This is the first comprehensive volume in English on Cassirer's philosophy for over seventy years. Eleven leading Cassirer scholars address all of the key aspects of Cassirer's multi-faceted thought and situate them in the wider context of his philosophy of culture. Their essays demonstrate the depth and richness of a philosophical enterprise that still awaits recognition as one of the most original contributions to twentieth-century philosophy. Interpreting Cassirer will prove invaluable not only for Cassirer scholars and researchers of early twentieth-century philosophy, but also for scholars of the philosophy of culture, language, science, art, history, and mind.

Reviews for Interpreting Cassirer: Critical Essays

'This volume is strong both in its explication of the basic themes contained in Cassirer's texts as well as in providing diverse and unique interpretations of these texts. … in a similar way, this volume should appeal to both Analytic and Continental readers of Kant and the Neo-Kantians. It exemplifies the very breadth that Cassirer practiced in his substantial and exciting intellectual career.' Jeffrey A. Bernstein, Metascience
