About the Book

John Wild (1902-1972) was a leading American philosopher noted for his work in existentialism and phenomenology, modes of thought that focus on human consciousness and subjectivity. He made a transition to existential phenomenology after being a major proponent of realism, as well as president of the Association for Realistic Philosophy in 1949. By examining Wild's philosophical development from realism and its search for objective truth to phenomenology, the author concludes that Wild brings realistic concerns to his analysis of existential phenomenology. Moreover, Dr. Kaufman argues that Wild's realistic version of existential phenomenology becomes problematic when Wild strives to establish metaphysical conclusions about the nature of the world and Divine Transcendence from a phenomenological analysis of human existence as lived from within. The analysis of Wild's wide-ranging philosophy raises important issues in ethics, epistemology, metaphysics, and philosophy of religion.

The Author: William E. Kaufman is Rabbi of Temple Beth El, Fall River, Massachusetts and an adjunct professor of Philosophy at Rhode Island College. He received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from Boston University in 1971.

Review :
Dr. William E. Kaufman's thorough and penetrating study of the thought of John Wild renders an important service to the contemporary philosophic community. 'John Wild: From Realism to Phenomenology' brings back to our attention a philosophic position unjustly neglected of late. It also rehearses the emergence of a significant strand in current American thought, namely, a uniquely American version of phenomenology. (John H. Lavely, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, Boston University)
