Long description:

The Routledge Companion to Pragmatism offers 44 cutting-edge chapters?written specifically for this volume by an international team of distinguished researchers?that assess the past, present, and future of pragmatism. Going beyond the exposition of canonical texts and figures, the collection presents pragmatism as a living philosophical idiom that continues to devise promising theses in contemporary debates. The chapters are organized into four major parts:



  • Pragmatism?s history and figures

  • Pragmatism and plural traditions

  • Pragmatism?s reach

  • Pragmatism?s relevance

Each chapter provides up-to-date research tools for philosophers, students, and others who wish to locate pragmatist options in their contemporary research fields. As a whole, the volume demonstrates that the vitality of pragmatism lies in its ability to build upon, and transcend, the ideas and arguments of its founders. When seen in its full diversity, pragmatism emerges as one of the most successful and influential philosophical movements in Western philosophy.



"The Routledge Companion to Pragmatism hits a sweet spot. Well organized and approachable, it offers the novice a fine introduction to this vital tradition. Innovative in its conception and comprehensive in its coverage, it contains much that will inform and challenge even the most knowledgeable specialists."
Robert Brandom, University of Pittsburgh


"This book is not only of critical importance to those who deliver lectures about the historiography of the traditions of philosophy at colloquia. It should also be bought by lecturers who are interested in the reach and relevance of pragmatism to philosophy today." - Jason Wakefield, University of Cambridge
