Here is a philosophical puzzle with respect to actions:
(1) If A is an action, then there is an event, E, such that A is identical to E.
(2) S is the agent of action A only if S causes E (A = E).
(3) An event can only be caused by another event.
(4) Persons are not events.
Therefore:
(5) A person can never be the agent of an action.
Also:
(6) S is the agent of an action only if S is a person.
Therefore:
(7) Actions do not have agents.
But:
(8) Actions do have agents.
[Also, one could write down “living being” instead of “person” in (4) and (6) and still infer (7)]

Am ținut în acest semestru un curs opțional, dedicat cărții doamnei Anscombe, Intention. Pagina cursului conține, pentru fiecare întâlnire, traducerea paragrafelor discutate (am reușit să parcurg toată cartea) și înregistrările audio ale discuțiilor.

Am scris asta inițial pe Facebook, dar m-am gândit să o păstrez și aici.
Mi-am închipuit următorul schimb de replici:
A: Listening to you play the piano is a torture.
B: So this is your confession!
(Wittgenstein, PU, §111: “Fragen wir uns: Warum empfinden wir einen grammatischen Witz als tief. (Und das ist ja die philosophische Tiefe.)”)

This is mainly an (yet unsuccessful) attempt to develop what I understood as a Wittgensteinean suggestion here for how we could justify claims of the form ‘I know that p’, where p describes what is happening in the speaker’s environment, by performing certain empirical actions. Since these are my personal notes, some other thoughts are intermixed. If you have any feedback, please leave a comment bellow.
