[MD] What does Pirsig mean by metaphysics?

[david buchanan]

Marsha asked:
Could you give me a little information on the history of perspectivism?

dmb says:
No, I'd like to know that too. The Stanford encyclopedia probably has an article. That'll go on my to-do list. If Pirsig's account of the sophists counts as a history of perspectivism - and I think maybe it can - I've still only read one. I only know that it is a word people use to describe Nietzsche and the classical pragmatists. It very likely has ancient antecedents but if Hickman is right it can also be thought of as post-postmodern. 

Thanks for the warm welcome.
