Ernst Tugendhat's major work, Vorlesungen zur Einfuhrung in die sprachanalytische Philosophie (1976), was translated into English in 1982. Although trained in Heideggerian phenomenological and hermeneutical thinking, Tugendhat increasingly came to believe that the most appropriate approach to philosophy was an analytical one. This influential work grew from that conviction and brought new perspectives to some of the central and abiding questions of metaphysics and the philosophy of language. Presented in a fresh twenty-first-century series livery, and including a specially commissioned preface written by Hans-Johann Glock, illuminating its enduring importance and relevance to philosophical enquiry, this impressive work has been revived for a new generation of readers.
. Unique to Cambridge, this classic book has been revived and rebranded for a twenty-first-century readership
. The English translation of Ernst's Tugendhat's major philosophical work
. Presents Tugendhat's development of his original theory of reference, predication and individuation
. Features a specially commissioned preface written by Hans-Johann Glock
Ernst Tugendhat was a Professor of Philosophy at the Free University of Berlin until his retirement in 1992. His many publications include Vorlesungen uber Ethik (1993) and Ethics and Politics (1992).
