The book discusses Franz Brentano’s impact on Austrian philosophy. It contains both a critical reassessment of Brentano’s place in the development of Austrian philosophy at the turn of the 20th century and a reevaluation of the impact and significance of his philosophy of mind or ‘descriptive psychology’ which was Brentano's most important contribution to contemporary philosophy and to the philosophy in Vienna. In addition, the relation between Brentano, phenomenology, and the Vienna Circle is investigated, together with a related documentation of Brentano's disciple Alfred Kastil (in German). The general part deals with the ongoing discussion of Carnap's "Aufbau" (Vienna Circle Lecture by Alan Chalmers) and the philosophy of mind, with a focus on physicalism as discussed by Carnap and Wittgenstein (Gergely Ambrus). As usual, two reviews of recent publications in the philosophy of mathematics (Paolo Mancosu) and research on Otto Neurath's lifework (Jordi Cat/Adam Tuboly)are included as related research contributions. This book is of interest to students, historians, and philosophers dealing with the history of Austrian and German philosophy in the 19th and 20th century.

O autorovi

Denis Fisette is professor in the department of philosophy at Université du Québec à Montréal and he teaches philosophy of mind, phenomenology and the history of philosophy in Austria and Germany. He studied philosophy in Montreal (Université de Montréal), in Germany (Freie Universität Berlin, 1982-1985), and in USA (postdoctoral research at Stanford University, 1987-1989). In recent years, his historical research has focused more specifically on the philosophical program of Franz Brentano and his successors (including Husserl's early phenomenology) while his research in the field of philosophy of mind currently bares on emotions and emotional awareness in general.
Guillaume Fréchette is project director at the University of Salzburg. His research is devoted to the Austro-German tradition. He studies the relation of this tradition both to other trends of 19th Century philosophy and to contemporary philosophy of consciousness and mind.
