Olivia Bailey @phronimouse.bsky.social · 19/02/2025If I'm reading this right, he's suggesting that loving someone imposes (or may impose) a limit on our knowledge of them. That sounds so odd to me. Maybe I've been soaking in Murdoch too long, though? 010
Olivia Bailey @phronimouse.bsky.social · 19/02/2025I'm puzzled by a bit of Cavell in The Claim of Reason. I'd like to know what others think. Cavell writes: "the surmise is that the idea of duty toward others as human beings might itself be a restriction on my knowledge of their existence...And loving them might also be a restriction? Yes" (435) 460
