Three lectures recorded from a recent series
1:' Le Penseur' and the Tennis Player
Reflecting and Thinking by Gilbert Ryle Waynflete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy in the University of Oxford
' When we think in the abstract about thinking, it is usually reflecting, calculating, deliberating, etc., that we attend to. It is from their reflecting that we grade Plato and Euclid as thinkers: we do not so grade Bradman, Chaplin, and Tintoretto.' Are we right?
, made by courtesy of the University of Southampton Predictability and Freewill in Human Affairs by Professor G. P. Henderson : August 23
