| Synopsis: |
The present volume is very well placed to meet the urgent need of bringing Shpet's multifaceted work to the attention of Western scholarly communities. It offers original research by leading scholars from the US, UK, Germany, France, and Russia, which covers the central areas of Shpet's work - phenomenology, philosophy of language, cultural theory, and aesthetics - and takes forward the current state of knowledge and debates on his contribution to these fields of enquiry. The volume also contains, for the first time in English translation, the most seminal portions of Shpet's book-length study of hermeneutics, which is his most significant work for contemporary students of cultural theory. The volume consists of three parts. The first part maps out Shpet's legacy in the main areas of his multi-faceted work; the second part examines in closer detail particular aspects of Shpet's philosophical affiliations and contributions in the framework of cultural theory, phenomenology, hermeneutics, and in the field of Russian intellectual history; the final part features the publication of extracts from Shpet's 1918 book on hermeneutics.Scholars, as well as postgraduate and undergraduate students, of philosophy, intellectual history, cultural theory, psychology, and Russian Studies, will find this a helpful and indispensable source of information. |
