This 2007 volume presents a selection of the philosophical papers
which Richard Rorty has written over the past decade, and
complements three previous volumes of his papers: Objectivity,
Relativism, and Truth, Essays on Heidegger and Others and Truth and
Progress. Topics discussed include the changing role of philosophy
in Western culture over the course of recent centuries, the role of
the imagination in intellectual and moral progress, the notion of
'moral identity', the Wittgensteinian claim that the problems of
philosophy are linguistic in nature, the irrelevance of cognitive
science to philosophy, and the mistaken idea that philosophers
should find the 'place' of such things as consciousness and moral
value in a world of physical particles. The papers form a rich and
distinctive collection which will appeal to anyone with a serious
interest in philosophy and its relation to culture.
