Abstract

"In The Philosopher's Calling: An Yves R. Simon Reader, Torre sets up a dialog between Yves Simon and his most competent commentators, all well-known contemporary Thomists. Simon was a political theorist, a student of Jacques Maritain, and one of the founders of 20th century Neo-Thomism. In 1958, the American Catholic Philosophical Association awarded him its Aquinas Medal, which had earlier been given to Maritain and Etienne Gilson; later awardees included Josef Pieper, Bernard Lonergan, Mortimer Adler, Karol Wojtyla (later Pope John Paul II), Alasdair MacIntyre, Eleonore Stump, and Remi Brague. Simon was also a visiting professor at Notre Dame from 1938 to 1948, and his papers are housed here today. Simon's work, however, is still little-known in English, and there is as yet no English biography of him. Michael Torre, in addition to providing an erudite and helpful introduction to Simon's life and thought, has selected key texts from Simon's entire oeuvre, dividing them into three sections: on knowledge, on freedom, and on community. The selections are long enough to be substantive and contain sustained and complete arguments. Each selection also has its own proper foreword by an eminent scholar, familiar with Simon's work, who lays out the necessary context for the reader. The result is a highly readable introduction to the thought of a key and underappreciated modern philosopher"--

Abstract

Monahan's reading of individual philosophers, including the work of Spinoza, sixteenth-century advocates of religious toleration, and the radical Diggers and Levellers of England in the mid- seventeenth century, constitutes a convincing overview of the political theory of the period.

Abstract

This book presents the results of a large-scale experiment into interpretations of the metaphor “the Nation as a Body” among 1,800+ respondents from 30 linguistic and cultural backgrounds. In this first account of an empirical study of cross-cultural global metaphor interpretation of that scale, Musolff confirms that the meanings of metaphors are complex, culturally mediated and may differ for senders and recipients. The book provides a historical and cultural map of the traditions underlying differences in how the nation as a body – or, “the body politic” – is understood. Musolff challenges the hypotheses of the universality of “the nation” as a predominantly male-gendered and hierarchically organized concept and, in so doing, puts into question some of the key presuppositions of traditional historical and cognitive approaches to metaphor. For scholars and students of figurative language, the book lays out methodological foundations for cross-cultural metaphor comparison and reveals hidden meaning differences in political metaphor in English as lingua franca.
