Moving on

Tuesday, May 11th, 2021

2020 was a weird year, but I am back now. At the end of last year I gave an online talk at our Department’s Theoretical Seminar. It’s here.

Empirical actions (and some other things)

Thursday, March 10th, 2016

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.

Reason, Actions, Nature

Friday, January 8th, 2016

These are some notes which I wrote down in the last few months. I was thinking of writing a book, so I wrote in order to make the topic of my book a bit more clear. This is the only use of this text – to make it clear for myself what I am supposed to write about in my book. The only result of writing everything found here, which I would acknowledge, is that the title of my book should be ‘Reason, Language and Actions’. Nothing else should be taken seriously, nothing is worth mentioning etc. I did not proofread the text for grammar mistakes. If you want to take a look at it, you’re on your own.

Mixed thoughts on reference

Monday, June 22nd, 2015

Just a mix of things I wrote down in the last few months while preparing my talk for BCAP2015. Nothing in here should be taken as my official claim.

A few afterthoughts on the way in which we justify our knowledge claims (in Romanian) are here.
