Mer om författaren

Stefano Gattei teaches history and philosophy of science at the University of Trento, Italy. He has worked extensively on key issues and authors of contemporary philosophy of science, as well as on the history of early modern astronomy and cosmology. He is the author of Thomas S. Kuhn’s ‘Linguistic Turn’ and the Legacy of Logical Positivism: Incommensurability, Rationality and the Search for Truth (Routledge, 2008), Karl Popper’s Philosophy of Science: Rationality without Foundations (Routledge, 2009), and On the Life of Galileo: Vincenzo Viviani’s Historical Account and Other Early Biographies (Princeton University Press, 2019). He co-edited, with Joseph Agassi, the fourth volume of Paul Feyerabend’s collected philosophical papers: Physics and Philosophy (Cambridge University Press, 2016).Roberta Corvi teaches Theories of knowledge and Philosophy of mind at the Catholic University of Milan. Her research is mainly concerned with English-speaking contemporary epistemology, and several of her papers deal with issues related to rationality and the complexity of knowledge, chiefly focusing on post-positivist epistemology and American pragmatism, so as to identify a transdisciplinary path that emerges in the recently published, Frontiere aperte: Verso un’epistemologia transdisciplinare (Scholé, 2023). Her other monographs include I fraintendimenti della ragione: Saggio su P.K. Feyerabend (Vita e Pensiero, 1992), An Introduction to the Thought of Karl Popper (Routledge, 1997), and Ritorno al pragmatismo: L’alternativa Rorty-Putnam (Mimesis, 2017).
