Description

Explore the foundations of human thought with The Practical Origins of Ideas by Matthieu Queloz. Published by Oxford University Press, this work investigates why abstract concepts like truth, knowledge, and justice became central to human understanding. Instead of traditional analysis, the author introduces a specific philosophical method known as pragmatic genealogy to uncover the purpose behind these ideas. Pragmatic genealogies function as a blend of historical and fictional narratives to trace how our mental frameworks developed. This book is an open access title, meaning it is available under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. Readers can access the text for free via Oxford Scholarship Online or through a free PDF download from OUP and other selected open access locations. This makes it a highly accessible resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of philosophy and language.
