"Anscombe versus Austin"

Date: Thursday, September 12, 2024

Time: 4:00 pm

Watson Hall, Room 517

My topic is the relation between Elizabeth Anscombe카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 form of linguistic philosophy and the ordinary language philosophy of J. L. Austin. In Metaphysical Animals, Clare Mac Cumhaill and Rachael Wiseman observe that Anscombe and Austin hated each other and portray Anscombe카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 loathing as expressing a deep aversion to Austin카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 conception of philosophy. In response, some commentators have criticised this interpretation, arguing that Anscombe카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 contempt for Austin was grounded in merely personal reasons, which prevented her from appreciating that Austin was involved in a similar reformatory project to Wittgenstein and Anscombe herself. In my paper, I evaluate this dispute, exploring the similarities and differences between Anscombe카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 and Austin카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 ideas of philosophy카지노 게임 컬렉션攆ocusing on their notorious symposium on pretending and their respective writings on perception and its objects. I will argue that attention to the metaphysical dimensions of Anscombe카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 카지노 게임 컬렉션済rammatical카지노 게임 컬렉션� inquiries can reveal the ways in which Austin카지노 게임 컬렉션檚 philosophy is, by comparison, superficial.
