Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the foundations of philosophy, Tom Rockmore challenges the traditional view established by Parmenides that thought and being are identical. He argues against the existence of a non-mind-dependent reality, advocating instead for a constructivist perspective where knowledge is shaped by mental constructs. The book traces the evolution of philosophical thought from ancient figures like Plato and Aristotle to modern thinkers such as Kant and Hegel, revealing how these ideas can be reinterpreted through a contemporary lens, fostering new connections in philosophical discourse.
