it.<br /><br />It seems to me that a bachelor is a male who is unmarried but is in the category of people who are (in the society) considered marriagable. Thus, children are not marriagable; priests are not marriagable; thus they aren't bachelors even though they are unmarried males.<br /><br />The gay male question is complicated because of the historically changing nature of society. Fifty years ago, "gay male" was not a generally recognized category, and thus they were considered bachelors -- even if, with a wink, they were called "confirmed bachelors", which meant that while eligable they weren't going to be married and everyone knew it. Nowadays, however, we recongize that gay men are a category, and thus don't see them as eligible to marry women, and wouldn't consider them bachelors as such (if they were in long-term same-sex relationships many people, including me, would see them as "married", whether or not they lived in Massachusetts).<br /><br />Not really trying for a mathematical-level precision here. But it seems like this is the thumbnail explanation for various objections. So please tell me:<br />- why this is wrong?<br />- what objections are not covered by this?<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Stephen FrugAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1107752077850236672005-02-06T22:54:00.000-06:002005-02-06T22:54:00.000-06:00Clark, sorry about that. I guess the best answer i...Clark, sorry about that. I guess the best answer is that semiotics hasn't had much of an influence on cognitive science, outside of linguistics, and even there, the influence has primarily been in the way linguists define "signs" (in fact, they're usually just called Saussurian signs, these days). This is probably because cognitive science arose out of a computational tradition, starting with people like Chomsky, whose focus on semantics is more on the processing side than on the reference side, and therefore doesn't really deal with sign-signified relationships. In fact, one could criticize a great deal of cognitive science (including all of the major theories of concepts) for having almost no way of dealing with semantics or reference (I know that Laurene and Margolis offer this as a specific criticism of prototype theories).<br /><br />I think the reason differences become important for people like Derrida and Deleuze is just that they want to avoid reifying meaning in the way that traditional Aristotelian essences or definitions do. This isn't really a concern for cognitive scientists, especially since most of them are objectivists about meaning anyway.<br /> <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fmixingmemory.blogspot.com" TITLE="mixingmemory at gmail dot com">Chris</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1107751628982293222005-02-06T22:47:00.000-06:002005-02-06T22:47:00.000-06:00Well that was very interesting Chris. However I w...Well that was very interesting Chris. However I was more thinking of the relationship between semiotics and cognitive science. Saussure's semiotics in Europe seemed to focus on making differences and there was, to a certain extent, a similar view in Peirce. That then becomes very important to Derrida, even if Derrida arrives at it via Husserl originally. I've only made it halfway through Deleuze's <I>Difference and Repitition</I>. It's hard going and I ought give it an other try.<br /><br />Anyway, my question was less about Analytic/Continental separations than why some cognitivists seem interested in Continental thought. I'll definitely check out Dreyfus though who I always enjoy reading. Thanks for the reference. <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?www.libertypages.com%2Fclark" TITLE="Clark at lextek dot com">Clark</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1107747777599054572005-02-06T21:42:00.000-06:002005-02-06T21:42:00.000-06:00Clark, I do know that Wittgenstein's critique of d...Clark, I do know that Wittgenstein's critique of definitions played a role in many philosophers, on both sides of the Atlantic, turning away from definitions in general. However, I think the continental view of Aristotelian theories of concepts is formed more by a turning away from the static essentialism that you find in metaphysics from Aristotle on. When continental philosophers like Husserl, Heidegger, or Sartre talk about essences, they are referring more to individuals than to kinds, and their essences are more dynamic (subject to the processes of becoming, and to the position of perceiving subjects). The focus on difference in Heidegger, and even more in later thinkers like Deleuze and Derrida (and, though it's not really called difference, in Merleau-Ponty), seems to me like an even more radical rejection of Aristotelian essentialism, and thus Aristotilian views of definition. They seem to want to take the essence out of the thing as it is in itself and place it firmly in the dynamic structure of the lived world and language. For them, essences (if you can call them that still) are largely relational, and since the relations between things are ever-changing, so too are essences.<br /><br />There is a line of thought in cognitive science that is more in line with the Continental view of Aristotelian essences than the anti-definitional accounts from people like Quine, Kripke, and Putnam in the analytic tradition. Under this view (the origin of which is usually attributed to J.J. Gibson), the structure of our concept representations is determined by our actions in the world. Objects "afford" different actions in different contexts, and this means that our concept representations will be entirely relational and context-dependent. In fact, some (including Hubert Dreyfus, on the philosophy side) believe that the context-dependence and relational nature of concepts means that they are non-representational, a view that is in line with phenomenology (at least from Sartre on) and some postmodern philosophies, especially (I would imagine) Deleuze's. You might check out Dreyfus' "<A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fist-socrates.berkeley.edu%2F%7Ehdreyfus%2Fpdf%2FMerleauPontySkillCogSci.pdf">A Phenomenology of Skill Acquisition as the Basis for a Merleau-Pontian Non-representationalist Cognitive Science</A>" and <A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hfac.uh.edu%2Fcogsci%2Fdreyfus.html">Intelligence Without Representation</A>."<br /><br />Anyway, the short answer to your question is no, I don't think the same concerns about definitions that analytic philosophers detailed resulted in the anti-definition views of the continental philosophers. I think their beefs with Aristotilian views of definitions were largely metaphysical, or anti-metaphysical in nature. <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fmixingmemory.blogspot.com" TITLE="mixingmemory at gmail dot com">Chris</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1107746345929484622005-02-06T21:19:00.000-06:002005-02-06T21:19:00.000-06:00Chris, is this problem with Aristotelean like cate...Chris, is this problem with Aristotelean like categories why some went to a more Sassure view of forming conferences via conceptual differences?

I've been doing statistics all weekend, and I'm thinking in statistical terms. It might be better to say "intra-individual disagreement." I think I'll change that too.

It means that if you test subjects at one time, and then give them a delay, and test them again, their definitions and categorizations will be different a significant percentage of the time. <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fmixingmemory.blogspot.com" TITLE="mixingmemory at gmail dot com">Chris</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1107691934018079382005-02-06T06:12:00.000-06:002005-02-06T06:12:00.000-06:00"(e.g., penguins or emus... sorry Richard)"

I've just one quick question for now: what do you mean by "within subjects disagreement"? Will individuals disagree with their earlier selves about category memberships? Or does it just mean that they can't make up their minds at a particular time? (Or something else entirely...?) <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?pixnaps.blogspot.com%2F" TITLE="r dot chappell at gmail dot com">Richard</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
