    I've never delved into Brandom's philosophy before, but this lecture provides a great introduction

    Kant's emphasis on judgment reflects the acts of the intellect model in the scholastic tradition. He was actually just carrying forward the conventional approach to "logic" of his time.

    Brandom, Rescher and others are way underrated, whilst non-philosophers that have an opinion on everything like Chomsky are extremely overrated

    We need more pragmatism...people moving back to collectivism and intolerance... the idea of "in group vs out group," is Terrifying.
    We need to take the best parts of both philosophy and make something that can serve humans now and in the future without so.muvh violence

    Does anyone have a title to suggest, so that I could look into Peirce's view of the laws of nature being habits of the universe, as in Brandom's discussion of physics?

      Several resources. In my view a good entry point is Robert Corrington's "An Introduction to C.S. Pierce: Philosopher, Semiotician, and Ecstatic Naturalist." It does take careful reading -- only a small fragment of books in print are worth reading more than once, but I'd say this is one. Excellent scholarship. I agreed least with Corrington's last chapter BUT he makes a very credible argument toward that end -- and whatever your own conclusions there, the ingredients shown along the way are well worth assimilating. Includes addressing the question you pose.
      Corrington wrote his dissertation on Royce, a challenging man poorly understood today himself but with whom Peirce was personally delighted to engage. Pierce influenced significantly the later writings of Royce -- Royce a gentleman who personally rescued Pierces papers way down south at the time Peirce died, preserved (largely not entirely) in the Harvard library where Royce and James taught. Pierce, James and Royce all died within a short time of one another. When Peirce showed up in Boston too ill to take care of himself, James rushed to him declaring as he rushed to see Peirce "but I owe him everything." James helped him out financially as he could. James and Royce were regarded as two of the leading intellectuals in the USA academy, personal friends although typically identified themselves with very different schools of thought. Partly true, partly not. Depends on your level of analysis for which you're looking for similarities and differences. In any rate, distinctive thinkers who all thought quite differently -- and who learned more than most, then or today, from one another during their lives...

    I love this lecture but he could say most of this in much simpler terms. At least I think he could; him being a Hegelian, "simple terms" is a heresy.

      I surely don't agree with you,
      Can you explain at least three moments where he could have done it without prolonging the time of the lecture?
      This motto, "could've said it better", usually applied to Brandom, and actually do any of the most complex, because systematic, american philosophers is just a clear proof that people seem to confuse clarity with easy philosophy. Brandom texts are actually very clear, that is, if you can at least understand how his concepts are applied in relational normative commitments and entitlements with the philosophical tradition (something most students lack knowledge of).

      @@Philover I literally can't restate this lecture in simpler terms without loosing the argumentative value of each statement. It probably could be done here and there, refining and polishing the discourse. But this is also true of any discourse of this length what so ever. However, the global aspect of the Brandom's lecture, for me, can't be put in simpler terms.

    • @thomaswilliams1129
      @thomaswilliams1129 4 роки тому

      @@Philover I think the problem is, not relying on shorthands for ideas and concepts in philosophy requires us to motivate them from the ground up. It's not that this can't be done but the magnitude of a work increases for every term you pay special attention to. That being said, I find Brandom clear but not always enjoyable to read. I think despite sometimes writing in long-sentences and using many shorthands, he lingers on ideas for long enough for you to know what he has said by the end of his paragraph. He is much easier to read than to listen to in this sense.
