#conceptual analysis

[oediex]

So, I’m a model at the local art academy and last weekend I was modelling for the painting class

and there’s this guy in the painting class that I feel really attracted to. I don’t know why. He’s sexy. He’s seen me naked, so ?????

But on the way home, I kind of thought, “I would read fanfiction about that” - until I realized that wouldn’t be fanfiction. And then I figured a lot of fiction is, in a way, fanfiction about life. And now I feel like there’s this whole conceptual analysis to be made about fiction and fanfiction and life?

Ethics #1

Ethics is perhaps one of the most peculiar concepts ever produced by human civilisation, not because it lacks influence, since entire legal systems, religions, educational structures, empires, revolutions, and interpersonal relationships have been erected upon its foundations, but because, beneath the appearance of solidity that usually surrounds it, there exists a profound and irreducible…

In view of the prevalence of the slogan ‘ordinary language’, and of such names as ‘linguistic’ or ‘analytic’ philosophy or ‘the analysis of language’, one thing needs specially emphasizing to counter misunderstandings. When we examine what we should say when, what words we should use in what situations, we are looking again not merely at words (or ‘meanings’, whatever they may be) but also at the realities we use the words to talk about: we are using a sharpened awareness of words to sharpen our perception of, though not as the final arbiter of, the phenomena. For this reason I think it might be better to use, for this way of doing philosophy, some less misleading name than those given above.

J Austin 1979, p. 182

I do not think that we should be interested in definitions. I leave aside the very general philosophical point that if we mean, seriously, definitions, there are no very interesting definitions of anything.
