We are glad to give notice of the release of the book Reading Brandom. On A Spirit of Trust, edited by Gilles Bouché (Routledge, 2020).
***
From the publisher’s website:
Robert Brandom’s rationalist philosophy of language, expounded in his highly influential Making It Explicit, has been the subject of intense scrutiny and debate, establishing him as one of the leading philosophers of his generation. In A Spirit of Trust, Brandom presents the fruits of his thirty-year engagement with Hegel. He submits that the Phenomenology of Spirit holds not only many lessons for today’s philosophy of language, but also a moral lesson much needed in today’s increasingly polarized societies, in the form of a postmodern ethics of trust.
In this outstanding collection, leading philosophers examine and assess A Spirit of Trust. The twelve specially commissioned chapters explore topics including:
- negation and truth
- empirical and speculative concepts
- experience
- conflict and recognition
- varieties of idealism
- premodern ethical life and modern alienation
- a postmodern ethics of trust.
