The Pragmatic Perspective: Part II

from Ethics-Talk: The Greatest Good of Man is Daily to Converse About Virtue · host Ethics Talk

In this show, philosophy professors Hope May & Michael Russo continue to discuss William James' theory of truth. We began to discuss this topic in our episode from April 6, 2010 (check our archives), and we continue that discussion here. According to James, truth is dynamic and *happens* to belief. This "DYNAMISM" is complex and is key, as we will discuss tonight. Our objectives: to help you understand the deep divide between the correspondence & pragmatic theories of truth. To do so, we take on the compexities of "dynamism" inherent in James' view of Truth, Reality and Self.
