When John Dewey died in 1952, he was memorialized as America's most famous philosopher, revered by liberal educators and deplored by conservatives, but universally acknowledged as his country's intellectual voice. Many things conspired to give Dewey an extraordinary intellectual eminence: He was immensely long-lived and immensely prolific; he died in his ninety-third year, and his intellectual productivity hardly slackened until his eighties. Professor Alan Ryan offers new insights into Dewey's many achievements, his character, and the era in which his scholarship had a remarkable impact. He investigates the question of what an American audience wanted from a public philosopher - from an intellectual figure whose credentials came from his academic standing as a philosopher, but whose audience was much wider than an academic one. Ran argues that Dewey's "religious" outlook illuminates his politics much more vividly than it does the politics of religion as ordinarily conceived. He examines how Dewey fit into the American radical tradition, how he was and was not like his transatlantic contemporaries, why he could for so long practice a form of philosophical inquiry that became unfashionable in England after 1914 at the latest.
书的叙事确实有点乱,经常是一堆评述的堆砌,看不出思想线索。但能完成这样的intellectual biography本身就是一项壮举,意味着Ryan要把杜威从哲学,伦理学,教育学,宗教理论,艺术理论,以及政论文章的基本观点全部总结和分析一遍,还要加上不少对其他有关人物的评析,这也不是一般学者有能力做到的。当然一个很不读者友好的地方在于缺少一个附录列出杜威的生平大事以及十几本重要著作(加一点简要介绍)和一些重要文章。
