Features: This book attempts to provide a detailed account and fair evaluation of Richard Rorty's philosophical thought. The author believes that Rorty's advocated philosophy of the Great Humanities and the post-philosophical culture are a landmark sign and practical achievement of the gradual convergence from separation between the Anglo-American analytic philosophy tradition and the European continental philosophy tradition, as well as the humanistic and scientistic trends in contemporary Western philosophy. Its that our human society is beginning to enter an age without mirrors or essence. Rorty's philosophical thought is an important link in the new developments of contemporary Western philosophy.
