Herbartism In Austrian Philosophy

151,71€ + 10% CARD

 "Herbartism in Austrian-Hungarian philosophy" is often an obligatory reference, but even if quoting Herbart and his school is frequent, reading them attentively is less evident. Because Herbartism reached its peak in the second half of the 19th century, and was effectively institutionalized as "official philosophy" of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, at least in Prague and Vienna, criticizing Herbartism often means discussing the "Austrian", "philosophical" and "institutional" criteria of the object under consideration. As the history of the Austrian tradition and theoretical reflections in this field expand, discussion of this tradition is becoming more and more tight and precise. The contributors in this volume recall the historical and conceptual importance of Herbartism in the field of Austrian philosophy, by addressing several aspects of his specific realism: philosophical, theoretical, pedagogical, psychological, and aesthetical.

Fiction And Representation

by Zoltán Vecsey

168,28€ + 10% CARD

 One of the basic insights of the book is that there is a notion of non-relational linguistic representation which can fruitfully be employed in a systematic approach to literary fiction. This notion allows us to develop an improved understanding of the ontological nature of fictional entities. A related insight is that the customary distinction between extra-fictional and intra-fictional contexts has only a secondary theoretical importance. This distinction plays a central role in nearly all contemporary theories of literary fiction. There is a tendency among researchers to take it as obvious that the contrast between these two types of contexts is crucial for understanding the boundary that divides fiction from non-fiction. Seen from the perspective of non-relational representation, the key question is rather how representational networks come into being and how consumers of literary texts can, and do, engage with these networks. As a whole, the book provides, for the first time, a comprehensive artefactualist account of the nature of fictional entities.

Briefwechsel

by Alexius Meinong e Kazimierz Twardowski

3,96€ + 10% CARD

 Der Briefwechsel zwischen Meinong und Twardowski rückt die Beziehung der beiden Philosophen, die die Geschichte der Philosophie und der Psychologie in Österreich und Polen ein Stück weit mitgeschrieben haben, in den Brennpunkt. Man erfährt nicht nur einiges über die persönliche Geschichte der beiden Briefpartner, sondern auch viel über ihre akademische Tätigkeit und ihren erkenntnistheoretischen Ansatz sowie über die Hochschulpolitik der Zeit. In einer umfangreichen Einführung wird der historische und kulturelle Kontext, der Meinong und Twardowski prägte und zu dem beide später durch ihre Lehrtätigkeit in Graz beziehungsweise Lemberg beitrugen, veranschaulicht. In Bezug auf den Briefwechsel betrachtet die Einführung die theoretische Unterscheidung von Akt, Inhalt und Gegenstand sowie die Urteilstheorie und öffnet den Blick für den Austausch der beiden Philosophen mit ihren Zeitgenossen. Der Band ist im Feld der österreichischen und polnischen Philosophie, insbesondere unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Schule Brentanos und der frühen Phänomenologie, von besonderem Interesse und offenbart die kulturgeschichtlichen Affinitäten in Zentraleuropa zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts.
