Home Top 100 Nominations Comment form Empiricism and the philosophy of mind Sellars, Wilfrid (1956) Minnesota Studies in the Phil of Science, vol. 1 Nominator's statement The first formulation of a fairly explicit functionalism of the intentional. The original formulation of the notion that our concepts of the mental are (like) theoretical concepts. A strong argument that and explanation why thought and language are interdependent. A resounding rejection of dualism. An influential defense of a physicalistic treatment of sensory consciousness. A terribly influential dismantling of the Cartesian notion that our own mentals states are what we know first and best. comments This has indeed had tremendous influence in philosophy. It introduces the language of thought hypothesis for the first time. By arguing that our concepts about mental states are parts of a theory about unobservables, it fought against the methodology of behaviorism. Also, since our concepts of the mind are simply part of a theory, it opened the possibility of the truth of eliminative materialism, or the view that such theories might be simply false and in need of replacement by better theories of the mental. This long paper, later republished as a book, contains basically all the key ingredients of 20th century philosophy of mind. Some examples: functionalism, the notion of folk psychology, mental states (including conscious states) as posits of a theory; the relation of the intentional to qualia, and very much more.

Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences (1830) Part One IV. Second Attitude of Thought to Objectivity ONE. EMPIRICISM Under these circumstances a double want began to be felt. Partly it was the need of a concrete subject-matter, as a counterpoise to the abstract theories of the understanding , which is unable to advance unaided from its generalities to specialisation and determination . Partly, too, it was the demand for something fixed and secure, so as to exclude the possibility of proving anything and everything in the sphere, and according to the method of the finite formulae of thought. Such was the genesis of Empirical philosophy , which abandons the search for truth in thought itself, and goes to fetch it from Experience , the outward and the inward present. abstract metaphysic of the understanding failed to satisfy. Now by concreteness of contents it is meant that we must know the objects of consciousness as intrinsically determinate In Empiricism lies the great principle that whatever is true must be in the actual reflection When it is carried out to its legitimate consequences, Empiricism being in its facts limited to the finite sphere denies the supersensible in general, or at least any knowledge of it which would define its nature; it leaves thought no powers except abstraction and formal universality and identity. But there is a fundamental delusion in all scientific empiricism. It employs the metaphysical categories of matter, force, those of one, many, generality, infinity, etc.; following the clue given by these categories it proceeds to draw conclusions, and in so doing presupposes and applies the

In the teoretical level, we need to define what experience other in its difference and autonomy. To value the difference of the otherness of the other is fundamental, and to value it as a phenomenological private self, particularly for itself, also. I think we can't do this from an empiricist approach... The life philosophy, which is implicit in GT is clearly existential and dialogic, and this is fundamental. The radical recognizing of the innocence of life and of the body. And the deep respect for the affirmation of life in its spontaneity, includig when it is suffering. This is I think basic in GT. Also I think we need to clarify the good and balanced interaction between phenomenology, existentialism and pragmatism. The pragmatic perspective was and seems to be fundamental: if it can avoid to be transformed in row empiricism... No Replies

56. Empiricism Can we implement the philosophy of empiricism in studying such things as the originof the universe, the evolution of our species, and the mechanism of the mind http://phobos.ramapo.edu/~gbear/empiricism.htm

Empiricism Excerpts from Gordon Bear's textbook Statistics: A Toolkit for Empiricists There is a useful word for work like surveys and experiments that seeks to generate knowledge by collecting and interpreting observations: empirical . The philosophy that motivates such work, empiricism , offers sound advice to anyone curious about anything: “Go see for yourself. Don’t trust what common sense says. Don’t trust what other people say—not even experts. Make your own observations.” Home Page] [Endeavors] For more about empiricism, read on. Those observations should be collected carefully, for people are prone to errors in perception and judgment and memory. If you rely on only your recollections of your mere impressions, your observations are just barely empirical. Care is also essential in the interpretation of observations, for they can be misleading. But careful observations collected systematically and interpreted prudently foster insights into this complex universe of ours—insights that can take us far beyond common sense, insights that have often proven experts wrong. Enunciated here is the philosophy of science, a unique tradition of inquiry that may be humanity’s finest achievement. Science vastly amplifies the power of our minds and our hands. Through science we have become privy to mysterious secrets of nature, created vaccines that prevent hideous diseases, and flown explorers to the distant moon.

The Influence of Darwin on Philosophy and Other Essays Chapter 9: The Postulate of Immediate Empiricism Citation: John Dewey. "The Postulate of Immediate Empiricism", Chapter 9 in The Influence of Darwin on Philosophy and Other Essays. New York: Henry Holt and Company (1910) : 226 - 241. THE POSTULATE OF IMMEDIATE EMPIRICISM THE criticisms made upon that vital but still unformed movement variously termed radical empiricism, pragmatism, humanism, functionalism, according as one or another aspect of it is uppermost, have left me with a conviction that the fundamental difference is not so much in matters overtly discussed as in a presupposition that remains tacit: a presupposition as to what experience is and means. To do my little part in clearing up the confusion, I shall try to make my own presupposition explicit. The object of this paper is, then, to set forth what I understand to be the postulate and the criterion of immediate empiri cism. Immediate empiricism postulates that things- anything, everything, in the ordinary or nontechnical use of the term " thing "- are what they are experienced as. Hence, if one wishes to describe anything truly, his task is to tell what it is experienced as being. If it is a horse that is to be described, or the equus that is to be defined, then must the horse-trader, or the jockey, or the timid family man who wants a " safe driver," or the zoologist or the paleontologist tell us what the horse is which is experienced. If these accounts turn out different in some respects, as well as congruous in others, this is no reason for assuming the content of one to be exclusively " real," and that of others to be " phenomenal"; for each account of what is experienced will manifest that it is the account o f the horse-dealer, or of the zoologist, and hence will give the conditions requisite for understanding the differences as well as the agreements of the various accounts. And the principle varies not a whit if we bring in the psychologist's horse, the logician's horse, or the metaphysician's horse.
