October 1989Revisionen
Philosophie und andere Künste und Wissenschaften
by Nelson Goodman, Catherine Z. Elgin, Bernd Philippi
Die Hinwendung zur Sprache und die fächerübergreifende Verbreitung der Semiotik sind Entwicklungen in der Philosophie, die Goodman für sein Werk so charakterisiert, »daß Kant die Struktur der Welt durch die Struktur des Geistes ersetzte, in deren Fortführung C.I. Lewis die Struktur der Begriffe an die Stelle der Struktur des Geistes treten ließ, und die nun schließlich dahin gekommen sind, die Struktur der Begriffe durch die Strukturen der verschiedenen Symbolsysteme der Wissenschaften, der Philosophie, der Künste, der Wahrnehmung und der alltäglichen Rede zu ersetzen«. In ihrem gemeinsamen Werk Revisionen plädieren Goodman und Elgin für eine umfassende Neuorientierung in der Philosophie und anderen Künsten und Wissenschaften. Das Buch beginnt mit einem Überblick über den augenblicklichen Stand im Prozeß der Neuorientierung. Revisionen stellt nicht nur einen Wechsel im begrifflichen Apparat vor, sondern eine umfassende Neuorientierung, die sich auf Interessen und Einstellungen auswirkt und methodologische Maximen einbezieht.

April 1997Sprachen der Kunst
Entwurf einer Symboltheorie
by Nelson Goodman, Bernd Philippi
"In diesem Werk untersucht Goodman unter anderem die Konventionalität der Perspektive; er formuliert eine Theorie der Metapher und ermöglicht vor dem Hintergrund seiner Theorie der Notation die Festlegung eines strengen Werkbegriffs. Das Neue in seiner Kunstphilosophie besteht jedoch in der Erkenntnis der bedeutenden Rolle der Exemplifikation; sie ist eine der wichtigen Weisen, in denen Kunstwerke funktionieren. Das Verfahren der Exemplifikation ist nicht nur von entscheidender Bedeutung etwa für das Verständnis abstrakter Kunst, es hat inzwischen auch scheinbar »entlegene« Disziplinen wie die Anthropologie erreicht, wo es zusammen mit der Denotation zur Beschreibung und Klassifikation rituellen Verhaltens erprobt wird."

December 2023Verantwortung
Philosophische Grundlagentexte
by Christoph Halbig, Jörg Löschke, Philipp Schwind
Die Zuschreibung von Verantwortung für unsere Handlungen ist ein zentraler Bestandteil unserer moralischen Praxis. Aber sie wirft schwierige philosophische Fragen auf. Müssen wir beispielsweise über einen freien Willen verfügen, um für unsere Handlungen verantwortlich zu sein? Ist Verantwortung ein einheitliches Phänomen oder gibt es verschiedene Arten von Verantwortung? Und können wir nur für unsere Taten verantwortlich sein oder beispielsweise auch für unsere Überzeugungen? Der Band versammelt – zum Teil erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung – die zentralen Texte der philosophischen Debatte über Verantwortung, u. a. von Stephen Darwall, Harry G. Frankfurt, H. L. H. Hart, Thomas Nagel, Peter Strawson, Susan Wolf und Iris Marion Young.

Literature & Literary StudiesMay 2024David, Donne and Thirsty Deer
Selected Essays of Anne Lake Prescott
by Anne Lake Prescott, Roger Kuin, William A. Oram
For nearly half a century Anne Lake Prescott has been a force and an inspiration in Renaissance studies. A force, because of her unique blend of learning and wit and an inspiration through her tireless encouragement of younger scholars and students. Her passion has always been the invisible bridge across the Channel: the complex of relations, literary and political, between Britain and France. The essays in this long-awaited collection range from Edmund Spenser to John Donne, from Clément Marot to Pierre de Ronsard. Prescott has a particular fondness for King David, who appears several times; and the reader will encounter chessmen, bishops, male lesbian voices and Roman whores. Always Prescott's immense erudition is accompanied by a sly and gentle wit that invites readers to share her amusement. Reading her is a joyful education.
