|a The essential provides a brief introduction to the main features of Richard Rorty's neopragatism. At the same time, it offers a systematic guide to a fruitful reading of Rorty. The author proposes to read it as a fragile balance of pragmatism and romanticism by which Rorty seeks to change our self-image. Moreover, he elucidates this transformative ambition through a sketch of "Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity" and the utopian figure of the liberal ironist. The essential concludes with a reference to Rorty's hitherto unrecognized ethico-political motivation and with a methodological suggestion for further reading of his texts: One must apply the pragmatist method to himself. The content Introduction: Reading Rorty's work as a balance of pragmatism and romanticism Revolutionary language game pragmatism after the linguistic turn The strong romantic dimension of Rorty's neopragmatism The liberal utopia of a combination of public pragmatism and private romanticism in Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity. Conclusion: Democratic Anti-Authoritarianism - Rorty's Ethical-Political Motivation The target groups Students and teachers of social sciences and philosophy The author Dr. Martin Müller is a flight captain and lecturer in philosophy at the Munich Volkshochschule.
