A founder of modern analytic philosophy and one of the most
important logicians of the twentieth century, Bertrand Russell has
influenced generations of philosophers. The Bloomsbury Companion to
Bertrand Russell explores this influence in detail and responds to
renewed interest in Russell's philosophical approach, presenting
the best guide to research in Russell studies today. Bringing new
insights into Russell's relationship with his contemporaries, a
team of experts explore his life-long battles with important
philosophical issues. They consider how he influenced thinkers and
schools of thought, from Schroeder, Frege and Meinong to
Wittgenstein and the Vienna Circle, while also covering his impact
on individual issues in epistemology, logic, metaphysics,
philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, and political
philosophy. Importantly this companion discusses often overlooked
topics. Focusing on Russell's later views, including his moral
philosophy and his politics, reveals that Russell did make
significant contributions to ethics - both theoretical and
practical - in the course of his career. Through a combination of
enlightening historical background and sustained focus on Russell's
impact on contemporary areas of philosophy, The Bloomsbury
Companion to Bertrand Russell demonstrates why Russell continues to
influence philosophers of language, mathematics, epistemology and
metaphysics.
