Existential Phenomenology

Politics & Social Sciences

Luijpen, William A.

Philosophy

Duquesne University Press

After describing man as existence and its implications, this book explores the meaning of knowledge and truth in terms of existential thinking. Next, it develops the concrete notion of human freedom, implied in existence, and man's fundamental intersubjective attitudes of hatred, indifference, love, and justice. In the final chapter it raises the problem of man's metaphysical dimension and the existence of God.

Social theory at a crossroads (Duquesne studies : Philosophical series)

This book surveys an area of his profession -- social theory -- in a series of essays that cover an enormous amount of disparate material. Critiques, philosophy, history of social scientists and of the profession are all covered in this interesting volume.

McBride, William Leon

In 1746 the French philosophe Condillac published his Essay on the Origin of Human Knowledge, one of many attempts during the century to determine how we organize and validate ideas as knowledge. In investigating language, especially written language, he found not only the seriousness he sought but also a great deal of frivolity whose relation to the sober business of philosophy had to be addressed somehow. If the mind truly reflects the world, and language reflects the mind, why is there so much error and nonsense? Whence the distortions? How can they be remedied?In The Archeology of the Frivolous, Jacques Derrida recoups Condillac's enterprise, showing how it anticipated--consciously or not--many of the issues that have since stymied epistemology and linguistic philosophy. If anyone doubts that deconstruction can be a powerful analytic method, try this.
