• Sommario/riassunto: This collection represents the rediscovery of Josiah Royce’s rich legacy that has occurred over the past decade.The first part presents a series of historical explorations. The second takes up practical extensions of ; Royce’s work, bringing his ideas and methods to bear on contemporary philosophical matters. Among the topics addressed are the paradoxes of individualism; loyalty, democracy, and community; Royce’s efforts to respond to historical American racism; his contributions to engaged inter-faith religious discourse; the promise of his theory of error for a feminist account of knowledge; and his ethics of loyalty as a component in medical ethics.
