Book Synopsis Lectures & Conversations on Aesthetics, Psychology, and Religious Belief by : Ludwig Wittgenstein
Download or read book Lectures & Conversations on Aesthetics, Psychology, and Religious Belief written by Ludwig Wittgenstein and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1966 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first thing to be said about this book is that nothing contained herein was written by Wittgenstein himself. The notes published here are not Wittgenstein's own lecture notes, but notes taken down by students, which he neither saw nor checked. It is even doubtful if he would have approved of their publication, as least in their present form. Since, however, they deal with topics only briefly touched upon in his other published writings, and since for some time they have been circulating privately, it was thought best to publish them in a form approved by their authors.

Book Synopsis Wittgenstein by : Ludwig Wittgenstein
Download or read book Wittgenstein written by Ludwig Wittgenstein and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-03-21 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1938 Wittgenstein delivered a short course of lectures on aesthetics to a small group of students at Cambridge. The present volume has been compiled from notes taken down at the time by three of the students: Rush Rhees, Yorick Smythies, and James Taylor. They have been supplemented by notes of conversations on Freud (to whom reference was made in the course on aesthetics) between Wittgenstein and Rush Rhees, and by notes of some lectures on religious belief. As very little is known of Wittgenstein's views on these subjects from his published works, these notes should be of considerable interest to students of contemporary philosophy. Further, their fresh and informal style should recommend Wittgenstein to those who find his Tractatus and Philosophical Investigations a little formidable.

Book Synopsis Lectures on the Philosophy of Art by : Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Download or read book Lectures on the Philosophy of Art written by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hegel gave lecture series on aesthetics or the philosophy of art in various university terms, but never published a book of his own on this topic. His student, H. G. Hotho, compiled auditors' transcripts from these separate lecture series and produced from them the three volumes on aesthetics in the standard edition of Hegel's collected works. Annemarie Gethmann-Siefert has now published one of these transcripts, the Hotho transcript of the 1823 lecture series, and accompanied it with a very extensive introductory essay treating many issues pertinent to a proper understanding of Hegel's views on art. She persuasively argues that the evidence shows Hegel never finalized his views on the philosophy of art, but modified them in significant ways from one lecture series to the next. In addition, she makes the case that Hotho's compilation not only concealed this circumstance, by the harmony he created out of diverse source materials, but also imposed some of his own views on aesthetics, views that differ from Hegel's and that the ongoing interpretation of the aesthetics part of Hegel's philosophy has unfortunately taken to be Hegel's own. This translation of the German volume, which contains the first publication of the Hotho transcript and Gethmann-Siefert's essay, makes these important materials accessible to the English reader, materials that should put the English-speaking world's future understanding and interpretation of Hegel's philosophy of art on a sounder footing.
Book Synopsis Faith and Philosophical Analysis by : Harriet A. Harris
Download or read book Faith and Philosophical Analysis written by Harriet A. Harris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-22 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What tensions arise between philosophy of religion and theology? What strengths and weaknesses of analytical methods emerge in relation to strongly confessional philosophical theologies, or to Continental philosophies? Faith and Philosophical Analysis evaluates how well philosophy of religion serves in understanding religious faith. Figures who rarely share the space of the same book - leading exponents of analytic philosophy of religion and those who question its legacy - are drawn together in this book, with their disagreements harnessed to positive effect. Figures such as Richard Swinburne and Basil Mitchell reflect on their life-long projects from a perspective which has not previously been seen in print. A wide range of approaches found in contemporary philosophy of religion are explored, including: reformed epistemology, 'traditional' metaphysical theory building, feminist methodologies, Wittgensteinian approaches, and American pragmatism. Considering the trends in philosophy of religion as they are interacting across continents, looking particularly at philosophical influences in North America, Britain, and Continental Europe, this book will appeal to students, scholars and general readers with an interest in philosophy of religion, theology, or analytical philosophy.
Book Synopsis Philosophy’s Artful Conversation by : D. N. Rodowick
Download or read book Philosophy’s Artful Conversation written by D. N. Rodowick and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-05 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theory has been an embattled discourse in the academy for decades. But now it faces a serious challenge from those who want to model the analytical methods of all scholarly disciplines on the natural sciences. What is urgently needed, says D. N. Rodowick, is a revitalized concept of theory that can assess the limits of scientific explanation and defend the unique character of humanistic understanding. Philosophy’s Artful Conversation is a timely and searching examination of theory’s role in the arts and humanities today. Expanding the insights of his earlier book, Elegy for Theory, and drawing on the diverse thought of Ludwig Wittgenstein, G. H. von Wright, P. M. S. Hacker, Richard Rorty, and Charles Taylor, Rodowick provides a blueprint of what he calls a “philosophy of the humanities.” In a surprising and illuminating turn, he views the historical emergence of theory through the lens of film theory, arguing that aesthetics, literary studies, and cinema studies cannot be separated where questions of theory are concerned. These discourses comprise a conceptual whole, providing an overarching model of critique that resembles, in embryonic form, what a new philosophy of the humanities might look like. Rodowick offers original readings of Gilles Deleuze and Stanley Cavell, bringing forward unexamined points of contact between two thinkers who associate philosophical expression with film and the arts. A major contribution to cross-disciplinary intellectual history, Philosophy’s Artful Conversation reveals the many threads connecting the arts and humanities with the history of philosophy.

Book Synopsis Philosophy and the Grammar of Religious Belief by : Mario von der Ruhr
Download or read book Philosophy and the Grammar of Religious Belief written by Mario von der Ruhr and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers in this collection are concerned with the epistemology of religious belief. The contributors disagree on such issues as whether philosophers have a role to play in determining the reasonableness or intelligibility of religious beliefs, or whether philosophy properly understood is a descriptive task. But all the papers are informed by the belief that philosophical discussion should proceed by giving attention to the character of the religious beliefs and practices under consideration.

Book Synopsis Coherence, Consonance, and Conversation by : S. Brian Stratton
Download or read book Coherence, Consonance, and Conversation written by S. Brian Stratton and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2000 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coherence, Consonance, and Conversation focuses on one of the most intriguing areas in contemporary theology today: the relationship between theology and natural science. Stratton rejects approaches which see the two disciplines as hostile or irrelevant to each other and argues that theology, philosophy, and natural science should be viewed as members of an ongoing dialogue which eventually results in a continuous world-view. Scholars and students of philosophy and theology will enjoy this interesting study.
Book Synopsis Religion and Philosophy by : Martin Warner
Download or read book Religion and Philosophy written by Martin Warner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-04-24 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lively collection ten philosophers tackle the notoriously elusive issues raised by religious discourse in a series of linked debates. The debates focus on reason and faith; the logic of mysticism; the meaning of the word "God"; language, Biblical interpretation and worship; and religion and ethics. Through contemporary philosophical analysis it is possible to shed new light on the status and language of religion, and in many ways the contributors to Religion and Philosophy break new ground in this perennially controversial field.
Book Synopsis Wittgenstein, Aesthetics and Philosophy by : Peter B. Lewis
Download or read book Wittgenstein, Aesthetics and Philosophy written by Peter B. Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although universally recognised as one of the greatest of modern philosophers, Wittgenstein's work in aesthetics has been unjustly neglected. This is the first book exclusively devoted to Wittgenstein's aesthetics, exploring the themes developed by Wittgenstein in his own writing on aesthetics as well as the implications of Wittgenstein's wider philosophical views for understanding central issues in aesthetics. Drawing together original contributions from leading international scholars, this book will be an important addition to studies of Wittgenstein's thought, but its discussion of issues in literature, music and performing art, and criticism will also be of interest to many students of literary and cultural studies. Exploring three key themes - the capacity of the arts to illuminate our lives; the nature of the particular responses involved in understanding and appreciating works of art; the role of theory and principle in artistic and critical practice - the contributors address issues raised by contemporary philosophers of art, and seek to make connections between Wittgenstein's work and that of other significant philosophies of art in the Western tradition. Displaying the best practice of modern philosophical writing - clarity, cogency, respect for but not blind obedience to common sense, argument illustrated with detailed examples, rejection of speculation and pretension - this book demonstrates how philosophy can make a valuable contribution to understanding the arts.
