Moral particularism asserts that reasons for moral actions are not governed by general principles, but by a mixture of situation bound deliberation and values. Particularism was established in the area of moral philosophy and its main results include delimitation with various forms of moral generalism. Many insights were accumulated along the way. The book claims that a serious contextualist approach needs to embrace particularist normativity. Thesis is then applied to the traditional areas of philosophy such as semantics, epistemology and ontology. This makes it possible to ask questions about the positive and not just negative story and about the wider impact of particularism. The book is an attempt of such a positive story. Foundations are laid for an exciting new field of research in the main systematic branches of philosophy, urging you to rethink the normative basis of semantics, epistemology and metaphysics, in their interweaving with moral thought. The importance of narration and of phenomenology is stressed for these areas. 606 $aContextualism (Philosophy) 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of 606 $aContext (Linguistics) 615 0$aContextualism (Philosophy) 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of. 615 0$aContext (Linguistics) 700 $aPotrc?$b Matjaz?$01523572 701 $aStrahovnik$b Vojko$01523573 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779869303321 996 $aPractical contexts$93763838 997 $aUNINA
