First published in 1973. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
Franz Brentano is recognised as one of the most important philosophers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This work, first published in English in 1988, besides being an important contribution to metaphysics in its own right, has considerable historical importance through its influence on Husserl's views on internal time consciousness. The work is preceded by a long introduction by Stephan K?rner in collaboration with Brentano's literary executor.
First published in English in1966, The True and The Evident is a
translation of Franz Brentano's posthumous Wahrheit und Evidenz,
edited by Oscsar Kraus. The book includes Brentano's influential
lecture On the Concept of Truth, read before the Vienna
Philosophical Society, a variety of essays, drawn from the immense
wealth of Brentano's unpublished material, and letters written by
him to Marty, Kraus Hillebrand, and Husserl.
Brentano rejects the familiar versions of the correspondence theory of truth and proposes to define the true in terms of the evident. In criticising the metaphysical assumptions presupposed by the correspondence theory, he sets forth a conception of language and reality that has subsequently become known as reism.
Based on a lecture given before the Vienna Law Society in 1889, this title had an extraordinary influence in the field of philosophy. It provided the basis for the theory of value as this was developed by Meinong, Husserl and Scheler. In addition, the doctrine of intentionality that is presented here is central to contemporary philosophy of mind.
Expanding on the theory of ethics first posited by Brentano in
The Origin of our Knowledge of Right and Wrong this re-issued work,
first published posthumously in 1952, is based on series of
lectures on practical philosophy, given at the university of Vienna
from 1876 to 1894. The English-speaking reader will find it interesting to examine the step-by-step development of Brentano's ethical theory, his extensive critique of British moral philosophers, and his unusually detailed section on casuistry.
Here, for the first time in English, is Franz Brentano's The Teaching of Jesus, a compendium of texts Brentano assembled for publication shortly before his death that constitute a frank, public settling of accounts with the Christian religion. Originally conceived by Brentano as a volume that might help others similarly led to doubt the doctrines of Christianity, the book is remarkably free of bitterness or spitefulness. On the contrary, what makes the book of singular importance, especially now, is its careful attempt at taking stock of the positive and negative influence Christianity has had in history. This text appeals to those researchers and scholars interested in the work of Franz Brentano and his work on the philosophy of religion, in this case, Christianity.
Franz Brentano is one of the founding fathers of twentieth century philosophy, celebrated for introducing the concept of intentionality to philosophy as well as making significant contributions to ethics and logic. His work exerted great influence on major philosophers such as Edmund Husserl, but also philosophers travelling in the opposite direction, such Gottlob Frege. He counted Sigmund Freud amongst his students and Freud expressed great admiration for his teacher in several letters. Psychology from an Empirical Standpoint is Brentano's most important and brilliant work. It helped to establish psychology as a scientific discipline, but did so in a highly original and distinctive manner by arguing for a form of introspectionism. Brentano argued that consciousness is always unified and that the hallmark of the mind is that one's thoughts are always directed towards something - his famous theory of 'intentionality' - arguments that have deep implications not just for philosophy but psychology, cognitive science and consciousness studies. With a new foreword by Tim Crane.
Franz Brentano (1838-1917) is a key figure in the development of
Twentieth Century thought. It was his work that set Husserl on to
the road of phenomenology and intentionality, that inspired
Meinong's theory of the object which influenced Bertrand Russell,
and the entire Polish school of philosophy.
Franz Brentano (1838-1917) was a key figure in the development of 20th-century thought, influencing the work of philosophers such as Edmund Husserl. This work presents a series of lectures given by Brentano in 1887. It also provides a concise introduction which places Brentano within the history of philosophy and psychology and locates his influence in contemporary thought.
