Abstract

The recent publication of the books La razionalità, by Paolo Labinaz, and I modi della razionalità, edited by Massimo Dell’Utri and Antonio Rainone, offers the opportunity to provide an overview of some important discussions dealing with the notion of rationality. In particular, I highlight how the modern and Cartesian ideal of rationality is undergoing a transformation that is enhanced and accelerated by certain results coming from empirical studies in the field of cognitive science. These transformations are visible in many ambits concerning rationality: this discussion privileges the traditional ones, i.e., logical, theoretical, and practical rationality.
