Cassirer delves into the most sophisticated and cutting-edge research in a wide range of fields, including ethnology, classics, Egyptology, Assyriology, Ethology, Brain Science, Psychology, Logic, Mathematics, and Theoretical Physics. His command of philosophy, literature, and the arts is truly exceptional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeginning with the problem posed by the meaning of being for philosophy since Plato, Cassirer's The Philosophy of Symbolic Form echoes his earlier work on Kant. However, Cassirer demonstrates that this problem acquires new significance with Kant and the development of modern culture. Through his meticulous reflection and rigorous argumentation, Cassirer weaves his conception of knowledge development into a broadly Kantian and German idealist dynamic-historical perspective of significance and experience that rejects the fundamental opposition between literary, philosophical, and scientific cultures. As a result of his profound vision grounded in careful consideration and reasoning, Cassirer's systematic understanding of the Copernican cosmopolitan-cosmological revolution remains unparalleled in contemporary philosophy, both across the Atlantic and the Pacific.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis new translation aims to make Cassirer's seminal work accessible to a new generation of scholars. Each volume includes a translators introduction by Steve G. Lofts, a foreword by Peter E. Gordon, a glossary of key terms, and an index. By making his work more widely available, we hope to foster further exploration and understanding of Cassirer's profound contributions to philosophy and the broader field of intellectual inquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1190g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032474311\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ernst Cassirer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104810987770,"sku":"9781032474311","price":32.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_3926d4f0-fcc2-4014-a62e-e2d87aca9708.jpg?v=1676565763","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-philosophy-of-symbolic-forms-volume-3-phenomenology-of-cognition-9781032474311","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
