This two-day masterclass examines how these seemingly opposed traditions—formalism and Romanticism—jointly illuminate Wittgenstein’s view that philosophical problems arise from what he famously called the “mythology in our language.“ www.ozsw.nl/activity/wit...

lnkd.in/enPjYjV2 6 years ago, I wondered what philosophers mean when they say "Commitment to a proposition." It took me 6 years to publish the answer. The answer is...it depends! Briefly, don't use that phrase. It means nothing.

www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... What's conceptual engineering, and what is pragmatist about it? I "often" get asked this question. Following Rorty, it is its anti-authoritarian conceptual ethics! This is the product of a class on pragmatism @vuamsterdam.bsky.social. Thanks to the students!
