Imagination | Sextus Empiricus | Taureck I 107 Imagination/Paradox/Subjectivism/Sextus Empiricus: If every imagination is true, then the judgment that not all imagination is true is founded on imagination and is itself true. Therefore, it is wrong that all imagination is true. ((s) >Cf. Counterargument against the Philosophy of Interpretation: If everything is an interpretation than this thesis that everything is an interpretation is an interpretation too and so it is not certain.

Interpretation | Wittgenstein | Hintikka I 249 Interpretation/Symbol/WittgensteinVsInterpretation: "Interpretation of symbols" is misleading instead we call it "use of symbols". >Use, >Symbols. II 46 Plan/Wittgenstein: we cannot put the interpretation into the plan; the rules of interpretation of a plan are not part of the plan itself. >Planning. In science, one can compare one's actions with the construction of a house. In philosophy we do not build a foundation, but clean up a room. II 47 Would it be possible to communicate more directly with "mind reading"? What would we understand by this? Language is not an indirect means of communication that is to be contrasted with "direct" mind reading. Mind reading could only take place through the interpretation of symbols and thus on the same level as language. VI 160 Interpretation: of course, every rule can be interpreted in any way. >Rules. VI 161 Interpretation/Wittgenstein/Schulte: interpreting a rule simply means replacing one rule with another. VI 162 Wittgenstein: a rule must be anchored in practice, not in private, otherwise any interpretation would be possible. >Rule following. |

Interpretation Theory | Fodor Vs Interpretation Theory | IV 128 Interpretation: the actual objects of interpretation are propositional attitudes, speech acts, etc., not representations. Representations: their content seems to depend on causal or nomic relations of objects in the world and neurological states,... IV 129 ...to which the interpreter usually has no access. Anyway, they are by definition inaccessible for radical interpretation. Fodor/LeporeVsVs: the representation theorists should bite this bullett. It is plausible that there are no interesting relations between the epistemic situation of the interpreter and the facts on which the content metaphysically depends. This is, of course, not to deny the the supervenience of the intentional on the physical. Only the interpreter does not have access (Fodor/LeporeVsInterpretation Theory). God knows what representations mean. And he is physicalist without doubt! Radical Interpretation/RI/Lewis: even the radical interpreter does not have access to all the physical facts. They are limited to the "behavioral" behaviorist facts. Interpretation/representation/Fodor/Lepore: the notion that only representations have original intentional content does not deny that there is indeed interpretation. The idea is rather that the semantic properties of the propositional attitudes and speech acts depend on hidden things which only God knows. Therefore, the inferences on which the interpretation depends are contingent! (?). Fodor/LeporeVsInterpretation Theory: it is not obvious that we have original intentionality (which the interpreter needs) in the first instance (i.e. representation, uninterpretable). |
