Contingence, ironie & solidarité

Blurb

Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity, is a book by American philosopher Richard Rorty, based on two sets of lectures he gave at University College, London, and at Trinity College, Cambridge.
In contrast to his earlier work, Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature, Rorty mostly abandons attempts to explain his theories in analytic terms and creates an alternate conceptual schema to that of the "Platonists" he rejects, in which "truth" is considered unintelligible and meaningless.
The book is divided into three parts: Contingency, Ironism and Theory, Cruelty and Solidarity; each part consists of three chapters.
