Introducing a major new series

Princeton Foundations of Contemporary PhilosophyScott Soames, series editor

The state-of-the-art books in the series are written by leading experts in major areas of active research in contemporary philosophy—with each book serving as a high-level introduction to advanced think-ing in the area. Although major questions and approaches are covered, the books are neither neutral surveys of the literature, nor highly specialized contributions filling gaps in already well-known research programs. Instead, each presents the author’s own unifying vision of a field or topic as it exists today—its recent history and leading themes, its most exciting new develop-ments, and its most important unanswered questions. The premise of the series is that with so much specialized work being done on so many different topics, there is a need to articulate synoptic views of active areas of research, with an eye to developing com-mon understandings, and charting future progress. The books are designed to have wide appeal to advanced undergraduates and graduate students in philosophy, to provide specialists with the new ideas and unifying perspec-tives of leading experts in their own fields, and to offer compact and comprehensible explanations of neighboring fields to other working professionals. In addition to their use in organizing courses, and providing starting points for graduate seminars, the books are intended to stimulate discussion and debate among philosophers about the present direction, and future course, of their common enterprise.

PhilosophicalLogicJohnP.Burgess

“In a word, this book is terrific. It covers the basics of philosophical logic in a lively, interesting, and informative way.”—Stewart Shapiro, editor of The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Mathematics and Logic

Philosophical Logic is a clear and concise critical survey of nonclassical logics of philosophical interest written by one of the world’s leading authorities on the subject. After giving an overview of classical logic, John Burgess introduces five central branches of nonclassical logic (temporal, modal, condi-tional, relevantistic, and intuitionistic), focusing on the sometimes problematic relationship between formal apparatus and intuitive motivation. Requiring minimal background and arranged to make the more technical material optional, the book offers a choice between an overview and in-depth study, and it balances the philosophical and technical aspects of the subject.

John P. Burgess is professor of philosophy at Princeton University.

Kant and the Early ModernsEditedbyDanielGarber&BéatriceLonguenesse

“This book is a very important contribution to the study of the history of modern philosophy. In highlighting the importance of paying close atten-tion to Kant’s criticisms of his immediate predecessors, the contributors to Kant and the Early Moderns provide new perspectives on Kant, as well as Descartes, Locke, Leibniz, Berkeley, and Hume.”—Edwin McCann, University of Southern California

The contributors, in addition to the editors, are Jean-Marie Beyssade, Lisa Downing, Dina Emundts, Don Garrett, Paul Guyer, Anja Jauernig, Wayne Waxman, and Kenneth P. Winkler.

Daniel Garber is professor of philosophy at Princeton University. Béatrice Longuenesse is professor of philosophy at New York University.

BetweenTwoWorldsA Reading of Descartes’s MeditationsJohn Carriero

“This is an original and powerful reading of the Meditations and a worthy successor to Margaret Wilson’s classic Descartes.”—Lilli Alanen, author of Descartes’s

Concept of Mind

Between Two Worlds is an authoritative

commentary on—and powerful reinterpretation of—the founding work of modern philosophy, Descartes’s Meditations. John Carriero provides a sustained, systematic reading of the whole text, giving a detailed account of the positions against which Descartes was reacting, and revealing anew the unity, meaning, and originality of the Meditations.

John Carriero is professor of philosophy at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Descartes’sChangingMindPeterMachamer&J.E.McGuire

“This is the first book to focus on Descartes’s changing views, and it is welcome.”—Roger Ariew, University of South Florida

Descartes’s works are often treated as a unified, unchanging whole. But in Descartes’s Changing

Mind, Peter Machamer and J. E. McGuire argue that the philosopher’s views, particularly in natural philosophy, actually change radically between his early and later works—and that any interpretation of Descartes must take account of these changes. The first comprehensive study of the most signifi-cant of these shifts, this book also provides a new picture of the development of Cartesian science, epistemology, and metaphysics.

Peter Machamer is professor of history and phi-losophy of science and associate director of the Center for Philosophy of Science at the University of Pittsburgh. J. E. McGuire is professor of history and philosophy of science at the University of Pittsburgh, and a resident fellow of the Center for Philosophy of Science.

Philosophical EssaysScott Soames

“Soames’s work is of an exceptionally high quality, the se-lections made here are truly excellent, and the organization is well thought out.”—Stephen Neale, CUNY Graduate Center

The two volumes of Philosophical Essays

bring together the most important essays writ-ten by one of the world’s foremost philosophers of language. Scott Soames has selected thirty-one essays spanning nearly three decades of thinking about linguistic meaning and the philo-sophical significance of language. A judicious collection of old and new, these volumes include sixteen essays published in the 1980s and 1990s, nine published since 2000, and six new essays.

The two volumes of Philosophical Essays are essential for anyone working on the philosophy of language.

“The Other Within succeeds brilliantly in its twofold purpose. Yovel provides a gripping narrative of Marrano history, with many illuminating examples of the vari-eties of religious (and secular) experience that it encompassed. And he also provides a deep philosophical

analysis—persuasive too!—of Marrano subjectiv-ity, skepticism, and irony as a prefiguring of the modern mind.”—Michael Walzer, Institute for Advanced Study

This is a pioneering philosophical history of the Marranos, Iberian Jews forcibly converted to Christianity.

the crucial roles of power, historical context, and political action is powerful and persuasive. This grand text is an intellectual breath of fresh air!”—Cornel West, Princeton University

DemocracyandKnowledgeInnovation and Learning in Classical AthensJosiahOber

“In this pathbreaking work, Josiah Ober draws on the full ar-ray of modern social science to explain the amazing success of Athenian de-mocracy. He argues persuasively that the Athenians were able to overcome problems of collec-tive action through

the efficient aggregation and use of knowledge, as when Cleisthenes created new tribes that brought together citizens from different parts of Attica. The striking vignettes and episodes from Athenian history conjoined with sophisticated theoretical analyses make for utterly compelling reading. It will enrich social science no less than the writing of ancient history. Since the work of Paul Veyne, there has been nothing like it.”—Jon Elster, Collège de France

“[A]n extremely rich and wide-ranging work, written by one of the fore-most contemporary moral philosophers in France. . . .

AnIntellectualHistoryofCannibalismCătălin AvramescuTranslated by Alistair Ian Blyth

“In intellectual history, cannibals stand for alien and exotic human beings, specimens of our spe-cies who realize its darkest possibilities, usually in places far removed from civilization. Cannibalism both expresses natural law and contravenes it. Avramescu’s book is a tour de force. It explains not only why the figure of the cannibal used to be ubiquitous in moral philosophy, but why it has become extinct.”—Tom Sorell, University of Birmingham

An Intellectual History of Cannibalism is the first book to systematically examine the role of the cannibal in the arguments of philosophers, from the classical period to modern disputes about such wide-ranging issues as vegetarianism and the right to private property.

Cătălin Avramescu is assistant professor of politi-cal science at the University of Bucharest.

TheApologeticsofEvilThe Case of IagoRichard RaatzschTranslated by Ladislaus Löb

“This original, deeply felt, clearly written, and well-argued book combines Shakespearean analysis, moral philosophy, psychology, and phi-losophy of literature—all in a succinct, unified, and impressive way.”—Richard Eldridge, Swarthmore College

This book is a concise philosophical meditation on Iago and the nature of evil, through the ex-ploration of the enduring puzzle found in Shake-speare’s Othello. What drives Iago to orchestrate Othello’s downfall? Instead of treating Iago’s lack of motive as the play’s greatest weakness, The

Apologetics of Evil shows how this absence of motive is the play’s greatest strength.

Richard Raatzsch holds the chair for practical philosophy at the European Business School in Wiesbaden, Germany.

Its message, implied throughout, is that as one of the great values of civilization and one of the es-sentials of personal and psychological integrity, privacy is worth fighting to regain.”—A. C. Grayling, Times (London)

Credit and BlameCharles Tilly

“Drawing upon sources as disparate as Dostoyevski, Darwin, water-cooler conversations and truth commissions, Tilly illustrated how assigning credit and blame stems from and redefines ‘relations between the creditor and the credited, the blamer,

and the blamed.’ Tilly astutely analyzes how people accept credit and society assesses blame, and the commonalities between the two.”—Publishers Weekly

Charles Tilly (1929–2008) was the Joseph L. But-tenwieser Professor of Social Science at Columbia University.

TheRightsofSpringA Memoir of Innocence AbroadDavid Kennedy

One spring more than twenty years ago, David Kennedy visited a Uruguayan prison as part of the first wave of humanitarian activists to take the fight for human rights to the very sites where atrocities were committed. Kennedy was eager to learn what human rights workers could do, ide-alistic about changing the world. But he also had doubts. What could activists really change? Was there something unseemly about humanitarians from wealthy countries flitting into dictatorships, presenting themselves as white knights, and taking in the tourist sites before flying home? Kennedy wrote up a memoir of his hopes and doubts on that trip to Uruguay and combines it here with reflections on what has happened to the world of international humanitarianism since.

David Kennedy is vice president for international affairs at Brown University and holds chairs in law at both Brown and Harvard Law School.

OntheSideoftheAngelsAn Appreciation of Parties and PartisanshipNancyL.Rosenblum

“Part intellectual history, part a study of contemporary politics, Nancy Rosenblum’s exciting, original book poses an energetic challenge to both political theory and to citizens disaffected by democracy today. For those who think democracy would be better without strong political parties, Rosenblum seeks to show that parties and partisanship are central to meaningful political commitment.”—Richard H. Pildes, New York University School of Law

On the Side of the Angels offers an ethics of partisanship that speaks to ques-tions of centrism, extremism, and polarization in American party politics. By rescuing parties from their status as orphans of political philosophy, Rosenblum fills a significant void in political and democratic theory.

Kierkegaard’sJournalsandNotebooksSørenKierkegaardEdited by Niels Jørgen Cappelørn, Alastair Hannay, David Kangas, Bruce H. Kirmmse, George Pattison, Vanessa Rumble & K. Brian Söderquist, in cooperation with the Søren Kierkegaard Research Centre, Copenhagen

Søren Kierkegaard (1813-55) is one of the most important philosophi-cal and theological thinkers of the past two centuries. The Søren Kierkegaard Research Centre at the University of Copenhagen has produced the first complete critical edition of all of Kierkegaard’s writings, published and unpublished. Using this definitive Danish edition and with the support of the Kierkegaard Research Centre and the Danish government, a group of well-known scholars is producing an 11-volume English language edition, including explanatory notes, of Kierkegaard’s Journals and Notebooks. Princeton University Press is publishing Kierkegaard’s Journals and Notebooks as a complement to its edition of Kierkegaard’s Writings. The volumes in Kierkegaard’s Jour-

nals and Notebooks will appear at intervals of about a year and a half.

Bruce H. Kirmmse of Connecticut College is general editor and K. Brian Söderquist of the University of Copenhagen is associate general editor of Kierkegaard’s Journals and Notebooks.
