Book Description
Structured into three major parts, the volume reflects the central concerns of Casey’s writings: an evolving phenomenology of imagination, memory, and place; representation and landscape painting and art; and edges, glances, and voice. Each part begins with an extended interview that defines and explains the topics, concepts, and stakes of each area of research. Readers are thus offered an introduction to Casey’s fascinating body of work, and will gain a new insight into particular aspects and applications of Casey’s research.
With a complete bibliography and an introduction that at once stresses each of Casey’s areas of research while putting into perspective their overarching themes, this authoritative volume identifies the overall coherence and interconnections of Edward S. Casey’s work and his impact on contemporary thought.
Editorial Reviews
Review
Edward S. Casey is widely known for his honest, attentive openness to phenomena, for his finely nuanced accounts of experience, and for his compelling descriptions of our shared world. The essays and interviews that comprise this work confirm that Casey numbers among the most incisive and creative philosophers today, making original contributions to fields broadly conceived as epistemology, aesthetics, the history of philosophy, and human geography. — Anthony Steinbock, Professor of Philosophy, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, USA Published On: 2013-03-26
