Cover of Luca Tateo & Jaan Valsiner: Giambattista Vico and the New Psychological Science (PDF)
Giambattista Vico (1668�1744) was an Italian philosopher, rhetorician, and historian. As one of the great thinkers of the Enlightenment, he exerted tremendous influence on the social sciences. He was the first to stress cultural and linguistic dimensions in the development of both the human mind and social institutions. Although his ideas on the relationship between mind and culture and his epistemology have inspired the work of many scholars in psychology, his sizeable influence has been scarcely acknowledged. The volume is organized in two sections. The first locates Vico in his historical context and in the landscape of contemporary human and social sciences. The second part presents those of Vico”s concepts that seem promising for the development of a new way of looking at psychological phenomena. In the book”s conclusion, Luca Tateo gathers the ideas of the volume”s contributors to suggest future development of the psychological sciences. This book aims to show how Vico”s insights can inspire future research in the psychological sciences. It collects multidisciplinary contributions of leading international scholars that draw upon the thought of this original thinker. Collectively, the contributors remind us of the legacy and continuing influence of this inspiring historical figure.
