    Love Gadamer so much. One of my favorite philosophers thanks in large part to this channel.

      I don't think anything Gadamer said here was "against science".

      @@Philosophy_Overdose his comments on clearing up the ‘stuttering’ approach of natural science is surely advocating a return to philosophical understandings of nature and science, against contemporary ‘scientism,’ which is what i meant by ‘gadamer against science’ in the op and why i put science in scare quotes.

    Is there a reading list to unpack some of the things he said? I feel like he just crammed so much into five minutes, I need help unpacking all of that.

    This "natura naturans," this "mysterious vitality"...seems to point up something "mystical." I mean, if the whole of nature is constituted by "selfhood," then indeed we are back to the One, to Parmenides, to Plato and Neoplatonism. We are in Vedanta, in the Absolute Sphere, of which the Relative Sphere is the image. Yet this apparent division is itself derivative; it derives from the ONE. Is this not what Schelling was getting at? What Fichte pioneered, following Kant? This "ego consciousness" or infinitely refined "Subject" is like "God," in the sense that it is the sine qua non. The atoms "contain" it; our bodies "contain" it. Indeed, we ourselves are "starstuff." We are eternal. Logically , the whole universe is essentially FREEDOM. Or this mysterious "intelligible order." Maharishi termed it, THE DIVINE CREATIVE INTELLIGENCE. Shakespeare noticed it as well, but also the "Comedy of Errors."

    He doesn't explain why they must be regarded as attributable to us.

      @@brnoza298 thank you for the suggestion. Which works by Strawson would you recommend?
      Kant does explain it in his metaphysics and moral philosophy. Basically, they must be attributable to us because of the transcendental ego and the unity of our apperceptions and self-consciousness. You can disagree with this, but Gadamer is talking about German Idealism here, so he doesn’t explain it in the video since it’s a basic starting point of the movement.

      @@michaelwu7678 The paper "The impossibility of moral responsibility" is a good starting point here. Also, I recommend you to see Arnold Zuboff's lecture on the sleeping beauty problem and personal identity (here on UA-cam). Or you can read his papers instead.
