PlasticPills - Philosophy & Critical Theory Podcast

CHAPTER

The Cultural Moment of Aristotle

Derrida and Foucault's texts are more clear because they're sharing a cultural moment. When Kant is just making up the names for different parts of the mind, yeah, he's making it up. We should stop reading unclear authors. Aristotle wasn't clear. He wasn't clear because he wasn't writing in English. So that's his problem. I didn't do this on purpose. All the clear stuff is coming. What? All right. Later guys. Good times, everyone. It's we'll talk at you next week. Get on it so we can keep making stuff through the summer when we don't have any income.
