G. E. M. Anscombe (b.1919)

from Sleep With Philosophy · host Whisper.fm

As we trace the quiet contours of G.E.M. Anscombes philosophical journey, we find ourselves immersed in a world shaped by profound inquiries into intention, ethics, and language. Her keen exploration of moral psychology in Intention redefines our understanding of actions and outcomes, weaving a delicate mixture of thought that challenges and comforts. In her critical revival of virtue ethics through Modern Moral Philosophy, Anscombe gently invites us to reconsider the very foundations of our moral judgments. Tonight, let us drift into the depths of her insightful critiques and translations, where each thought is a soft step towards a richer understanding of human nature.This episode is hosted by William Davis.
