In this book Rorty argues that thinkers such as Nietzsche, Freud, and Wittgenstein have enabled societies to see themselves as historical contingencies, rather than as expressions of underlying, ahistorical human nature or as realizations of suprahistorical goals. This ironic perspective on the human condition is valuable on a private level, although it cannot advance the social or political goals of liberalism. In fact Rorty believes that it is literature not philosophy that can do this, by promoting a genuine sense of human solidarity. A truly liberal culture, acutely aware of its own historical contingency, would fuse the private, individual freedom of the ironic, philosophical perspective with the public project of human solidarity as it is engendered through the insights and sensibilities of great writers. The book has a characteristically wide range of reference from philosophy through social theory to literary criticism. It confirms Rorty's status as a uniquely subtle theorist, whose writing will prove absorbing to academic and nonacademic readers alike.

评分所谓德国哲学的晦涩难懂其实是因为翻译腔，这翻译腔之所以中国人看不懂是因为它是用汉字写的，却不是贵国人的母语，而是两成的满大人语框架里塞了八成的日本国语。贵国人就只是货真价实的语言载具，幻想做语言屠夫，莫非真有能违反机器人三定律的铁疙瘩？那都是阿西莫夫对北京...
评分一 当代最有影响力的实用主义哲学是为理查德·罗蒂所主张的一种激进理论，这种理论尖锐地反对主流的哲学立场。主流的哲学性真理观认为，真有一个外在的、客观的、非人类中心主义的标准，而罗蒂认为这种观念对于我们的生活实践来说并无直接意义，或者至多不过有一种修辞学上的...
