Softcover. Condizione: Gut. 261 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Sehr guter Zustand, alterbedingt minimal verschlissen / Very good condition, minimally worn due to age. - Philosophy Descartes and his Contemporaries recreates the tumultuous intellectual community of seventeenth-century Europe and provides a detailed, modern analysis of Descartes landmark Meditations in its historical context. Before publishing Meditations in 1641, Descartes sent his manuscript to many leading thinkers to solicit their objections to his arguments. He incorporated these objections, along with his own detailed replies, as part of the first edition. His unusual strategy gave Descartes a chance to address criticisms in advance and to demonstrate his willingness to consider diverse viewpoints critical in an age when radical ideas could result in condemnation by Church and state, or even death. This book examines the arguments and positions of each of the objectors Hobbes, Gassendi, Arnauld, Morin, Caterus, Bourdin, and others whose views were compiled by Mersenne. It illuminates Descartes relationships to the scholastics and particularly the Jesuits, to Mersenne s circle with its debates about the natural sciences, to the Epicurean movements of his day, and to the Augustinian tradition. Providing a glimpse of the interactions among leading seventeenthcentury intellectuals as they grappled with major philosophical issues, this book sheds new light on how Descartes thought was developed and articulated in opposition to the ideas of his contemporaries. Bringing together the most current work by leading American and European scholars of Descartes and his circle, Descartes and his Contemporaries provides an essential context for the Meditations and new insight into the roots of modern Western philosophy.
