Meer over het boek

The book explores Richard Rorty's contributions to philosophy, particularly his examination of its role in social and political contexts. It addresses fundamental questions about philosophy's function and limitations, including its ability to reflect on or prescribe societal norms. Rorty's work is significant for its meta-level analysis of philosophy as a whole, especially during a crisis in its foundational principles. By reimagining philosophy beyond traditional boundaries, Rorty has been recognized as a pivotal figure in contemporary American philosophical thought.
