Cambridge University Press Kant and the Claims of Knowledge Cambridge Paperback Library
Book SynopsisThis book offers a radically new account of the development and structure of the central arguments of Kant's Critique of Pure Reason: the defense of the objective validity of such categories as substance, causation, and independent existence. Paul Guyer makes far more extensive use than any other commentator of historical materials from the years leading up to the publication of the Critique and surrounding its revision, and he shows that the work which has come down to us is the result of some striking and only partially resolved theoretical tensions. Kant had originally intended to demonstrate the validity of the categories by exploiting what he called 'analogies of appearance' between the structure of self-knowledge and our knowledge of objects. The idea of a separate 'transcendental deduction', independent from the analysis of the necessary conditions of empirical judgements, arose only shortly before publication of the Critique in 1781, and distorted much of Kant's original inspirTable of ContentsAcknowledgments; Notes on sources; Introduction; Part I.

Cambridge University Press Hegels Idealism The Satisfactions of
Book SynopsisThis is the most important book on Hegel to have appeared in the past ten years. Robert Pippin offers a completely new interpretation of Hegel's idealism, which focuses on Hegel's appropriation and development of kant's theoretical project. Hegel is presented neither as a precritical metaphysician nor as a social theorist, but as a critical philosopher whose disagreements with Kant, especially on the issue of intuitions, enrich the idealist arguments against empiricism, realism and naturalism. In the face of the dismissal of absolute idealism as either unintelligible or implausible, Pippin explains and defends an original account of the philosophical basis for Hegel's claims about the historical and social nature of selfconsciousness, and so of knowledge itself.Trade Review' … the scholarship on which the book is based is first-rate and the presentation is genuinely philosophical … the book is an important one, and one any serious advanced student of German Idealism will have to read.' Raymond Geuss, Columbia University'In the history of Hegel interpretation this will (I hope) prove to be a very influential book. it should forever put paid to the myth of Hegel's speculative philosophy as a direct return to the high rationalist tradition which Kant condemned as 'dogmatic' … This achievement makes Pippin's book a major event in the story of our effort to understand Hegel.' H. S. Harris, York University, TorontoTable of ContentsAcknowledgments; Primary texts abbreviations; Part I. The Idealist Background: 1. Introduction; 2. Kantian and Hegelian idealism; 3. Fichte's contribution; 4. The Jena formulations; Part II. The Phenomenology of Idealism: 5. Skepticism, knowledge, and thruth in the Jena phenomenology; 6. Overcoming consciousness; 7. satisfying self-consciousness; Part III. Idealist Logic: 8. Objective logic; 9. Reflected being; 10. Hegel's idea; Notes; Bibliography; Index.

Cambridge University Press Inventing the French Revolution Essays on French Political Culture in the Eighteenth Century 16 Ideas in Context Series Number 16
Book SynopsisHow did the French Revolution become thinkable? Keith Michael Baker, a leading authority on the ideological origins of the French Revolution, explores this question in his wide-ranging collection of essays. Analyzing the new politics of contestation that transformed the traditional political culture of the Old Regime during its last decades, Baker revises our historical map of the political space in which the French Revolution took form. Some essays study the ways in which the revolutionaries' break with the past was prepared by competition between agents and critics of absolute monarchy to control the cultural resources and political meanings of French sought before 1789 to reconstitute their body politic; and by the invention of 'public opinion' as a new form of political authority displacing notions of 'representation', 'constitution', 'sovereignty' - and of 'the French Revolution' itself - the ambiguities, tensions, and contradictions that were to drive the revolutionary dynamic inTrade Review'Professor Keith Baker is undoubtedly one of the most creative historians working on the intellectual histiry of 18th century France … Anyone working in this field should listen carefully to what he has to say.' Colin Lucas, Balliol College, Oxford'[Professor Baker's] is an original and brilliant analysis of the central types of political discourse of the waning ancien régime.'
