Abstract

Richard Rorty’s philosophy of mind is the foundation for its neo-pragmatism thought. This may seem strange at first sight, however, when taking a closer look we can find the links between them. When Richard Rorty first writes Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature, he was not just establishing a justification for pragmatism and/or for the foundations of a new epistemology; in fact, Rorty was creating the foundations of thinking about the role of humanities in the construction of modern man. This means that Richard Rorty is delivering the conditions to think seriously about human consciousness, about human mind and, therefore, to think about the role of men (its implications in the development of) and society.
