Synopsis :

For courses in American Philosophy and American Studies.

These two volumes present selections from American philosophy, 1720 to the present, and an interpretative narrative of important philosophers working during the same time period.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture:

Nancy A. Stanlick and Bruce S. Silver have put together an anthology that captures the principal figures in American philosophy from the Colonial era into the twenty-first century. The editors are committed to the principle that philosophy in America was vital before there was a United States, and that it remains vigorous into the present. This collection can be appropriately augmented by Philosophy in America: Critical and Interpretive Essays, Volume II, a collection of interpretive and critical chapters on individual philosophers, themes, and leading ideas in the development of American philosophy and speculative thought.
