Description

Wilfrid Sellars' Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind is a seminal work in the history of analytic philosophy. First published in 1956, it challenged the foundationalist motives of logical empiricism and raised doubts about the idea of epistemology. This collection, featuring an introduction by Richard Rorty and a study guide by Robert Brandom, provides a clear and accessible understanding of Sellars' influential philosophical system. The work marks a significant turning point in the development of analytic philosophy, breaking the link between Russell and Ayer and Locke and Hume. With its introduction and study guide, this publication makes Sellars' ideas comprehensible to anyone interested in philosophy or its history. This edition, first published in 1997, offers a valuable insight into the development of analytic philosophy and the philosophy of mind.
