Description

For a good part of the 20th century, the classic Pragmatists―Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, and John Dewey―and pragmatism in general were largely ignored by analytic philosophers. They were said to hold such untenable views as whatever best satisfies our needs is true and that the end justifies the means. Despite a recent revival of interest in these figures, spurred largely by the work of Richard Rorty, it is not uncommon to continue to hear claims that pragmatism is a subjectivist, anti-realist position that denies that there is a mind-independent world, and fails to place objective constraints on inquiry. In this book, Robert Schwartz dispels these traditional views by examining the empiricist and constructivist orientation of the classic pragmatists. Based on updated and expanded versions of his influential papers, as well as a number of previously unpublished essays, in this book Schwartz demonstrates the relevance of pragmatic thought to a wide range of issues beyond concerns over truth and realism that currently dominate discussions. The individual essays elaborate and defend pragmatic, instrumentalist, and constructivist conceptions of truth and inquiry, moral discourse and ethical statements, perception, art, and worldmaking. Pragmatic Perspectives will appeal to scholars interested in the history of American philosophy and pragmatic approaches to contemporary issues in analytic philosophy. About the Author Robert Schwartz is Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He has taught at Rockefeller University and CUNY, and been a Visiting Professor at Harvard University, University of Pennsylvania, and University of Chicago. He is the author of: Vision: Variations on Some Berkeleian Themes, Visual Versions, and Rethinking Pragmatism
