About this title

Synopsis

Professeur a l'Universite Harvard, a la fois en philosophie et en education, de 1952 a 1992, Israel Scheffler est a la fois un remarquable heritier du pragmatisme, dont il a repris et adapte un certain nombre de theses centrales et un philosophe analytique particulierement perspicace. Dans le present ouvrage, il etudie, dans une perspective educative, quelques uns des plus importants concepts de la theorie de la connaissance (savoir, verite, comprehension, croyance, etc.), articule avec finesse les points de vue semantique, logique et epistemologique sur les themes qu'il aborde tout en discutant et evaluant la portee d'arguments developpes par C.I. Lewis, J.L. Austin ou encore Gilbert Ryle. Il offre donc des ressources precieuses a qui ressent la necessite d'articuler aux questions centrales de la philosophie les interrogations propres a la pratique et a la reflexion educatives. Traduit pour la premiere fois en francais, Les conditions de la connaissance est ici precede d'un essai introductif par Michel Le Du, qui s'emploie a situer la pensee educative de Scheffler aussi bien au sein de sa demarche generale en philosophie que par rapport aux etapes de sa formation intellectuelle.

Books4Cause doesn?t raise funds or rely on government grants. All of our funding comes from selling a portion of used books donated to us. Our main goal is to recirculate books back into the hands of people who will read and treasure them. We support both local and global initiatives. Through partnering with the African Library Project, we have built over 120 libraries in nursery schools, elementary schools, high schools, and universities across 18 countries in Africa. Our pop-up free library program in Chicago distributes free books in under-served neighborhoods throughout the city, giving necessary resources to children, adults, and families who otherwise may not have been able to access them.
