On Continental Philosophy?

In this episode, Ahmed and Emile discuss philosophical texts and infinite interpretive possibilities they yield. Beginning with an exploration of the methodology of "reversal" employed by various thinkers, Emile suggests that it makes us stuck in the same interpretations of history and the world.

He proposes an alternative approach that emphasizes recovering less-interpreted aspects of classical texts, such as Plato’s dialogues, and making it a blueprint for understanding contemporary problems. The discussion further delves into the limitations of propositional and calculative modes of thought while welcoming poetry as a valid form of philosophical expression.
