The Linguistic Turn: Essays in Philosophical Method

The Linguistic Turn: Essays in Philosophical Method

by Rorty (Author)

Synopsis

The Linguistic Turn provides a rich and representative introduction to the entire historical and doctrinal range of the linguistic philosophy movement. In two retrospective essays titled Ten Years After and Twenty-Five Years After, Rorty shows how his book was shaped by the time in which it was written and traces the directions philosophical study has taken since. All too rarely an anthology is put together that reflects imagination, command, and comprehensiveness. Rorty's collection is just such a book. --Review of Metaphysics Richard Rorty is University Professor of Humanities at the University of Virginia.
