Can original philosophy be done while simultaneously engaging in the history of philosophy? Such a possibility is questioned by analytic philosophers who contend that history contaminates good philosophy, and by historians of philosophy who insist that theoretical predecessors cannot be ignored. Believing that both camps are misguided, the contributors to this book present a case for historical philosophy as a valuable enterprise.

The contributors include: Todd L. Adams, Lilli Alanen, Jos? Bernardete, Jonathan Bennett, John I. Biro, Phillip Cummins, Georges Dicker, Daniel A. Dombrowski, Daniel Garber, Josiah Gould, Jorge J.E. Gracie, Daniel Graham, Charles Griswold, James Lawler, Rudolf Luthe, Edward H. Madden, George Mavrodes, Gerald E. Myers, Jonathan R?e, Frithjof Rodi, Kenneth L. Schmitz, Vladimir Shtinov, David G. Stern, Robert Turnbull, James Van Cleve, Frederick Van De Pitte, Henry Beatch, and Richard Watson.
Industry Reviews
""An informative and very practical introduction to the history/philosophy debate containing numerous examples of how this gap might be bridged. Because of the quality and variety of papers this book should also be of independent value to readers with a general interest in the figures discussed." Canadian Philosophical Reviews "Hare deserves commendation both for his role in organizing the conference which created these essays and for an editorial eye which has woven them into a coherent pattern." Teaching Philosophy ". . . this work will be appreciated by advanced students and faculty. Recommended for all academic and research libraries with substantial philosophy collections." Choice
