Ep. 95: How Do We Understand Things? (Part I)

from For the Love of Sophia! · host For the Love of Sophia!

In this episode, Giuseppe and Anthony begin to discuss a number of general questions pertaining to this thing we call "understanding": What exactly does it mean to understand something? What does it have to do with context and connections between things? What does is mean when someone says that they _don't_ understand something? How does it relate to hermeneutic vantage points and horizons? How does technology affect our capacity to understand anything? How does language and literacy factor into all of this? What does it mean to focus too much on the practical rather than the theoretical? Or vice-versa? For questions or suggestions for future episodes: [email protected].
