Part Number: 11989
Details: The scope of John Dewey’s writings—ranging from aesthetics and education to legal and political theory – and his role in the development of twentieth-century philosophy have helped make him a continuing influence on contemporary thought. One of his most significant contributions to the theory of knowledge lay in his application of the principles of instrumentalism to traditional approaches to logical theory. Essays in Experimental Logic contains fourteen of Dewey’s most profound papers on many different aspects of knowledge, reality, and epistemology. These papers on experimental logic are based on the theory that possession of knowledge implies a judgement, resulting from an inquiry or investigation. The presence of this “inquiry stage” suggests an intermediate and mediating phase between the external world and knowledge, an area conditioned by other factors. Expanding upon this foundation, these papers consider the relationship of thought and its subject matter; the antecedents and stimuli of thought, data, and meanings; the objects of thought; control of ideas by facts; and similar topics.
