Together, they demonstrate that Rorty offers a compelling and coherent ethical vision. The book's chapters, grouped thematically, explore Rorty's emphasis on the importance of moral imagination, social relations, language, and literature as instrumental for ethical self-transformation, as well as for strengthening what Rorty called \"social hope,\" which entails constant work toward a more democratic, inclusive, and cosmopolitan society and world.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeveral contributors address the ethical implications of Rorty's commitment to a vision of political liberalism without philosophical foundations. Others offer critical examinations of Rorty's claim that our private or individual projects of self-creation can or should be held apart from our public goals of ameliorating social conditions and reducing cruelty and suffering. Some contributors explore hurdles that impede the practical applications of certain of Rorty's ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Ethics of Richard Rorty \u003c\/i\u003ewill appeal to scholars and advanced students interested in American philosophy and ethics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Dieleman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032074892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032074894\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/06\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Susan Dieleman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44057131352319,"sku":"9781032074894","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_df596e26-56c3-4849-bc5d-6aa815e92f39.jpg?v=1685045213","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-ethics-of-richard-rorty-susan-dieleman-9781032074894","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
