This collection of Habermas's recent essays on philosophical topics continues the analysis begun in The Philosophical Discourse of Modernity. In a short introductory essay, he outlines the sources of twentieth-century philosophizing, its major themes, and the range of current debates. The remainder of the essays can be seen as his contribution to these debates. Habermas's essay on George Herbert Mead is a focal point of the book. In it he sketches a postmetaphysical, intersubjective approach to questions of individuation and subjectivity. In other essays, he develops his distinctive, communications-theoretic approach to questions of meaning and validity. The book as a whole expands on his earlier efforts to define a middle ground between nostalgic revivals of metaphysical conceptions of reason and radical deconstructions of reason. -- Publisher description.

Work Description

Der Band enthält philosophische Aufsätze. Die ersten drei Beiträge reagieren auf neuere Versuche einer Rückkehr zu metaphysischen Denkformen. Die Aufsätze, die die pragmatische Wende in der Sprachanalyse nachvollziehen, entfalten den Begriff der kommunikativen Vernunft im Kontext zeitgenössischer Bedeutungs- und Handlungstheorien. Dasselbe Thema behandelt der siebte Beitrag aus größerer Distanz, und zwar in Auseinandersetzung mit den kontextualistischen Varianten einer heute dominierenden Vernunftkritik. In den beiden letzten Beiträgen werden zwei Fäden aus diesem Argumentationsgewebe aufgenommen und fortgesponnen: einmal geht es um das Problem der Unaussprechlichkeit des Individuellen, zum anderen um die Frage, warum philosophische Texte, ungeachtet ihres wesentlich rhetorischen Charakters, nicht in Literatur aufgehen.
