Lanier Anderson is a cofounder of Stanford's Philosophical and Literary Thought programme and a professor in the Philosophy Department. He claims that philosophy and literature are not that different after all, and that both may be demonstrated using the same book. Plato's dialogues, Borges' short tale "Pierre Menard, Autór del Quixote," which investigates the idea of authorship, and Camus' work The Plague, which investigates the perception of freedom, are all examples of this accomplishment. He is a professor in the Philosophy Department at Stanford University and the originator of the University's Philosophical and Literary Thought programme, which aims to break down boundaries between educational disciplines.
Lanier Anderson is a professor in the Philosophy Department at Stanford and co-founder of the university's Philosophical and Literary Thought program. He argues that philosophy and literature are not that great after all, and that they can each be illustrated with very identical text. The paradigms of this achievement are Plato's dialogues, Borges' short story "Pierre Menard, Autór del Quixote" which examines the perception of fatherhood, and Camus' novel La Peste which examines the perception of freedom. He is a professor in Stanford's Department of Philosophy and co-founder of the university's Philosophical and Literary Thought program, which aims to break down barriers between educational disciplines whose research applies to the observation of literature and philosophy. (Guests and visitors agree that "from time to time" is a crucial qualifier here; literary techniques are not very advanced compared to conventional philosophical techniques when it comes to answering difficult questions. .). Anderson questions whether literature represents truths, rather than telling them. Why do I cry for Anna Karenina or despise Iago? Third, some philosophers have considered the perception of narrativity. Does literature present truths instead of telling them? For the most part, English-speaking philosophers use dry, pedantic prose. Some philosophers, such as Wittgenstein, write in a dramatic "aphoristic" manner. Some wonderful parts of philosophy, such as Plato's Banquet, are also wonderful literature. Itinerant Philosophical Report (Let's try to find it
