  • Stanley Cavell interviewed by Naoko Saito

    Open Access•Stanley Cavell, Naoko Saito•ARTICLE•Journal of Philosophy of Education•2025

    In this interview with Naoko Saito, Stanley Cavell responds to questions about how he became interested in Wittgenstein and his sense of Wittgenstein’s fundamental importance for the question of what philosophy is or can be. Wittgenstein’s difference from Dewey and pragmatism is discussed in relation to the tone of philosophy, including possibilities of its not being characterized by polemical argument or geared towards problem-solving. This deve…

  • Walden in Tokyo

    Open Access•Stanley Cavell•ARTICLE•Journal of Philosophy of Education•2025

    Stanley Cavell wrote this article on the occasion of the first publication of one of his books in Japanese.

    Je suis profondément honoré et touché de recevoir un Doctorat honoris causa de cette grande institution qu’est l’École normale supérieure de Lyon, et je suis très reconnaissant à l’École, à la communauté de ses enseignants et chercheurs, et à son directeur, Monsieur Olivier Faron, de m’avoir accordé ce diplôme, et d’avoir ainsi offert une telle reconnaissance à l’œuvre de toute ma vie.

    Open Access•Esteban Buch, Stanley Cavell et al.•BOOK•Théories ordinaires•2013

    L’opposition épistémologique radicale de la théorie « savante » aux « savoirs ordinaires » doit-elle nous conduire à penser que les savoirs opératoires seraient dénués de toute capacité autodescriptive ou bien, au contraire, ignorer ce cadre d’analyse, en gommant les formes les plus rationalisées de la théorie scientifique, nous apporterait-il plus de clarté conceptuelle ? Pour sortir de ces impasses, l’ambition de cet ouvrage collectif est de pr…

    Dans cette conversation, le philosophe américain et le cinéaste français font part de leur passion pour les films et un style d'analyse qui ne cherche pas dans les films l'illustration d'une pensée. Au contraire, le cinéma nous apprend sur nous-mêmes quelque chose que ni la philosophie ni les autres arts ne peuvent nous faire comprendre : comment croire au monde

  • Passionate and Performative Utterance Morals of Encounter

    Stanley Cavell•CHAPTER•Contending with Stanley Cavell•2005

    In Aristotle’s Categories, meant to list the basic objects or components of thought, the little that is said about the concept of passion (or affection) is paired with the concept of action, and the only example offered, I believe (in chapter 4, referred back to in chapter 9), is the following: ‘“To lance,’ ‘to cauterize’ [are terms indicating] action; ‘to be lanced,’ ‘to be cauterized,’ affection.” Call this the metaphysical sense of passion. Th…

Or has it-in the metaphysical riot of its greatest literature? Has the impulse to philosophical speculation been absorbed, or exhausted, by speculation in territory, as in such thoughts as Manifest Destiny? Or are such questions not…

The three brief citations I have taken from Kateb are from that portion of his manuscript that he chose to send me as a proposed text for my response, a text of seventy-three pages entitled Emerson's Philosophy of Self-reliant Activity. Since this was a typescript, …

    Stanley Cavell•ARTICLE•Inquiry•1958

    That what we ordinarily say and mean may have a direct and deep control over what we can philosophically say and mean is an idea which many philosophers find oppressive. It might be argued that in part the oppression results from misunderstanding; that the new philosophy which proceeds from ordinary language is not that different from traditional methods of philosophising, and that the frequent attacks upon it are misdirected. But I shall not att…

    Stanley Cavell•ARTICLE•New Literary History•1979

    T _HIS ACCOUNT of my experience of Preston Sturges's The Lady Eve is shaped around two claims. The first claim is that this film is one of six or seven main films constituting a genre of Hollywood talkies of thirties and forties. I shall call genre the comedy of remarriage. Its other main instances are It Happened One Night, His Girl Friday, The Awful Truth, The Philadelphia Story, and Adam's Rib; and I will also, for reasons given elsewhere,1 fe…
