wittgenstein, whose significance as a moral and religious philosopher rivals his reputation as a philosopher of language. Phillips, more than anyone else, has taught us to appreciate Wittgenstein in this sense and this book recognizes the importance of them both. Some of the essays which it contains speak directly to Phillips's work, some do not. But they all announce the fact that a Wittgensteinian now Phillipsian approach has long since earned its place in the history of philosophy.

Merleau-Ponty and the Possibilities of Philosophy
Author: Bernard Flynn
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438426917
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Maurice Merleau-Ponty is arguably the preeminent French philosopher of the last century, and interest in his thought is growing exponentially. This volume celebrates and interrogates the thought of Merleau-Ponty by drawing upon both classic and state-of-the-art assessments, some available in English here for the first time. The result is an essential collection of essays that explore Merleau-Ponty's importance in terms of his originality vis-à-vis the philosophical tradition, and examine his major insights about such contemporary concerns as subjectivity, the question of the other and sociality, the natural and the human, art, the sensible and the intelligible, and the philosophical study of language. Penetrating and illuminating, these essays firmly install Merleau-Ponty among the most innovative and critically debated thinkers of the past half century.

The Possibilities

Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1476725810
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Descendants—a “funny, insightful, and unsentimental” (People, 4 stars) novel about a grieving mother and the shocking surprise that may help her reclaim her hold on life. In the idyllic ski town of Breckenridge, Colorado, Sarah St. John is reeling. Three months ago, her twenty-two-year-old son, Cully, died in an avalanche. Sarah’s father, a retiree, tries to distract her from her grief with gadgets from the home shopping channel. Sarah’s best friend offers life advice by venting details of her own messy divorce. Even Cully’s father reemerges, stirring more emotions and confusion than Sarah needs. But Sarah feels she is facing the stages of grief—the anger, the sadness, the letting go—alone; she desperately wants to hear the swoosh of her son’s ski pants, or watch him skateboard past her window. And one day a strange girl arrives on her doorstep. Unexpected and unexplained, she bears a secret from Cully that could change all of their lives forever. With wry wit and intuition, Kaui Hart Hemmings highlights the subtle poignancies of grief and relationships in this stunning look at people faced with impossible choices. Called “surprisingly entertaining” (The New York Times Book Review) and “familiar yet richly, astutely observant and reflective” (The Boston Globe), The Possibilities brilliantly portrays tragic ineffability with grace and hope.
