Scope
Aims, scope and focus
Our perimeter is drawn around the peninsula of Italy. Italian philosophy has in recent years been ushered ever more determinedly into the limelight — a number of major academic publishers have book series devoted to Italian thought: SUNY Press, Seagull, MIT, Bloomsbury, and notable work has long been carried out by Stanford University Press, Semiotext(e), and the University of Minnesota Press, among others. A Society for Italian Philosophy has been founded. If we are compelled to limit our scope, it cannot avoid a certain measure of arbitrariness; and yet Italian thought in particular has proved itself to be a genuine original in the context of the philosophy of the last century and to have made a crucial intervention in philosophy in the state in which it found itself in the 1990’s, as the almost immeasurably powerful thrust of the French philosophy of the post-war years and the 1960’s in particular was beginning to ebb.
