Phenomenology and Existentialism - An Introduction (Paperback): Reinhardt Grossmann Phenomenology and Existentialism - An Introduction (Paperback)
Reinhardt Grossmann
R1,450 Discovery Miles 14 500 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Professor Grossman's introduction to the revolutionary work of Husserl, Heidegger and Sartre studies the ideas of their predecessors too, explaining in detail Descartes's conception of the mind, Brentano's theory of intentionality, and Kierkegaard's emphasis on dread, while tracing the debate over existence and essence as far back as Aquinas and Aristotle. For a full understanding of the existentialists and phenomenologists, we must also understand the problems that they were trying to solve. This book, originally published in 1984, presents clearly how the main concerns of phenomenology and existentialism grew out of tradition.

The Existence of the World - An Introduction to Ontology (Paperback): Reinhardt Grossmann The Existence of the World - An Introduction to Ontology (Paperback)
Reinhardt Grossmann
R1,160 Discovery Miles 11 600 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Originally published in 1992. The history of Western philosophy can be seen as a battle between those that insist that the "physical universe" exists and those would claim that there is a much larger "world" which contains atemporal and nonspatial things as well. The central part of this book, and the battle, concerns the existence of universals. Starting with the mediaeval definition of the issue found in Porphry and Boethius, the author then considers modern and contemporary versions of the battle. He concludes that what is at stake between naturalists and ontologists is the existence and nature of a number of important categories, like structures, relations, sets, numbers and so on.

Diese Einfuhrung in die Ontologie zeigt die Geschichte der abendlandischen Philosophie als einen dauernden Kampf zwischen den Riesen und Gottern von Platons Sophistes. Auf der einen Seite gibt es die Philosophen, die die Auffassung vertreten, dass nur das physikalische Universum existiert und auf der anderen Seite gibt es solche Philosophen, die darauf bestehen, dass es eine weit 'grossere' Welt gibt, die auch zeitlose und nicht-raumliche Dinge, wie z.B. Egenschaften enthalt. Der Autor diskutiert detailliert diese wichtige metaphysische Debatte, die dem Kampf zugrunde liegt, namlich die Auseinandersetzung zwischen Naturalisten und Ontologen. Das Buch beginnt mit einer Untersuchung der Geschichte der Auseinandersetzung zwischen Nominalisten und Realisten uber das Problem der Universalien. Danach erkundet der Autor die Natur und Existenz der Kategorien wie Relationen, Strukturen, Zahlen und Tatsachen. Im letzten Teil argumentiert er dafur, dass Existenz und Negation keine Kategorien sind, sondern eher Merkmale der Welt. Die Einfuhrung in die Ontologie dient zugleich als Einfuhrung in die Philosophie insgesamt und zeichnet sich durch Klarheit, gute Verstandlichkeit und einen lebendigen Stil aus."

Reflections on Frege's Philosophy (Paperback): Reinhardt Grossmann Reflections on Frege's Philosophy (Paperback)
Reinhardt Grossmann
R1,338 Discovery Miles 13 380 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In Reflections on Frege's Philosophy, Reinhardt Grossmann investigates the most important themes in the philosophy of Friedrich Ludwig Gottlob Frege (1848-1925): his distinction between objects and functions, his characterization of numbers as nonmental classes, his theory of sense and reference, and his ontology of truth-values. Grossmann examines Frege's solutions to basic philosophical problems, and where he finds them inadequate provides what he considers to be more viable alternatives. Grossmann argues that an ontology should contain states of affairs rather than Fregean senses, and that the sense-reference distinction, Frege's most original and famous metaphysical innovation, must ultimately be rejected. This study is both an exposition of Frege's philosophy and an original contribution to the philosophical enterprise.
