4| Testimony, Self-knowledge and the aims of Philosophy- with Guy Longworth
Update: 2020-07-05
Description
This episode is an interview with Warwick Philosophy's Guy Longworth. We discuss how his interest in philosophy began and was maintained, his ideas around testimony and self knowledge, and how ambitious philosophers should be in the claims that they make.
Listen to this episode for an exploration of questions such as:
What is philosophy for?
What is at stake in research about testimony?
Is there a tension between an interest in Austin, a philosopher who in many respects had quite a modest view of the appropriate aims of good philosophy, with an interest in philosophers in the rationalist tradition, who often had much more grand ambitions?
This interview was conducted and edited by Toby Tremlett.
