Biografisk notat
Robert C. Solomon is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin. He is author of several best-selling textbooks and numerous monographs.Solomon's work exhibits a fine understanding of the complexity of the history of ideas. He is capable of overlooking differences of method and agenda to find the evolving core of ideas beneath that bring a unity to western philosophical thought, and so he manages to bring the <i>enfant terrible</i>— existentialism— home to its roots. This is a very important achievement...
