This collection of essays honors Robert Sokolowski on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. Sokolowski, one of phenomenology’s most accomplished practitioners for over thirty-five years, has addressed a broad range of issues central to philosophical reflection. His writings embody a passion for ‘the truthful’ and ‘the good’, the two themes to which most of the present essays address their concern. These essays consider Sokolowski’s work directly, explicitly taking up themes he has addressed over the entirety of his career. The essays cover nearly the full range of Sokolowski’s interests: his view of philosophy; his phenomenology of language and his account of the relation between language and being; his phenomenology of moral action; and his phenomenological theology of disclosure.
