Review # 1 was written on 2021-01-26 00:00:00 Jo Ellen Taube This book will be more useful to people who already have a pretty good grounding in Continental philosophy broadly speaking. Several of the essays were too obscurely written--but in a more analytic vein, ironically enough--for my comprehension. Standouts include "The History of Philosophy as Philosophy" and "Morality Critics." As a whole, the collection helped me get a better understanding of why Continental philosophy is more than just a certain way of writing, but has more to do with the particular concerns of particular philosophers, the questions they address (or eschew, depending), and the variety of ways they go about addressing them.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-05-22 00:00:00 Bruce Guarino Focused too much on his biography.
