Deviant Hinge Epistemology and Epistemic Angst

Monday, April 22nd, 2019

La sfârșitul săptămânii trecute am participat la Topics in Analytic Philosophy 3 cu o conferință cu acest titlu. Slide-urile se găsesc aici.

Un draft al textului pe baza căruia mi-am susținut prezentarea se găsește aici:

Cercetari filosofice 111

Friday, February 23rd, 2018

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.)”)

De la Libraria Humanitas de la Cișmigiu. Făceam ordine prin niște cd-uri vechi și am descoperit-o astăzi. 🙂

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.

O lectura

Monday, November 18th, 2013

Dupa vreo doi ani si jumatate, timp in care aproape am uitat de site-ul respectiv, am redescoperit din intamplare asta. Nu fac altceva decat sa citesc traducerea romaneasca a Conferintei despre etica a lui Wittgenstein, folosind si slide-uri. Ceea ce ma interesa era sa vad cum ar putea functiona un sistem de a realiza prezentari online.

Martea viitoare,…
