Concept of a Philosophical Jurisprudence

Viac o knihe

This collection features over a hundred essays and reviews by Oakeshott, spanning from 1926 to 1951, previously unpublished in one volume. A new editorial introduction highlights the significance of these works, particularly a lengthy essay on jurisprudence, which is central to Oakeshott's philosophy. The anthology contextualizes his thought by engaging with prominent figures in the humanities and social sciences, such as Leo Strauss and A.N. Whitehead, thereby enriching the understanding of his intellectual landscape.
