In this remarkable book, Joseph Margolis, one of America's leading
and most celebrated philosophers, examines the relationship between
two apparently contradictory philosophical tendencies - realism and
relativism. In order to examine the relationship between the two,
Margolis establishes a taxonomy of different kinds of realism and
different kinds of relativism. Drawing on both the analytic and
Continental traditions, he examines (from a pragmatic point of
view) the various relationships between these two tendencies in the
light of two major developments in modern philosophy - the concern
for praxis and the concern for historicity. Twenty years after it
was first published to great acclaim, Margolis has updated
"Pragmatism Without Foundations" in the light of his most recent
work and the development of pragmatism in the intellectual world.
This second edition includes an updated preface and a brand new
epilogue addressing these developments and their implications for
his earlier work.
