Categories was very tricky for me to understand, but thankfully On Interpretation (as my book calls it) seems easier to grasp, though it'll still take some work. Thank you for these very helpful videos.
Not sure. _De Interpretatione_ contains far more obscure passages than the _Categories,_ and its subject (namely, the enunciation) is more complicated.
Prof. I heard of a nut case political philosopher from Russia and his crazy ideas from his book Foundations of Geopolitics ( a word that has become common now), called Aleksandar Dugin. He has this idea that Russia should rule the world. His ideas seem to be practiced now
Someone, possibly another Russian or Ukrainian, made an assassination attempt against him, but unfortunately his daughter got blown up instead. Difficult to feel anything for the said political "philosopher"..more of sophist or some kind of gnostic or terrorist..when the man has been encouraging nothing short of a world war( between the Heartland and the other).
Thank you, Sir. I'm learning some philosophy by own and I think this is easy to understand.
Glad they have been helpful!
