Genia Schonbaumsfeld closes this gap and offers new readings of\u003cbr\u003eKierkegaard's and Wittgenstein's conceptions of philosophy and religious belief. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChapter one documents Kierkegaard's influence on Wittgenstein, while chapters two and three provide trenchant criticisms of two prominent attempts to compare the two thinkers, D. Z. Phillips and James Conant. In chapter four, Schonbaumsfeld develops Kierkegaard's and Wittgenstein's concerted\u003cbr\u003ecriticisms of the 'spaceship view' of religion and defends it against the common charges of 'fideism' and 'irrationalism'. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs well as contributing to contemporary debate about how to read Kierkegaard's and Wittgenstein's work, \u003cem\u003eA Confusion of the Spheres\u003c\/em\u003e addresses issues which not only concern scholars of Wittgenstein and Kierkegaard, but anyone interested in the philosophy of religion, or the ethical aspects of\u003cbr\u003ephilosophical practice as such.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Genia Schonbaumsfeld\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199581962\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenia Schonbaumsfeld is a Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Southampton.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40435096256627,"sku":"9.7802E+12","price":80.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_e7b595d3-c02b-4cc2-8e56-81835aab97f2.jpg?v=1663076855","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/a-confusion-of-the-spheres-kierkegaard-and-wittgenstein-on-philosophy-and-religion-9780199581962","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
