The Pragmatic Mind - Explorations in the Psychology of Belief

"Bauerlein has written a closely argued and rigorously organized philosophical study that has importance for thinkers who are philosophers, literary critics, and cultural critics. It is a book that should be read by all neopragmatists."--John Carlos Rowe, University of California at Irvine

Riassunto

A study of the pragmatism of Emerson, James, and Peirce and its relevance for the neopragmatism of thinkers like Richard Rorty, Stanley Fish, and Cornel West. In offering neopragmatism, a theory of the mind taken from Emerson, James, and Peirce, this book suggests that the neopragmatists' arguments can be sharpened across a variety of disciplines.
