The topic of foundations has long been the focus of philosophical debate. Critiques of the claim to absolute knowledge, to ultimate ground, and to essential truth have called into question the very desire and need for founding principles. The concept of foundation has itself come under extensive scrutiny. The fifth volume of the Continental Philosophy series addresses the problem of a contemporary world devoid of foundations. It seeks to explore a post-foundational context to subverted truths, shattered indentities, and fragmented cultures. The continental tradition of philosophy has long focused its energies on the question of foundations from Kant and Hegel, Nietzsche and Kierkegaard, Heidegger and Gadamer, Foucault and Derrida, Lyotard and Deleuze. From this vantage point with its wealth of perspectives, the essays reopen the conventional understanding of the classical themes upon which philosophy has been based since its inception.
