First Published in 1999. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &amp; Francis, an informa company.

First Published in 1999. The purpose of this series is to provide a contemporary assessment and history of the-entire course of philosophical thought. Each book constitutes a detailed, critical introduction to the work of a philosopher of major influence and significance. Butler’s writings are not voluminous, and he does not offer us a philosophical system. But he is generally regarded as among the very finest English moralists, and although his reputation in this respect has declined, he was for a long time considered to be a great philosophical theologian. In the course of his work in these spheres, he also produces some classic arguments in the philosophy of mind and action.

An Annotated Anthology 唐宋儒家詩文譯注

Confucian Literature of the Tang and Song Dynasties

Das Werk Søren Kierkegaards (1813-1855) vergegenwärtigt in einzigartiger und exemplarischer Weise den Problemhorizont von Religiosität und säkularer Moderne, der seit der Wende zum 19. Jahrhundert die europäische Geistesgeschichte bestimmt. Kierkegaards Eigenart zeigt sich dabei in denkerisch-begrifflicher, sprachlich-stilistischer und lebenspraktischer Hinsicht: vom Existenzdenken über die indirekte Mitteilung in pseudonymen Schriften und erbaulichen Reden bis zum Dandytum, Karikaturenstreit und Kirchenkampf. Genauer noch zeigt sich Kierkegaards Eigenart im Ringen um die Entsprechung von Denken, Sprache und Handeln, auf die nach seiner Redlichkeitsforderung alles ankommt. Die Konsequenz, mit der Kierkegaard diese Problematik theoretisch entfaltet und praktisch austrägt, hat seine Ausnahmestellung unter den intellektuellen Wegbegleitern der Moderne begründet und ihn zu einem wichtigen Gesprächspartner der Postmoderne gemacht, dessen Aktualität eher noch zunimmt. Das Handbuch setzt mit Kapiteln zu wesentlichen Aspekten des Gesamtwerks ein, wie etwa Kierkegaards antipersuasiver Rhetorik, um dann vor diesem Hintergrund seine Werke darzustellen. Nach einer Kontextualisierung von Kierkegaards Wirken in Dänemarks Goldenem Zeitalter zeichnet das Handbuch abschließend die vielfältige und anhaltende Wirkungsgeschichte seines Werkes nach.

Elements on Women in the History of Philosophy

This Element aims to illuminate the affinities between Murdoch's concept of the individual and the Enlightenment ideal of a society in which people live together as free equals. There are five sections, with emphasis on context for discussion, comparing outlooks, and examining main features of Murdoch's 'naturalized' individual.

Iris Murdoch

When Eileen O'Neill (1953-2017) published her ground-breaking essay, "Disappearing Ink: Early Modern Women Philosophers and the History of Philosophy" in 1998, women philosophers were virtually absent from encyclopedias of philosophy and the numerous histories and anthologies of early modern thought. This essay would come to have an enormous impact, signaling the beginning of the movement to introduce early modern women philosophers into the canon. In its densely-packed 46 pages, "Disappearing Ink" presented the names, major works, and principal theses of literally dozens of forgotten women, whose works were published during the early modern period and who had engaged in correspondence with central male figures but whose names and works had since been erased. 

Disappearing Ink reprints this now-canonical piece together with subsequent essays, some widely read, some harder to locate, and one, on "Cartesianism and the Gendered Mind", written in 2013 and published here for the first time. The essays in Part I develop O'Neill's views on feminist history of philosophy, articulating an account of feminist historiography that is inclusive yet at the same time textually nuanced. The essays in Part II provide in-depth treatment of individual figures and themes. These essays discuss the views of early modern women philosophers such as Mary Astell, Margaret Cavendish, and Mme de Lambert alongside those of Descartes, Leibniz, Poullain de la Barre, and the Scholastics, engaging with questions of mind-body interaction, occasional causation, physical influx, pan-organicism, and whether the Cartesian mind is gendered. The sole essay in Part III departs from the historical orientation of Parts I and II. This essay, informed by O'Neill's deep knowledge of art history, is an illuminating study of agency in representations of women in feminist erotic art of the 1980s. 

Combined, these works trace the complete arc of O'Neill's thought, from painstaking studies of individual themes and figures to a sweeping vision of how feminism should inform our approach to the history of early modern thought--indeed, to the history of philosophy more generally. More than anyone else, O'Neill explained why women were excluded from the canon and showed how they could be incorporated into it.

Kantstudien-Ergänzungshefte

Kants akademische Vorlesungen dokumentieren seine kontinuierliche Auseinandersetzung mit Baumgarten hinsichtlich der Bestimmung der Grundstrukturen des Handelns sowie der Bedeutung der Freiheit, die sich in Entscheidungsprozessen äußert. Durch den systematischen Vergleich des Vorlesungsmaterials mit der Entwicklung des Kantischen Denkens in den publizierten Schriften wirft diese Arbeit neues Licht auf die historischen Wurzeln und auf die theoretischen Ziele von Kants ethischem Projekt.

Ein Vergleich zwischen Kant und Baumgarten

Handlungstheorie und Anwendbarkeit der Ethik

Why are we conscious? What role did this mental trait evolve to play in modulating behavior? Or is consciousness just an epiphenomenon, a useless byproduct of otherwise self-sufficient brain activity? This book offers a historical approach to these philosophical questions. It contextualizes and philosophically analyzes William James's long-overlooked work on consciousness. James's old work on consciousness is in effect discarded science-but the book shows that discarded science can yield surprising insights on issues that are still being debated today.

William James was an acknowledged master of phenomenal description. He gave us the "stream of consciousness" that "flows," and the newborn's mental life as a "blooming, buzzing confusion." But in Consciousness Is Motor, Alexander Klein shows that James sculpted these phenomenal descriptions around an armature of empirical details. His book reconstructs James's models of consciousness and volition, uncovering results from animal experimentation and clinical observation on which those models were built. What emerges is a more powerful and more empirically-informed account of mind than has been appreciated.

James's early work on consciousness engaged the 1870s automatism controversy. The controversy was triggered, Klein argues, by experiments demonstrating that living, decapitated frogs are capable of goal-directed action. One side regarded goal-directedness as evidence of spinal consciousness; the other espoused epiphenomenalism, reasoning that consciousness must play no role in producing even purposive action since the latter is possible for brainless creatures. 

James intervened, Klein shows, by arguing that consciousness has a likely evolutionary function-behavior regulation-and so cannot be a mere epiphenomenon. It accomplishes this function by affording a capacity for evaluation, on Klein's reading. As evidence, James appealed not just to introspection, but also to experimental facts, such as that hemisphere-less vertebrates have a diminished capacity for evaluating different available means to pursue goals. James's "ideo-motor" model of action demonstrated precisely how an evaluating consciousness could help regulate behavior. Klein excavates key clinical observations James designed the ideo-motor model to accommodate, including observations of patients with impairments like paresis and anaesthesia. The resulting model features an early example of a predictive, error-correction feedback loop for motor control.

Klein concludes by showing how James's models of consciousness and action feed into his distinctive philosophical outlook, soon to be known as pragmatism. According to his doctrine, meaning and truth are understood in terms of goal-directed action guidance. Consciousness Is Motor paints a striking new portrait of James as an empirically-informed philosopher and psychologist-one who anticipated some contemporary approaches, even while furnishing neglected alternatives to theoretical problems that continue to vex researchers today.

William James on Mind and Action

Consciousness is Motor

Iris Murdoch is well-known for her moral philosophy, especially for the light it sheds on the inner life. This Element focuses on the political significance and contours of Murdoch's ethics. Its chief aim is to illuminate the affinities between Murdoch's concept of the individual and the Enlightenment ideal of a society in which people live together as free equals. There are five sections in this Element. Section 1 provides context for the discussion. Section 2 compares what Murdoch calls the liberal and naturalistic outlooks and argues that she develops a modified version of the naturalistic outlook to better support an Enlightenment sensibility. Sections 3 and 4 examine the three main features of Murdoch's 'naturalized' individual. Section 3 considers the individual's uniqueness and transcendence. Section 4 considers the individual's knowability through love. Section 5 offers some concluding remarks.

The Quotable Kierkegaard

A groundbreaking study which explores how Kant's ethics intersect with metaphysical questions and demonstrates how Kant was concerned with two distinct deductions in Groundwork and in the second Critique, one successful, the other one impossible. This book will be valuable for scholars, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates in philosophy.
