1. Philosophy / D. Nature of Philosophy / 3. Philosophy Defined
Philosophy is the most general intellectual discipline [Horsten]
     Full Idea: Philosophy is the most general intellectual discipline.
     From: Leon Horsten (The Tarskian Turn [2011], 05.1)
     A reaction: Very simple, but exactly how I see the subject. It is continuous with the sciences, and tries to give an account of nature, but operating at an extreme level of generality. It must respect the findings of science, but offer bold interpretations.
