What is Structuralism?

This video lecture discusses the meaning, nature, and dynamics of the philosophical doctrine called "structuralism".
Structuralism is one of the most influential intellectual movements in the twentieth-century which embraces a wide variety of intellectual disciplines, such as linguistics, aesthetics, anthropology, sociology, and psychoanalysis. But it must be noted that structuralism is above all a “method”. As a method, structuralism aims to analyze isolated events or meanings in terms of their underlying structural laws. It seeks to comprehend “particulars” by describing their interrelationship within the totality of general codes which govern them. It also looks for the deep and other hidden structures beneath the surface manifestations of meaning.

[@shaunleo3426]

i came for an explanation and i came out more confused than i was before i watched the video lol

[@PHILOnotes]

yeah, I understand, mate. There are indeed difficult concepts that are reserved to brilliant people only.

[@shaunleo3426]

well the way you explained this concept would take a brilliant person to understand that shitty explanation

[@PHILOnotes]

@@shaunleo3426 yeah, thank you

[@PHILOnotes]

@@shaunleo3426 thank you, mate. If you can produce a better explanation, I will delete this video.

[@AniLuong]

[@AsiaAbdullahh]

Damn I feel so stupid.. couldn’t get it even after this. English is my second language but everything seems complicated

[@muffintb3205]

No worries, Asghar. Cheers!

That hand writing across the screen is irritatingly obnoxious. It would have been better with just the text, minus that hand.

[@cyb3rc1ty]

Then just listen goofball

[@comical4609]

So basically structuralism seeks to find commonalities within systems, is what I get.

[@adnanerochdi6982]

Sounds like Lissa Su, AMD's CEO.

[@PHILOnotes]

Oh, I see. Thanks Adriane!

[@xiioh6788]

Pronounce it as sOssuGH not sOssEW

[@TheItrucker]

Blow it up....blow it ALL up!

[@lalala4476]

Loved it!

[@PHILOnotes]

Many thanks, LaLaLa. Glad you love our video lecture. Cheers!

[@aldhieu.a.teodocio8796]

Is this Philippine English?

[@PHILOnotes]

Hi Teodocio, I don't subscribe to the idea that there is "American English", or "British English", or "Philippine English". There is just an "English" spoken by an American, British, Canadia, Australia, or Asian. In my case, it's Australian-Filipino. Thank you so much.

[@aldhieu.a.teodocio8796]

@@PHILOnotes This dialect sounds like the Standard Philippine English.

[@PHILOnotes]

@@aldhieu.a.teodocio8796 thanks Teodocio. yeah, I am a Filipino-Australian

[@kailawkamo1568]

Dialects exist where you like it or not bruh haha

[@kessyowhoko4128]

I enjoyed and loved it thank you

[@laurenmcconnachie424]

Would be much better with someone speaking not a robot! Sounds boring and hard to engage.

[@PHILOnotes]

No, it's not a robot. It's real person.

[@Ranarosh102]

Please explain how to do structural analysis of a novel?

We will include this topic in the pipeline, Roshni. Cheers!
