Beginning with an introduction to contemporary philosophical debates about the mind and pragmatism, the essays examine and clarify the discursive divide between analytic and Continental philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilfrid Sellars tackled the difficult problems of reconciling Pittsburgh school–style analytic thought, Husserlian phenomenology, and the Myth of the Given.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This collection of essays brings into dialogue the analytic philosophy of Wilfrid Sellars—founder of the Pittsburgh school of thought—and phenomenology, with a special focus on the work of Edmund Husserl. The book's wide-ranging discussions include the famous Myth of the Given but also more traditional problems in the philosophy of mind and phenomenology such as the\u003cbr\u003e status of perception and imagination\u003cbr\u003e nature of intentionality\u003cbr\u003e concept of motivation\u003cbr\u003e relationship between linguistic and nonlinguistic experiences\u003cbr\u003e relationship between conceptual and preconceptual experiences\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Moreover, the volume addresses the conflicts between Sellars's manifest and scientific images of the world and Husserl's ontology of the life-world. The volume takes as a point of departure Sellars's criticism of the Myth of the Given, but only to show the many problems that label obscures. Contributors explain aspects of Sellars's philosophy vis-à-vis Husserl's phenomenology, articulating the central problems and solutions of each. The book is a must-read for scholars and students interested in learning more about Sellars and for those comparing Continental and analytic philosophical thought.\u003cbr\u003e Contributors\u003cbr\u003e Walter Hopp\u003cbr\u003e Wolfgang Huemer\u003cbr\u003e Roberta Lanfredini\u003cbr\u003e Danilo Manca\u003cbr\u003e Karl Mertens\u003cbr\u003e Antonio Nunziante\u003cbr\u003e Jacob Rump\u003cbr\u003e Daniele De Santis\u003cbr\u003e Michela Summa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40976194895969,"sku":"9780821425305","price":84.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_37590971_57f251a5-2261-4f85-afdf-f6c9f3fbc318.jpg?v=1762190382","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780821425305-wilfrid-sellars-and-phenomenology","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
