Produktinformationen zu „Truth - Philosophy in Transit “
Explores the many notions of 'truth', and what it really means Riding to work in the morning has become commonplace. The author argues that our transportation technologies are not merely transient phenomena but the vehicle for an important metaphor about post modernism, or even constitutive of post modernism.
Klappentext zu „Truth - Philosophy in Transit “
What is 'truth' in today's freewheeling, pluralistic world, without certainties or fixed ideas? Does it lie in the Reason of Descartes and Kant? Is it Derrida's idea of an event, still being made? Or, according to Nietzsche, an ensemble of fictions? Internationally renowned philosopher John D. Caputo explores truth in the postmodern age.

Rezension zu „Truth - Philosophy in Transit “
Caputo's entertaining investigation into the nature of truth ... sets out his case confidently, enlisting Nietzsche, Kierkegaard and Derrida as his allies. (His explanation of Derrida's thought is one of the clearest that I've read.) ... The starting point for a more sophisticated discussion. -- David Wolf Prospect
