"Cosa si prova a essere un pipistrello?", Thomas Nagel ci spiega la forza della mente sul corpo e nella filosofia | Maglifestyle
Facebook Twitter “La coscienza è ciò che rende il problema mentecorpo davvero intrattabile.” Inizia così il classico saggio di Thomas Nagel del 1974 Cosa si prova a essere un pipistrello? Il testo di Nagel ha inaugurato l’interesse ormai diffuso nei confronti della coscienza come problema centrale per la filosofia, la psicologia e le neuroscienze; ha anche […]
DrBob, 🧠 MechanicWhat Is It Like to Be a #Smartphone?
As the philosopher #ThomasNagel observed in “What Is It Like to Be a Bat?” in 1974, we humans are unable to inhabit the consciousness of any other animal
We can’t know the “subjective character” of other animals’ experience any more than they can understand ours
We are…able to see that, excepting perhaps the simplest of life forms, an animal has a #Consciousness — or at least a beingness. The animal, we understand, is a living thing with a mind, a sensorium, a nature. We know it feels like something to be that animal, even though we can’t know what that something is.

“The problem is that although there are justifications and explanations for most of the things, big and small, that we do within life, none of these explanations explain the point of your life as a whole — the whole of which all these activities, successes and failures, strivings and disappointments are parts.” ~ Thomas Nagel, What Does It All Mean? #quote #life #philosophy #thomasnagel #existence #living

Tom ZijlstraVandaag 10 jaar geleden https://sailing-dulce.nl/home/article-4116 #vilarealdesanantonio #leesmolin Woensdag 17-09-2014 De Amerikaanse filosoof #ThomasNagel heeft veel moeite met de (neo)-darwinistische theorie. Waarom? Omdat het toeval er (voor hem) een veel te grote rol in speelt. In zijn ogen is het vrijwel onmogelijk dat leven, intelligentie en bewustzijn zijn ontstaan als een soort neveneffect van een ongericht, doelloos proces van evolutie - en dat is nou juist al vele jaren de concensus in het overgrote..
Vandaag 10 jaar geleden https://sailing-dulce.nl/home/article-4115 #vilarealdesanantonio #ThomasNagel Dinsdag 16-09-2014 Vanmorgen regent het maar de kracht van de zuidenwind valt mee. We maken er een trage ochtend van. Muziek en lezen. Later is het even droog en doen we boodschappen in de super bij het Praça Marquês de Pombal, het plein voor het stadhuis. Tijdens de koffie op een van de terrassen vallen pittige buien. We stellen ons als pubers aan en nemen foto's van elkaar. Het is gewoon een kwestie van een..
Opowiadanie światówODUCZANIE SIĘ #3 TUNELOWYCH OPOWIEŚCI
CZ 1 z 2
Zapraszam na kolejną część “Oduczania się”. Tym razem w tym procesie będzie pomagał nam Hayao Miyazaki i jego wspaniała manga “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind” (Nausicaä z Doliny Wiatru), a także esej "Jak to jest być nietoperzem?" Thomasa Nagela.
Przy okazji chciałbym Wam polecić anime Miyazakiego “Chłopiec i czapla”, które wchodzi w styczniu do polskich kin dzięki Młodym Horyzontom. Jest zdecydowanie w mojej topce najlepszych doświadczeń kinowych w 2023 roku!

I really like this aspect of Frank Herbert's world building, the richness of religious and cultural artifacts scattered throughout the text. This quote from the Orange Catholic Bible reminds me of Thomas Nagel's, "What is it like to be a bat?"

Christina DongowskiThis #review by #ThomasNagel about two books about Elizabeth #Anscombe, Philippa #Foot, Mary #Midgley & Iris #Murdoch really helped me to understand their impact & their philosophical achievements, but it’s also rather sweet , because at the end he discloses that he knew tree of them personally & is very proud of this.
