Rorty VI 167
Representation/Dennett: how consensus can be explained by success: e.g. a map representing shoals, is simply better than one that does not. Cf. >Map example.
RortyVsDennett: e.g. electron: we are not able to go back and forth between what we say about electrons and the electrons themselves. And not between our attributions of beliefs and the beliefs themselves! E.g. that would be like trying to verify what is in the paper by looking up what is in another copy of the same newspaper, as Wittgenstein says. >Presentation, >Observation, >Picture (mapping), >Theoretical terms, >Theoretical entities.
