Thought Grassi sought to take up the Heideggerean ''Destruktion'' of metaphysics, grounding his philosophical enterprise instead in the tradition of rhetoric. He identified the Italian humanist tradition as a potential site to begin this development of philosophy, and his works often contain copious references to the Italian humanists.

An invention may be an improvement upon a machine, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
