Truth in Husserl, Heidegger, and the Frankfurt School Critical Retrieval Buch von Lambert Zuidervaart im Angebot

The idea of truth is a guiding theme for German continental philosophers from Husserl through Habermas. In this book, Lambert Zuidervaart examines debates surrounding the idea of truth in twentieth-century German continental philosophy. He argues that the Heideggerian and critical theory traditions have much in common¿despite the miscommunication, opposition, and even outright hostility that have prevailed between them¿including significant roots in the phenomenology of Edmund Husserl. Zuidervaart sees the tensions between Heideggerian thought and critical theory as potentially generative sources for a new approach to the idea of truth. He argues further that the „critical retrieval¿ of insights from German continental philosophy can shed light on current debates in analytic truth theory. Über den Autor Lambert Zuidervaart is Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at the Institute for Christian Studies in Toronto. He is the author of Adorno’s Aesthetic Theory (MIT Press), Artistic Truth, Social Philosophy after Adorno, Religion, Truth, and Social Transformation, and other books.
