In 1969 Stanley Cavell's Must We Mean What We Say? revolutionized
philosophy of ordinary language, aesthetics, ethics, tragedy,
literature, music, art criticism, and modernism. This volume of new
essays offers a multi-faceted exploration of Cavell's first and
most important book, fifty years after its publication. The key
subjects which animate Cavell's book are explored in detail:
ordinary language, aesthetics, modernism, skepticism, forms of
life, philosophy and literature, tragedy and the self, the
questions of voice and audience, jazz and sound, Wittgenstein,
Austin, Beckett, Kierkegaard, Shakespeare. The essays make Cavell's
complex style and sometimes difficult thought accessible to a new
generation of students and scholars. They offer a way into Cavell's
unique philosophical voice, conveying its seminal importance as an
intellectual intervention in American thought and culture, and
showing how its philosophical radicality remains of lasting
significance for contemporary philosophy, American philosophy,
literary studies, and cultural studies.
