Written by Étienne Gilson, Thomas Langan, and Armand Maurer, C.S.B., Recent Philosophy offers a comprehensive study of the major philosophical movements and thinkers of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Continuing the acclaimed History of Philosophy series, this volume examines the development of post-Kantian philosophy, existentialism, phenomenology, positivism, neo-Scholasticism, and Christian philosophy. Rather than merely recounting historical facts, the authors focus on the central ideas and enduring significance of each philosopher, making this an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of modern philosophical thought from the perspective of the Catholic intellectual tradition.
