When you log in, a charcoal-black button called “post new entry” emerges just above and to the left of this post. Post reading responses below regarding the William James, John Dewey, and Fallman readings. You might consider commenting on some issues that arise for you in considering the nature of empirical thought. What is the role of experience, as opposed to “ideas,” in your own epistemology? What are our cultural values around science technologically-aided or empirical research, and how do they hinge on assumptions about experience and reason?
If you have thoughts regarding Haraway, Kurianawan, etc. that you think pertain to some of these questions, feel free to post them here as well as in the Haraway, Kurianawan reading response thread.
