Books in the Intersections: Continental and Analytic Philosophy series

Based on a detailed analysis of gender in Stanley Cavell's treatment of the skeptical problem, this book addresses the relationship between gender and religion in modern skepticism. It claims that a religious problem underlies Cavell's understanding of the feminine.

Arguably Soren Kierkegaard and Friedrich Nietzsche are the two most significant moral philosophers of the nineteenth century. The author argues that, despite the perceived stylistic opacity of these thinkers, their work does admit of comparison and rigorous analytic scrutiny, which in turn yields fresh insights into their philosophy.
