7973 | There is no longer anything on which there is nothing to say [Baudrillard] |
Full Idea: There is no longer anything on which there is nothing to say. | |
From: Jean Baudrillard (The Intelligence of Evil [2004], p. 17) | |
A reaction: Compare Ideas 2937 and 6870. I'm not sure whether Baudrillard is referring to the limits of philosophy, or merely to social taboos. I like Ansell Pearson's view: we should attempt to discuss what appears to be undiscussable. |
6841 | Some continental philosophers are relativists - Baudrillard, for example [Baudrillard, by Critchley] |
Full Idea: There are philosophers in the continental tradition who are relativists - Baudrillard, for example. | |
From: report of Jean Baudrillard (works [1976]) by Simon Critchley - Interview with Baggini and Stangroom p.192 | |
A reaction: This remark is in the context of Critchley denying that most continental philosophers are relativists. |
