Summary: On the inheritance of philosophy
Comment: Stanley Cavell stands as one of the most acute interpreters of the
human condition that America has ever produced. _A Pitch of Philosophy_
is part autobiography, part exegesis, and part philosophical reflection on
selfhood and identity. Combining reflection on the course of his
own life with philosophical work of the highest order, Cavell weaves a compelling
tale of what it means to come to know oneself, and to come to know oneself as
a philosopher. Against what can be seen as the existential sterility of
modern Anglo-American analytic philosophy, Cavell awakens the reader to
the intimate connection between philosophy and autobiography. Along the way he candidly
reveals to the reader the ways in which his own life has been a gradual acceptance
of the inheritance of American philosophy. Cavell's may be the most distinctive American
voice in the chorus of modern philosophy to have yet been heard, and _A Pitch of Philosophy_
stands as the crown jewel of his life's work.
