Richard A. Smyth - Reading Peirce Reading

Title: Reading Peirce Reading
Description: Rowman & Littlefield, 1997. Paperback. Pp: 327. The founder of American pragmatism, C.S. Peirce, lived as an eccentric, but thought as a dedicated communitarian. In Reading Peirce Reading, Richard Smyth demonstrates that Peirce's early essays presuppose a very distinctive perspective on the history of philosophy. One important mark of a major philosopher, Smyth argues, is that the philosopher causes us to read the history of thought in new ways. Smyth shows not only that Peirce passes that test, but that Peirce's philosophical practice actually did conform to his communal ideal for inquiry. Students and scholars interested in the history of philosophy and pragmatism will want to read this book. ISBN: 9780847684335. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
