Levinas and James

Angebote / Angebote:

Bringing to light new facets in the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas andWilliam James, Megan Craig explores intersections between French phenomenology andAmerican pragmatism. Craig demonstrates the radical empiricism of Levinas'sphilosophy and the ethical implications of James's pluralism while illuminatingtheir relevance for two philosophical disciplines that have often held each other atarm's length. Revealing the pragmatic minimalism in Levinas's work and thecentrality of imagery in James's prose, she suggests that aesthetic links arecrucial to understanding what they share. Craig's suggestive readings change currentperceptions and clear a path for a more open, pluralistic, and creative pragmaticphenomenology that takes cues from both philosophers.
