  • The selection principle was not to interview everyone who is a philosopher in America (or even the most famous ones). The idea was to talk to people who self-identify as American philosophers explicitly and to investigate the union of those terms. Many of them are affiliated with the Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy, an organization founded (like SPEP) to mitigate the near hegemony of analytic philosophy in the US. See Phillip McReynolds channel for the whole film.

  • This looks interesting. Thanks for the heads up!

  • I wish there had been some more well known philosophers. Most of those people I had never heard of.

  • I had just about given up hope of ever seeing this movie. From the various clips I have seen it should be excellent.

  • Fascinating; on my to-do list

  • @renumeratedfrog

    Oh come on, you must have heard about Sartwell and Campbell right?

  • Hmm, hadn't heard of this, have to check it out. Thanks.

  • This is going on my watch later list...

    Great stuff.

    Thanks!

  • Thanks for letting us know about McReynolds' upload!

  • Who are those people? Other than Rorty and Putnam, I've never heard of any of them. Where's John Searle? Where's Dennett? Where's Martha Nussbaum?

  • This looks very interesting, I can't wait to watch it (:
