Donald Davidson and Michael Dummett in Conversation
Переглядів 16 тис.5 років тому
Another entry from the Donald Davidson in Conversation series, this time speaking with. Michael Dummett. The two had been rivals for years, as the two disagreed on a number of substantial points in the philosophy of language. The discussion ends on a cliffhanger while Dummett straps Davidson onto a metal frame with a slow moving laser working its way up to his torso. Thank you to Philosophy Int...

Another entry from the Donald Davidson in Conversation series, this time speaking with another of his critics, Barry Stroud, on the topic of skepticism and whether Davidson's proposed resolution of skepticism is a successful elimination of the problem. Thank you to Philosophy International and Richard Fara, who are responsible for this clip. None of this material belongs to me.

This conversation has been uploaded by a few other people but with out of sync audio. Enjoy this great conversation between two very interesting (and adorable) philosophers! Thank you to Philosophy International and Richard Fara, who are responsible for this clip. None of this material belongs to me.
Dummett must have had a brandy before the conversation.
such a good video.

How many doctorate degrees in philosophy are you supposed to have to understand all the fancy terminology used in this conversation? What happened to lucidity? Also: They reject truth, but are they not uttering every single sentence meaning it and wanting it to be true?!
They are very clear. I only have BA in philosophy, with an MA in lit.
This discussion very much feels like a meet-up between a fantasy-book author and an avid fan, where the fan has read and discussed the literature so much that they start to try to correct the author on their world-building 😂 I like McDowell's work a lot and his passion for Davidson's work really showed here.
Is anyone here from the Rorty-Davidson conversation on Philosophical Overdose?
Teo neden bakır'ı tek başına bıraktı? Az önce müttefiğiz dedi şimdi de ölün daha değerlş diyor. Hiçbir sey anlamadım.
Jesus Christ McDowell is insufferably indulgent and unclear.
Just imagine having written "On Two Dogmas of Empiricism" or "Truth and Meaning" yourself. One simply cannot doubt the greatness of these men!
Good
I really wish McDowell would have let Davidson speak more in this video as opposed to interrupting him every time he speaks. This video is just McDowell stumbling and muttering ...
Pretty great discussion. Interestingly this also kinda practically proves the Davidson's thesis as this was uninterpretable 2 yrs ago lol
Good
❤❤

I find McDowell impossibly unclear and meandering.
they're all so doddery and old 😂 i bet chrysippus ad carneades looked just the same, but for the silly 20th century uniform
miss you professor stroud ♥️
Great to sit in on this conversation between these two leading philosophers; pity they were both clearly past their best. But thanks for posting! I was privileged to attend one of Davidson's lectures about ten or fifteen years before this video was shot, and when his mind was much sharper, too.
@@dostoyevsky1222 I agree, but as I said Davidson certainly isn't as sharp in this video as he had been in the early 1980s when I attended his lectures. And the book you mention is excellent, even if I disagree with his brave attempt to repair traditional theories of predication.
Thank you.
この2人、お互いに論敵だったけど、一緒にサーフィン行ったりしていたらしい。良いね。
I had no idea that Dr.Strangelove was such a great philosopher.
29:14 this historian who said the thing about us revising the truth, can't he just be a Hegelian. He clearly thinks his new truth is better or he wouldn't be writing a book.
He could be lots of things, Davidson would still take issue with it.
41:06 need Hegel here

It's very important to state the date and time of these conversations, please. And tahank you very much for the content
Could anyone explain Quine's version of Pre-Ordained harmony to me, please?!
One rightly says, ''better late than never''!
...nebulous fog of ideas dire
what's the third dude doing? he just wanted to b in the frame?
at times, he seems to be taking notes. that at least. maybe he wanted to be in the frame taking notes.
I’m ”shot through with normativity” 😀
and that was his friend and mentor... I don't want to see him asking questions to his enemies, lol
This is pure gold!
who is the director of this program?
Richard Dawkinds? Just kidding. I don't know either.
Sounds like a word salad. The question is whether sensory information managed through induction works or predicts.
Very glad these are now available free online, it's a shame to hide them away
anyone have this conversation in papper? plz ♥
Epochal. As cantankerous a philosopher as Rorty is, I think it's cute how much he admires Davidson (whatever quibbles he might have with him).
35:27 is everything I needed hahahaha

1:02:14 Such a GREAT question for such a POOR answer: "most of our direct perceptual judgements are true, not because they're based on something else... but because of... umh... how they come to have the contents they do." - Really? Talk about covering the sun with your finger! "Not some magic thing in experience..." Oh, nonono, no: Rather some magic thing in... "I DON'T KNOW WHAT AND CAN'T SAY WHY OUR PERCEPTUAL JUDGEMENTS TEND O V E R W H E L M I N G L Y TO BE TRUE" - 'All I know is that it is not because of Reality. Oh no, that's magic.' - Well, at least MAGIC seems to make SENSE. Let's believe in magical Reality! - And forget about charlatans.
Bryan Magee was the question-asker
Does Quine or Davidson have a paper where they reconcile their individuation principle (which, historically, comes from Schopenhauer through Einstein) with quantum mechanics?
In the disagreement that dominates the 2nd half does McDowell not get very close to affirming the given?
McDowell's position is anything but clear, but he does seem adamant on maintaining that some (unclear) version of consciousness can be affirmed while not giving into the myth of the given. No idea what his position actually is though.
@@gerhitchman Thanks. From my more recent studies it does seem that McDowell affirms that pre-judgement perception has a "minimal" subjective conceptual contribution. So he accepts a significant given component, but it doesn’t have it’s own independent intelligibility.
@@fr.hughmackenzie5900that's a similar account advocated by phenomenologists like Zahavi.
Alternative title: McDowell lectures do Davidson on how to be Davidson.
Thank you so much for posting these! Such valuable conversations. Their preservation and dissemination is a real service to philosophy. I hope someone will find the rest, including the conversations with Nancy Cartwright and Jennifer Hornsby.
The Bart Simpson voice actress? Lol
@@Kittylover074 no. There are two different Nancy Cartwrights.
A wonderful conversation. Priceless actually. Thank you for sharing this. As others have asked: do we know what year this took place?
The VHS was released in 1997 so probably around that period.
What a great mind, Quine.
quines contribution to the application of set theory created a new method of investigation within the domain of philosophy and logic.
I wonder what Quine would have thought of Jon Barwise's work!
I know what's true - that Davidson's opening comments are way, way too long
thank you sir, i was dying for this series....now that I'm in college, I'm still interested on these topics.
