This collection concentrates on vital themes from Michael Dummett,
one of the most influential and creative analytic philosophers of
our time. The contributors, who include some of Dummett's
distinguished former students, critically reflect on various
concerns of Dummett's ground-breaking work in philosophy of
language, metaphysics, and philosophy of mathematics and logic. The
essays direct towards aspects of Dummett's pioneering work in the
history of analytical philosophy, particularly his interpretations
of the works of Frege and of Wittgenstein, which in conjunction
with Dummett's own highly original ideas on truth and meaning have
shaped decisive contemporary debates concerning notably the
distinction between realism and anti-realism. Further, the volume
includes a cheerfully serious excursion into popular philosophy by
Dummett himself and reveals less known facets of Dummett's
many-sided work and activities such as his political philosophy of
immigration and asylum, and beyond that, his untiring and
warm-hearted campaign for racial justice and humanity.
Contributors: Michael Dummett, Eva Picardi, Crispin Wright, Timothy
Williamson, Ian Rumfitt, Daniel Isaacson, Dag Prawitz, Dale
Jacquette, Alex Burri, Michael Frauchiger.
