On Philosophy and Philosophers is a volume of unpublished philosophical papers by Richard Rorty, a central figure in late-twentieth-century intellectual debates and a primary force behind the resurgence of American pragmatism. The first collection of new work to appear since his death in 2007, these previously unseen papers advance novel views on metaphysics, ethics, epistemology, philosophical semantics and the social role of philosophy, critically engaging canonical and contemporary figures from Plato and Kant to Kripke and Brandom. This book' s diverse offerings, which include technical essays written for specialists and popular lectures, refine our understanding of Rorty' s perspective and demonstrate the ongoing relevance of the iconoclastic American philosopher' s ground-breaking thought. An introduction by the editors highlights the papers' original insights and contributions to contemporary debates.
Richard Rorty (1931-2007) was Professor of Philosophy and Comparative Literature at Stanford University, California. W. P. Malecki is Assistant Professor of Literary Theory at the University of Wroclaw, Poland. Chris Voparil teaches political theory and philosophy at Union Institute & University, Cincinnati.
