{"product_id":"9780826418340","title":"A Century of Philosophy : Hans Georg Gadamer in Conversation with Riccardo Dottori (Athlone Contemporary European Thinkers)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA philosophical and historical testament to the twentieth century, this volume consists of a wide-ranging series of interviews conducted in 1999\/2000 between the then centenarian and his former assistant and associate of over thirty years, Riccardo Dottori.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese ten dialogues distill and situate Gadamer's philosophy in the context of what has arguably been the bloodiest century in human history. In the course of the interviews, Gadamer addresses-often critically-the work of a wide variety of philosophers, including Heidegger, Nietzsche, Jaspers, Popper, Vico, Habermas, Rorty, and Derrida. He also elaborates on German philosophy during the Nazi period; and, in one of the more fascinating conversations, we are treated to a glimpse of Gadamer's personal perspective on the question of Heidegger's Nazism, including a discussion of the political influence that great philosopher's wife, Elfirde, had on him that tends to contradict most other published accounts. With the possible exception of his autobiography 1985, A Century of Philosophy is perhaps the most accessible expression of Gadamer's life and work in English today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Continuum Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42732738543691,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1460.0,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9780826418340-1.jpg?v=1783362863","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/products\/9780826418340","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
