dc.description.abstract | In this article, I chart some recent developments in the linguistic contextualist
philosophy of history defended by Quentin Skinner. I attempt to identify several
shifts in the way in which Skinner’s position has been presented and justified,
focusing particularly on his embrace of anti-foundationalism, his focus on rhetoric rather than speech-acts and his concern to recast contextualism as compatible
with other interpretive approaches. In the final section, I reject the notion –
suggested by Skinner and others – that a contextualist philosophy of history might
constitute a distinct form of political theorizing in itself. | |
