About this title

Synopsis

This volume provides a geographically and historically diverse overview of philosophical traditions that establish a deep connection between truth and practice, or even see truth itself as a kind of practice.

Under the label “practices of truth” are subsumed disparate approaches that can be fruitfully brought together to explore the intersections between truth and practice in philosophy as well as to address a range of intriguing questions about truth that fall outside the domain of pure theory. The chapters in this volume provide a variety of perspectives on key practices of truth in philosophy and in the history of philosophy, enriching our understanding of the different ways in which truth and practice may be connected, including the role of certain practices in enabling philosophical insight into truth, the ways in which truth may actually be embedded in some practices, and the impact of truth on practice.

Practices of Truth in Philosophy will appeal to scholars and advanced students interested in the history of philosophy, comparative philosophy, ethics, epistemology, and the metaphysics of truth.

About the Author

Pietro Gori is Senior Researcher and Invited Lecturer at the NOVA University Lisbon (Institute of Philosophy).

Lorenzo Serini is Assistant Professor and Director of Student Experience and Progression in the Philosophy Department at the University of Warwick, where he obtained his PhD in philosophy in 2021. His areas of research and teaching include post-Kantian European philosophy (especially, Nietzsche), the history of skepticism, and regulative epistemology.
