Philosophy Unmasked
Author: Laurie Calhoun
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
A scathing critique of analytic philosophy contending that philosophy is a subjective enterprise and snubbing its nose at all first-order philosophical theories. Biting the hand that feeds her, Calhoun (philosophy, State U. of New York) advances a metaphilosophical theory, arguing that academia discourages skepticism among students, excludes non-philosophers from dialogue, and perpetuates a false notion of philosophical "proof" which renders contemporary philosophy inaccessible and of little relevance to human life. She bolsters her criticism with references to Richard Rorty and is clear as a bell in her polemics. This volume will surely upset stomachs in the ivory tower.

Sperone Speroni and the Debate over Sophistry in the Italian Renaissance
Author: Teodoro Katinis
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004354735
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
In Sperone Speroni and the Debate over Sophistry in the Italian Renaissance Teodoro Katinis mines a number of little or unstudied primary sources and offers the first book on the rebirth of ancient sophists in the Italian literature of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, from Leonardo Bruni to Jacopo Mazzoni, with a focus on the Italian writer and philosopher Sperone Speroni (1500-1588). Katinis convincingly argues that Speroni is a unique case of an early modern thinker who explicitly rejected Plato’s demonization and defended the public role of the sophistic rhetoric, which enhanced the debate over the sophistic arts and scepticism in a variety of fields and anticipated some of the most revolutionary modern thoughts.
