Experience, Abstraction and the Scientific Image of the World.

Festschrift for Vincenzo Fano

The book contains different essays in honor of Vincenzo Fano, for his 60th birthday. They address several foundational issues in the philosophy and metaphysics of science, epistemology, history of science and philosophy, and the relation between philosophy, science, and art. The crucial aspect of the book is the constant dialogue between different forms of knowledge: from science to art, from philosophy to philology, from the classics to contemporary research. This also reflects the breadth of Fano’s philosophical research.

The book contains different essays in honor of Vincenzo Fano, for his 60th birthday. They address several foundational issues in the philosophy and metaphysics of science, epistemology, history of science and philosophy, and the relation between philosophy, science, and art. The crucial aspect of the book-if we may single out one-is the constant dialogue between different forms of knowledge: from science to art, from philosophy to philology, from the classics to contemporary research. This also reflects the breadth of Fano's philosophical research. The essays have been written by leading figures in the respective fields and young researchers alike. It also contains an extensive reply by Vincenzo Fano himself. It is an example of Sellarsian philosophy at its best, a philosophy that strives to "understand how things in the broadest possible sense of the term hang together in the broadest possible sense of the term".
