About the author

Alfred Edward Taylor was a British idealist philosopher. He was born in 1869, the son of a Wesleyan minister. Among many distinguished appointments, he held the chair of Moral Philosophy at Edinburgh from 1924 to 1941. His main interests were Platonic philosophy and the theology of Christianity, and his contributions in both these fields have been of far-reaching importance. "Does God Exist?" was his last considerable work on the philosophy of religion before his death in 1945.

Reviews

[Fabrizio Valenza · Rating 5 out of 5]

La chiarezza espositiva degli anglosassoni rimane paradigmatica, anche quando si distacca dal paradigma in uso al tempo della stesura di questo libro (il paradigma platoniano di Schleiermacher), al quale l'autore contrappone quello che tiene pienamente conto delle dottrine non scritte.

[Andrea Forcella · Rating 3 out of 5]

Una chiara introduzione al pensiero di Platone comprensibile a chiunque.
