The core of this exciting volume is composed of twenty-three searching and illuminating articles in which Cassirer's investigations, thought, values, and conclusions are defined, examined, and critically evaluated. These include his work on Kant, his contributions to the epistemology of physics and mathematics, his philosophy of the social sciences and of symbolic forms, his studies of mythology, of language and myth, his humanism, his concern with art and literature, and his theory of history.
