This posthumous volume brings together a much wider selection, written over some forty years. His legacy lives on in this masterful work, the first collection ever published of Williams's essays on the history of philosophy. The subjects range from the sixth century B.C. to the twentieth A.D., from Homer to Wittgenstein by way of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Hume, Sidgwick, Collingwood, and Nietzsche. Often one would be hard put to say which part is history, which philosophy. Both are involved throughout, because this is the history of philosophy written philosophically. Historical exposition goes hand in hand with philosophical scrutiny. Insights into the past counteract blind acceptance of present assumptions. In his touching and illuminating introduction, Myles Burnyeat writes of these essays: "They show a depth of commitment to the history of philosophy seldom to be found nowadays in a thinker so prominent on the contemporary philosophical scene." The result celebrates the interest and importance to philosophy today of its near and distant past. The Sense of the Past is one of three collections of essays by Bernard Williams published by Princeton University Press since his death. In the Beginning Was the Deed: Realism and Moralism in Political Argument, selected, edited, and with an introduction by Geoffrey Hawthorn, and Philosophy as a Humanistic Discipline, selected, edited, and with an introduction by A. W. Moore, make up the trio. 606 $aPhilosophy -- History 606 $aPhilosophy, Ancient 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 606 $aPhilosophy$xHistory 606 $aPhilosophy & Religion$2HILCC 606 $aPhilosophy$2HILCC 615 4$aPhilosophy -- History. 615 4$aPhilosophy, Ancient. 615 4$aPhilosophy, Modern. 615 0$aPhilosophy$xHistory 615 7$aPhilosophy & Religion 615 7$aPhilosophy 676 $a190 676 $a109 700 $aWilliams$b Bernard, $0129032 702 $aBurnyeat$b Myles, 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778215903321 996 $aThe Sense of the Past$93861419 997 $aUNINA
