“Part of my methodological approach is made explicit when I discuss ways in which literature can have philosophical significance. Literature doesn't typically argue - and when it does, it's deadly dull. But literature can supply the frame within which we come to observe and reason, or it can change our frame in highly significant ways. That's one of the achievements I'd claim for Mann, and for Death in Venice.” WayDoeMadeReasonLiteratureAchievementApproachClaimsPhilosophicalArguingSignificantDullSignificanceVeniceExplicitDeath In Venice Author:Philip Kitcher
“I just realized, sometime early on in college, that I wanted to be a philosopher.

“Epistemology now flourishes with various complementary approaches. This includes formal epistemology, experimental philosophy, cognitive science and psychology, including relevant brain science, and other philosophical subfields, such as metaphysics, action theory, language, and mind. It is not as though all questions of armchair, traditional epistemology are already settled conclusively, with unanimity or even consensus. We still need to reason our way together to a better view of those issues.” WayNeedsMindStillsReasonPhilosophyActionTogetherLanguageViewsBrainIssuesPsychologyTheoryApproachPhilosophicalIncludingVariousTraditionalRelevantFormalMetaphysicsConsensusCognitiveEpistemologyCognitive ScienceComplementaryArmchairsUnanimityBrain Science Author:Ernest Sosa

“The philosophical underpinnings of my approach to acting are that there are universal human qualities, and that every character is actually available within each one of us, that if we tap down into that universal humanness, we can find whatever character it is that we need to play already there within ourselves, and it's just a matter of peeling apart the onion that is you and finding that character within you, because of this universal human quality.” IfsNeedsHumansMatterPlayCharacterActingQualityFindingsApproachUniversalPhilosophicalAvailableWithin YouOnionsHumannessHuman QualitiesPeeling Author:Misha Collins
