Extractions: APR Wilfrid Stalker Sellars (b. 1912, d. 1989) was a profoundly creative and synthetic thinker whose work both as a systematic philosopher and as an influential editor helped set and shape the Anglo-American philosophical agenda for over four decades. Sellars is perhaps best known for his classic 1956 essay "Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind", a comprehensive and sophisticated critique of "the myth of the given" which played a major role in the postwar deconstruction of Cartesianism, but his published corpus of three books and more than one hundred essays includes numerous original contributions to ontology, epistemology, and the philosophies of science, language, and mind, as well as sensitive historical and exegetical studies. 1912 born May 20 in Ann Arbor, MI

Extractions: Wilfrid Sellars was an American philosopher whose methodology combined aspects of logical positivism and analytic philosophy, resulting in a radical critique of prevailing notions of human knowledge and epistemology. According to Sellars, "The aim of philosophy is to understand how things in the broadest possible sense of the term hang together in the broadest possible sense of the term." Sellars disagreed with the traditional account of knowledge as a simple line between sense data and epistemic judgements (statements of belief or knowledge). Instead, Sellars argued that knowledge is a social and linguistic affair, dependent upon things like giving reasons, making arguments, etc.

Extractions: Wilfrid Sellars is the greatest American philosopher since Charles Sanders Peirce. He is the most profound and systematic epistemological thinker of the 20th Century. When intellectual historians look back at the progress of philosophy, our century will appear as a time when, after three hundred and fifty years, we finally saw through Descartes. It is in our time that the collection of puzzles and problems that have collected around the Cartesian dualism of body and mind has been supplanted by those associated with what now appears to be the more fundamental Humean-Kantian dualism of fact and norm, which appeared only darkly and misleadingly in its Cartesian guise. Heading the list of names they will associate with that conceptual sea-change are Wittgenstein and Sellars. Our century will also appear as having placed language at the center of the semantic stage that categories of thought used to occupy. Concern with ideas has been succeeded by concern with meanings and sentences. Heading the list of names they will associate with that shift of problematic are those of Wittgenstein, Dummett, Quine, and Sellars. Alone among this distinguished group, Sellars never allows his recoil from Cartesian models of the mind to drive him into behaviorist hostility to inner episodes as such he has always taken seriously the fact that "all is not dark within". The last hundred years have been a time of unprecedented progress in formal logic. When the historians look back to the crucial philosophical appreciations of the expressive role played by formal logistical idioms and its lessons for understanding the structure of the scientific enterprise and its products, heading the list of authors will be Frege, Russell, Carnap, and Sellars.

http://atheism.about.com/library/FAQs/phil/blphil_mind_index.htm

Extractions: The relatively recent specialty known as Philosophy of Mind deals with questions of consciousness and how it interacts with the body and the outside world. Thus, it asks not only what mental phenomena are and what gives rise to them, but also what relationship they have to the larger physical body and the world around us. This is essentially a subspeciality of Metaphysics because it addresses the fundamental nature of a specific aspect of reality: the mind. For some, depending upon their other views on
