Perhaps everything we think, feel, and do is determined, and humans--like stones or clouds--are slaves to the laws of nature. Would that be a terrible state? Philosophers who take the incompatibilist position think so, arguing that a deterministic world would be one without moral responsibility and perhaps without true love, meaningful art, and real rationality. But compatibilists and semicompatibilists argue that determinism need not worry us. As long as our actions stem, in an appropriate way, from us, or respond in some way to reasons, our actions are meaningful and can be judged on their moral (or other) merit. In this highly original work, Nomy Arpaly argues that a deterministic world does not preclude moral responsibility, rationality, and love--in short, meaningful lives--but that there would still be something lamentable about a deterministic world. A person may respond well to reasons, and her actions may faithfully reflect her true self or values, but she may still feel that she is not free. Arpaly argues that compatibilists and semicompatibilists are wrong to dismiss this feeling--for which there are no philosophical consolations--as philosophically irrelevant. On the way to this bittersweet conclusion, Arpaly sets forth surprising theories about acting for reasons, the widely accepted idea that "ought implies can," moral blame, and more.

Jeff Love and Johannes Schmidt offer a fresh translation of Schelling's enigmatic and influential masterpiece, widely recognized as an indispensable work of German Idealism. The text is an embarrassment of riches—both wildly adventurous and somberly prescient. Martin Heidegger claimed that it was "one of the deepest works of German and thus also of Western philosophy" and that it utterly undermined Hegel's monumental Science of Logic before the latter had even appeared in print. Schelling carefully investigates the problem of evil by building on Kant's notion of radical evil, while also developing an astonishingly original conception of freedom and personality that exerted an enormous (if subterranean) influence on the later course of European philosophy from Schopenhauer and Kierkegaard through Heidegger to important contemporary theorists like Slavoj Zðizûek.This translation of Schelling's notoriously difficult and densely allusive work provides extensive annotations and translations of a series of texts (by Boehme, Baader, Lessing, Jacobi, and Herder), hard to find or previously unavailable in English, whose presence in the Philosophical Investigations is unmistakable and highly significant. This handy study edition of Schelling's masterpiece will prove useful for scholars and students alike.

Qu’est-ce donc que cette liberté à laquelle nos sociétés modernes – « libérales » – font si souvent référence ? Que penser des « préférences » des électeurs et des consommateurs, dans un monde baigné de conditionnements publicitaires et médiatiques ? Ce livre invite à réévaluer de telles questions à partir d’un double décalage. Un décalage conceptuel, qui approche la liberté à partir de son envers: le déterminisme. Un décalage temporel, qui recadre les problématiques « libérales » dans le contexte de leur émergence historique à l’époque des Lumières. Pour définir les bases d’une liberté qui ne s’aveugle pas aux conditionnements naturels et sociaux, cet ouvrage propose d’explorer la tradition de pensée qui a été tenue pour l’ennemi le plus radical du libre arbitre, le spinozisme, tel qu’il s’est développé en France entre 1670 et 1790. Cette vision émergente du monde est présentée dans sa dimension imaginaire, avec des outils littéraires et sur une base volontairement indisciplinaire. Le tout avec pour ambition d’instaurer un dialogue permanent entre les textes d’hier et les problèmes d’aujourd’hui. Quinze brefs chapitres proposent une reconstruction méthodique de l’ensemble du système spinoziste, depuis ses fondements métaphysiques jusqu’à ses conséquences esthétiques, en passant par ses implications épistémologiques, psychologiques, éthiques et politiques – le livre constituant une introduction très accessible à la pensée de Spinoza, traduite de son latin géométrique dans le beau français des salons.
