Kelley in his role as executive editor of the Journal of the History of Ideas, still the premier journal of intellectual history despite what he calls \"the descent [although not the demise] of ideas\". During his 15-year tenure the ]HI has appeared on schedule, turns a profit and enjoys a circulation of nearly 3,000 print subscribers, in addition to the electronic edition on Project Muse. It regularly receives about 150 manuscript submissions per year of which it publishes about 35. The Journal of the History of Ideas remains successful in spite of itself--certainly in spite of its name. Few in the early 21st century would characterize their work using Lovejoy's modernist rubric ''history of ideas\". It is the International Society for Intellectual History, not the International Society for the History of Ideas, and the difference in name indicates a change in emphasis, method, and interest since the JHfs establishment 60 years ago. Early in his tenure as editor of the ]HI he published an article in that Journal on ''What is Happening to the History of Ideas?\" Reprinted in the first issue of Intellectual News it remains one of the most-cited articles by members of this Society.! Less known, perhaps, is his work of the past few years, which expand on that article and update it, detailing the past and looking toward the future of intellectual history. He remains astonishingly productive m this venture. How many septuagenarians undertake a new scholarly program? Since 2000, Kelley has published a dozen articles, given a dozen keynote addresses, and published two books, with the fmal instalment of his historiography trilogy due out in 2005.

Bacon discussed 'literary history' when he was setting out his own division of knowledge where, literary history is listed with two other disciplines: civil and ecclesiastical histories, as Nelles has noted. Shaw in his footnotes to literary history in Bacon's texts, writes that a proposal as large as literary history should be the cooperative work of a Society Winter 2004 or College. Some parts of such an effort had been accomplished after Bacon by Peter Lambeck-but while this work was erudite it did not follow Bacon's topics. Shaw then commends the defmitions of 'literary history' to be found in Morhofs Pofyhistorand Stolle's Introductio in historiam literarium. He gives particular praise to the many books written by translator Gerard Vossius, concluding with a translation from his de Philologica: 'literary history should contain an account of the learned men and their writings, the improvement of sciences, the inventors and the progress of the art'.Z9 What happened to the term in Shaw is a bit confusing, for while Bacon did not really construct a theory for the encyclopaedic historia litteraria, Shaw nevertheless tried to blur the difference between literary history and historia litteraria and redefme Bacon's term by slight of hand. Shaw also declares he will modernise Bacon's prose, he writes in his General Preface: The Method observed in thus rendering them into English, is not that of a direct Translation-which might have left them more obscure than they are; and no way suited this Design-but a kind of open Version, which endeavours to express, in modem English, the Sense of the Author, clear, full, and strong; though' without deviating from him, and if possible, without losing of his Spirit, Force, or Energy.

Rorty's Deconstruction of Philosophy 罗蒂的哲学解构

Thus, they have no need for correspondence theories and equally feel no urge to devise any scheme for correlating cognitive processes with the external world. Truth to pragmatists is simply, \"what is good for us to believe\".29 It is a kind of consensus held by the members of a community, that is, an intersubjective agreement that may be subject to change as soon as better ideas and vocabularies emerge. The pragmatist conception puts both knowledge and truth in the same intellectual brace: making truth or knowledge a body of beliefs or self-descriptions which people hold about themselves at any point in time. Consequently, any inquiry into the nature of knowledge or truth necessarily leads the inquirer to a satisfactory account of how a group of people in any culture arrived at the beliefs they presently hold. An inquiry such as this, to pragmatists, must not be tied to any set of criteria for settling arguments or views. To do this will amount to rendering \"the behaviour of others at least minimally reasonable by our lights\".3o Pragmatists do not accept as objective, the rationality that attempts to make a culture intelligible based on external criteria. The pragmatist and antirepresentationalist point of view of Rorty which we have been examining so far, which is a consequent development of his epistemological behaviourism, is a critique of the epistemology that is based on the governing metaphors (vocabularies) and the use of the mind to grapple external objects in the world. Rorty Winter 2004 denies that the world, mind, and vocabularies can be correlated m causal terms. This antirepresentationalist position, subverts our normative conceptions of truth, rationality and science. Rorty posits that each of these has applications within specific contexts and should not be treated as universal. Rorty's position, which suggests that representationalism be dismissed mainly because it has proven to create pseudo-problems, is itself problematic. For instance, the assertion that history has shown every attempt at representation to be fruitless is too sweeping. One can argue that events from the ancients to our day show that exploring the correlation between mind and reality or between statement and non-linguistic items has been linked to some insights, if not empirically, at least intellectually. We now know more about knowing and knowledge than was ever the case before. We now have psychology and many other sub-disciplines of science, which investigate this correlation and have generated so many concepts that make us better informed. Therefore, it is difficult to grant in general that every attempt to relate reality and mind has or will necessarily lead to pseudo-problems. Moreover, the term pseudoproblem itself is a relative one. It is impossible to determine what to all philosophers and branches of philosophy constitute pseudo-problems without having some ideas about what r","PeriodicalId":360014,"journal":{"name":"Intellectual News","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116022609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This means that the history of bibliography relates to the history of ideas and of their communication, in part by defming the significant bibliographical categories in which a society located those ideas. Even if every library collection is unique in itself, being created under a variety of different historical circumstances, it also forms part of the wider bibliographical map of its society and civilization, whether attention is focussed on a collection as a whole or on individual parts thereof. In this way, a history of bibliographical ideas can supplement traditional history of libraries, which has concentrated on their institutional development, on the history of printing or codicology. To an understanding of how a collection came into being, one can add information on the ways it was organised intellectually, as well as physically, in order to throw light on the role of libraries in the intellectual world of the time. Alfredo Serrai's studies of bibliographical classifications,1 for instance form a contribution to the history of philosophy, not just of library science. Such a project, trying to place the history of libraries within a broader cultural history, is clearest when","PeriodicalId":360014,"journal":{"name":"Intellectual News","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128728862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
