Philosophy and the Language of the People de Lodi Nauta

Philosophy and the Language of the People

Autor Lodi Nauta
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 apr 2024
Which language should we use in philosophy: technical or common language? Medieval philosophers and Renaissance humanists differed widely on this matter. This book shows how an appeal to common language by humanists and philosophers such as Hobbes and Locke led to a democratization of language and knowledge.

Recenzii

'Nauta is among the most distinguished historians of philosophy today. His study breaks new ground by concentrating on a vital issue in the early modern rivalry between humanism and scholasticism which still has great resonance in modern academe: the advantages and disadvantages that accrue to philosophy, or any professionalized study, from employing a special technical vocabulary to discuss philosophical problems.' James Hankins, Harvard University
'This book is a great and inspiring tour d'horizon into philosophical reflection on the use of language – and, consequently, on linguistic practice – from the emergence of Renaissance humanism to major thinkers such as Hobbes and Locke​. The author invites us into his novel and fascinating story of the genesis of Renaissance and Early Modern (and even contemporary) philosophy.' Jan Papy, Catholic University of Leuven
