Summary: | With The Life of Reason in an Age of Terrorism, Charles Padrn and Kris Skowroski (editors) gather together a broad assortment of contributions that address the germaneness of George Santayana's (1863-1952) social and political thought to the world of the early twenty-first century in general, and specifically to the phenomenon of terrorism.The essays treat a broad range of philosophical and historical concerns: the life of reason, the philosophy of the everyday, fanaticism, liberalism, barbarism, egoism, and relativism. The essays reflect a wide range of viewpoints and perspectives, but all coalesce around discussions of how Santayana's thought fits in with and enhances an understanding of both our challenging times, and our uncertain future.Contributors are: Cayetano Estbanez, Matthew Caleb Flamm, Nra Horvth, Jacquelyn Ann Kegley, Till Kinzel, Katarzyna Kremplewska, John Lachs, Jos Beltrn Llavador, Eduardo Mendieta, Daniel Moreno Moreno, Luka Nikolic, Charles Padrn, Giuseppe Patella, Daniel Pinkas, Herman Saatkamp, Jr., Matteo Santarelli, Krzysztof Piotr Skowroski and Andrs Tutor. |
