Franz Brentano (1838-1917) was a leading philosopher and
psychologist of the nineteenth century. Indeed, the impact of his
scholarship was so great that he became synonymous with a school of
thought and a new approach in scientific philosophy. The Brentano
School stood against the Idealistic and post-Kantian German
tradition and Brentano played a crucial role in the founding of
Austrian philosophy. He had an enormous impact on the work of
Husserl and Heidegger, as well as on Moore's Ethics and Stout and
Russell's analysis of mind. In particular, situated between the
phenomenology movement and the analytic tradition, the concept of
intentionality was redefined by Brentano and has been-and remains-a
key concept of twentieth- and twentieth-first century philosophy of
mind. But Brentano not only reshaped philosophy of mind; he was
also a remarkable and innovative thinker in several other fields of
philosophy, and recent debate in metaethics, metaphysics, and the
history of analytic philosophy shows a strong resurgence of
interest in Brentano's thought. Published to coincide with the
centenary of Brentano's death, this four-volume collection, a new
title from Routledge Major Works, provides an essential
intellectual tool for the exegetical evaluation of all aspects of
Brentano's work. Bringing together early reviews and reactions from
his contemporaries-many of which have never before been translated
into English-as well as the best critical assessments of Brentano's
work, this 'mini library' provides Brentano scholars, historians of
philosophy and psychology, and phenomenologists, with a rigorous
historical appraisal of Brentano's thought and influence.
Brentano's relationships with Husserl, Heidegger, and the
phenomenological tradition are examined in depth, alongside
investigations of key themes from his work on Aristotle, medieval
and modern philosophy, philosophy of mind, logic, ontology, ethics,
aesthetics, philosophy of religion, and the philosophy of history.
