Interpretation, Relativism, and the Metaphysics of Culture Themes in the Philosophy of Joseph Margolis

Michael Krausz,Richard Shusterman
"In a spirit of good-natured dialogue, leading scholars of various philosophical persuasions critically engage these important questions. The fourteen previously unpublished essays in this volume explore Margolis's contributions, ranging from the subtle issues of detail within his system to very general questions of the need, viability, and value of a hermeneutic, relativistic metaphysics of flux. At the conclusion of the book, Professor Margolis responds to points raised in each paper."--BOOK JACKET.

The Collected Works of Aron Gurwitsch (1901-1973) Volume I: Constitutive Phenomenology in Historical Perspective

Aron Gurwitsch
1 The present volume is rich in essential phenomenological descriptions 2 and insightful historico-critical analyses, some of which cannot be fully appreciated, however, except by close examination on the part of the reader. Accordingly, such a task ought to be left to the consideration and judgment of the latter, save where such discussions are directly relevant to the topics I will be dwelling upon. I prefer, then, to approach the matters and questions contained here otherwise, namely, archeologically. In this I 3 follow Jose ́ Huertas-Jourda, the editor of the corresponding French vol- 4 ume, in his felicitous terminological choice, although I adopt it here for my purposes in an etymological sense, i. e. , as signifying a return to prin- 5 ciples or origins. This, after all, is consistent not only with the spirit and practice of phenomenology, as acknowledged by Aron Gurwitsch often enough, but as well with what he has actually said, to wit: it is a qu- tion of 1 Cf. , e. g. , infra,in An Outline of Constitutive Phenomenology, Chapter 4, pp. 185 ff. (Henceforth I shall refer to this book as Outline. ) This essay will be devoted to the study of selected parts of the contents of this volume, although, when necessary, use will be made here of other works by various authors, including Gurwitsch. 2 Cf. , e. g. , ibid. , Chapter 3, pp. 107 ff.
