What is the relationship between ideas and objects in the world? Is God a concept or a being? Is reality a creation of the mind or a power beyond it? How does mental experience coordinate with natural laws and material phenomena? \u003ci\u003eThe Bloomsbury Anthology of Transcendental Thought \u003c\/i\u003eis the definitive anthology of responses to these and other questions on the nature and limits of human knowledge by philosophers, theologians, and writers from Plato to Zizek. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe word \"transcendental\" is as prevalent and also as ambiguously defined as the name \"philosophy\" itself. There are as many uses, invocations, and allusions to the term as there are definitions on offer. Every generation of writers, beginning in earnest in ancient Greece and continuing through to our own time, has attempted to clarify, apply, and lay claim to the meaning of transcendental thought. Arranged chronologically, this anthology reflects the diverse uses the term has been put to over the course of two and a half millennia. It lends historical perspective to the abiding importance of the transcendental for philosophical thinking and also some sense of the complexity, richness, and continued relevance of the contested term. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Bloomsbury Anthology of Transcendental Thought\u003c\/i\u003e, the first anthology of its kind, offers teachers and students a new viewpoint on the history and present of transcendental thought.
