In this book Rorty argues that thinkers such as Nietzsche, Freud, and Wittgenstein have enabled societies to see themselves as historical contingencies, rather than as expressions of underlying, ahistorical human nature or as realizations of suprahistorical goals. This ironic perspective on the human condition is valuable on a private level, although it cannot advance the social or political goals of liberalism. In fact Rorty believes that it is literature not philosophy that can do this, by promoting a genuine sense of human solidarity. A truly liberal culture, acutely aware of its own historical contingency, would fuse the private, individual freedom of the ironic, philosophical perspective with the public project of human solidarity as it is engendered through the insights and sensibilities of great writers. The book has a characteristically wide range of reference from philosophy through social theory to literary criticism. It confirms Rorty's status as a uniquely subtle theorist, whose writing will prove absorbing to academic and nonacademic readers alike.

評分纳博科夫——审美和道德的永恒悖论？ 哈贝马斯的规范性社会批判理论确立了社会中三种互相独立、自主的领域，可以说，这三个独立的领域延续了康德在三大批判所建构的哲学体系，即康德用以回答“什么是人”的三个问题——能够认识什么（真）；能够需要什么（善）；能...

评分“如何讀一本書”的終極答案
评分羅蒂是個很厲害的傢夥，他的文字和邏輯總是讓人感覺各種不對勁，但卻總是說不上不對勁在哪。讀到最後我纔發現，不對勁的原因恰恰在於：其實羅蒂既不像詩人，也不像哲人，而更像個 metaphysician, philosophe 和 theoretecian
