Wilfrid Sellars made profound and lasting contributions to nearly
every area of philosophy. The aim of this collection is to
highlight the continuing importance of Sellars' work to
contemporary debates. The contributors include several luminaries
in Sellars scholarship, as well as members of the new generation
whose work demonstrates the lasting power of Sellars' ideas. Papers
by O'Shea and Koons develop Sellars' underexplored views concerning
ethics, practical reasoning, and free will, with an emphasis on his
longstanding engagement with Kant. Sachs, Hicks and Pereplyotchik
relate Sellars' views of mental phenomena to current topics in
cognitive science and philosophy of mind. Fink, deVries, Price,
Macbeth, Christias, and Brandom grapple with traditional Sellarsian
themes, including meaning, truth, existence, and objectivity.
Brandhoff provides an original account of the evolution of Sellars'
philosophy of language and his project of "pure pragmatics". The
volume concludes with an author-meets-critics section centered
around Robert Brandom's recent book, From Empiricism to
Expressivism: Brandom Reads Sellars, with original commentaries and
replies.
