'American Pragmatism as the Second Enlightenment' Robert Brandom's 2024 Kiev Lecture

[kmerczerwony]

Thank you for the lecture. Very interesting.

[ivanivashchenko]

Thank you, Bob! What a sign of solidarity. That's what Rorty would have done.

[l.markharris]

Brandon like Rorty are very much synthesizer towards a pragmatism perspective. A sober perspective. It captures a salient trend in thought. Where it's going philosophically. If you get it, a manageable and exciting world view.

[DanielDunne]

Thanks for a bit of WB Yeats I was unfamiliar with. At around 1:20.

[EzraSisk]

Knowing is like experience, they both take work apparently.

[NathanWHill]

49:55 I really wish he'd stop saying this thing about Marx and precious metals, because it just makes clear he hasn't actually read the discussion of fetishism in Capital.

[edwardj]

Why do I get these videos? Is there anybody here who can understand this jargon, or even has an idea of what philosophical problems he's talking about? "Transcendental unity of aperception". And most of all, WHY DOES IT SOUND LIKE HE DISPARAGES ANIMALS SO MUCH? They may be simpler and can't talk but to deny them volitional qualities and self consciousness analogous to our own is just idiotic BARBARISM!!!
