CJ Stevens - Metaphysiology

First idea for the week, not great, but not bad for a Monday morning either:

A summary of Gilbert #Ryle's #philosophy in the style of #Abba: "Knowing how, knowing that... a-ha!"

@WorldImagining @philosophy If you find yourself teaching Ryle, your students absolutely have to see Jerry Cohen's impression of him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80AovwgVY8Q

@jojo Haha, that's excellent, thanks for the share. I don't know Jerry Cohen, but when he speaks at himself at the beginning he sounds like an Irishman who lived many years in the USA...?

@WorldImagining Sort of the other way around I think: he was a Canadian who lived in England most of his life. G.A. (Jerry) Cohen studied under Ryle and is quite well known in analytical political philosophy. His most famous work was "If You're an Egalitarian, How Come You're So Rich?"

@jojo Ah okay, good to know. There is a definite Irish twang to his accent, but then you find all sorts of linguistic surprises up them Canadian parts, so who knows! :)
