Subject: [lit-ideas] Barefoot in Athens
Grice considers that with respect to what he calls the Lat. Unity of
Philosophy vs. Long. Unity of Philosophy (he was a sailor at heart).
The Longitudinal Unity means that what PLATO said (never mind Foucault) is
still relevant today ('provided we can introject into his shoes' -- or
sandals, strictly).
*But Foucault himself would have vehemently rejected the assumption of
"Longitudinal Unity." Any kind of unity is a big no-no, and to suggest that we
could 'introject into his shoes' and read him as if he were physically present
is outright heresy.
O.K.
