10/22 session

PHIL 317, History of American philosophy, Fall 2026

1 Assignment

You’re going to bring a complete draft of your unit 2 commentary (on any of Cavell, Fuller, or Douglass). Expect to give a one-minute statement of the main claim of your commentary and its textual evidence. Over the course of the session, we’re going to discuss how to ‘use’ textual evidence, as well as discuss the substance of these three authors’ views. You will then be permitted to submit a revised version of your unit 2 commentary after our in-class discussion.
