A Short History of Western Philosophy
First published in English in 1976, Hirschberger's A Short History of Western Philosophy is a condensed history of philosophy from the Pre-Socratics through to the 1960s. This new edition follows the division of the original text into four parts: AncientPhilosophy, Medieval Philosophy, Modern Philosophy (17th and 18th century), and 19th and 20th century Philosophy. The new version contains a new preface and introduction, and a new fifth part on Analytical Philosophy in the 19th and 20th century period by the editor Clare Hay. Hirschberger writes from a moral/theological perspective and dismisses Analytical Philosophy as failing to cast light on the human condition. Clare Hay helps the reader to further analyse Hirschberger's writings and highlights the importance of Analytical Philosophy as the starting point for the development of computing and artificial intelligence. Artificial Intelligence has opened new lines of thought and raised new moral questions still to be discussed in this so-called non-ideological age.
A Short History Western Philosophy
A study of the historical development of philosophy both requires and stimulates intellectual detachment. The person who limits himself to the present can easily fall a prey to passing fashions; he becomes a slave of the latest -ism. Intellectually rootless and inexperienced, he succombs to something that may exercise considerable attraction at this particular moment, but that soon withers and passes. For example, Ernst Haeckel's theories once exercised an enormous fascination on all sorts of people; they were even hailed as the definitive word in philosophy. Nowadays they are more likely to cause amusement than anything else. The same may be said of Nietzsche's philosophy, or materialism, or vitalism, or idealism.
Historia de la filosofía I
La presente obra es ya un clásico de la historiografía filosófica. Publicada en castellano por primera vez en 1954, ha contribuido a la formación en filosofía de varias generaciones tanto en España con en América Latina. Johannes Hirschberger aspira a fundir la actividad historiográfica con la pensante, ya que su intención es ofrecer un texto suficientemente amplio y condensado a la vez, que logre resumir con viveza las principales corrientes de las distintas épocas y el pensamiento de los autores. Con esta nueva edición, revisada a fondo y ampliada hasta nuestros días, sobre todo en lo referente a la bibliografía, la filosofía española y las últimas corrientes de pensamiento, Herder Editorial quiere rendir homenaje a uno de sus grandes autores y orientar la mirada de los amantes de la filosofía hacia un espejo donde se reflejan las caras e inquietudes de nuestra época. Este tomo primero abarca el periodo de los presocráticos a principios del siglo XVII.
