Volume Editor:
This book gathers six trenchant new analyses of the idea of the person as raised by the German philosopher and social theorist Max Scheler (1874â1928). The issues raised in the volume are both timely and perennial, from considerations of postmodernity, phenomenology, and metaphysics, to sharp-edged comparisons with other thinkers, including Immanuel Kant, Martin Heidegger, Emmanuel Levinas, Eric Voegelin, Richard Rorty, and Hannah Arendt.
âThe papers contained in this volume fulfill the promise of its subtitle. They offer new, significant, and interesting contributions to our understanding of Scheler, and especially of the relationship between the phenomenology and his metaphysics. The volume will serve well in advancing the resurgence of interest in Schelerâs philosophy.â in: American Catholic Philosophical Quarterly, Vol. 79, No. 1 (2005)
