W. V. O. Quine's 'Two Dogmas of Empiricism'

Behold my magic powers to make words appear around my head!

More seriously, let's hope my Quine-interpreting skills are better than my video editing skills.

Still more seriously, this outline of "The Two Dogmas of Empiricism" and my comments should help you understand this very famous article.

You are right about Quine. And you can remake the "dogmas" as Being and the Empiricals. A lot of philosophers these days are really sociolgists, like Frankfurt school. thinkers. There are not completely scientists because they like to hang on to the last concept of Being.

Great. To be fair, though, it is, In Quine, not "analycity" but "analyticity".

Thanks! So is Quine then saying that what we can know about reality is analogous to constructing a jigsaw where each theory is a piece that fits into a unified world view? Then the principle of non contradiction, for instance, is not an analytic a priori truth, but we hold it simply because it is part of the glue that holds the jigsaw together?

this video is reductive. the way in which one understands the video itself is also reductive. from now on we are stamped as " i saw the video of Quine ".
