Philosophical tales: being an alternative history revealing the characters, the plots and the hidden scenes that make up the true story of philosophy
The history of philosophy is filled with great tales--many of them fictions, misrepresentations, falsehoods, lies and fibs.

Zusammenfassung: | The history of philosophy is filled with great tales--many of them fictions, misrepresentations, falsehoods, lies and fibs. Or are they just misstatements, prevarications, and narratives not entirely based on fact? In the true spirit of a broad philosophical debate, author Cohen dips a toe into the great sea of philosophy to collect, deconstruct, and relate many of history's great--and not so great--philosophical tales. Enlightening and entertaining, this book examines a few of the fascinating biographical details of history's greatest philosophers (alas, mostly men) and highlights their contributions to the field. By examining the seeming trivialities of philosophers' lives--and skewering a few cherished myths along the way--Cohen provides us with illuminating insights that will encourage a more active, critical way of thinking.--From publisher description. |
