Talk:Brand Blanshard

message: A very good article on Brand Blanshard.  I was much impressed with his book _Reason and Analysis_ which, at least to my mind, was a demolition job of currents in analytic philosophy, though I isagree with Blanshard's own positive views.  
I still can't figure out how someone like Blanshard, who writes in a clear, rational fashion gets lets attention than an obscurantist like Heidegger or one who writes in an ocular fashion like Wittgenstein.
:I fear the explanation is sadly obvious :>(

message: The contributions of Ryle, Quine, Wittgenstein, and Heidegger all pale by comparison with Blanshard's.  However, this counts for much less than it should while Blanshard goes unread - by both the public and by other professional philosophers.  What is much needed, therefore, is a Blanshard Society, which would have as its aim, among other things, the examination of Blanshard's thought with reference to contemporary philosophical, social, and political issues.  This could be done in a very low-cost electronic format.
I made a preliminary attempt to establish such a society a few years ago, but those principally interested in the thought of Blanshard had numerous other commitments at that time.  However, I remain interested in the establishment of a society of this kind, and a related e-journal.
