The monist

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Monist: An International Journal of General Philosophical Inquiry is a quarterly philosophy journal published by the Open Court Publishing Company.

The magazine was founded by Edward C. Hegeler in 1888. The first editor was his later son-in-law Paul Carus . The first issue appeared in October 1890. After Carus' death in 1919, his wife, Mary Hegeler Carus, was the editor until 1936. With their departure the magazine was discontinued. The new edition takes place since 1962 with the editors Eugene Freeman (1962-1983), John Hospers (1983-1991) and since 1991 Barry Smith . Each issue of the journal has a previously published philosophical topic, to which various authors contribute, so that an anthology is created on each issue.

Charles Sanders Peirce was one of the early authors with a famous series of articles in 1892/92. Bertrand Russell published his theory of logical atomism here . There are also contributions by Karl-Otto Apel , Lewis White Beck, John Dewey , Gottlob Frege , Hans-Georg Gadamer , Charles Hartshorne , Jaakko Hintikka , Sidney Hook , CI Lewis , Ernst Mach , Martha Nussbaum , Hilary Putnam , Willard Van Orman Quine or Gregory Vlastos .
