Favorite Philosophy Blogs?

August 8, 2010 by Mark Linsenmayer 10 Comments

As I've been checking out various philosophy podcasts, it struck me that I've neglected looking into online philosophy blogs. There's good reason for this, of course: if I'm at a computer (or iPhone or whatever) reading philosophy, I'm probably doing research for one of our episodes. If podcasting weren't such a new medium, and you all had ready access to a myriad of recordings of, e.g. Rousseu and Hume mixin' it up over drinks, then no doubt we'd have a harder time getting an audience for our little recorded study group.

So, I'm requesting your help in telling us what philosophy blogs out there provide you with some entertainment value, as opposed to self-important Nietzsche-wannabes putting up cryptic treatises that could not stand up to peer review or polemically charged screeds documenting the author's ongoing battle with the forces of ignorance.

On second thought, go ahead and link me to the terrible blogs you know about as well, so we can all feel uncomfortable together.

    Good podcasts where they interview experts in various fields of philosophy to explain a certain aspect of a philosopher’s thought in 10-15 minutes.

        That’s a Nigel thing, not an us thing. His SSL certificate expired or something.

    I agree. I love Warburton’s stuff. http://tar.weatherson.org/ isn’t too shabby but it’s sporadic.

    “On second thought, go ahead and link me to the terrible blogs you know about as well, so we can all feel uncomfortable together.”

    To get this particular ball rolling a link to my upcoming blog, “Ontology and me makes three” will be posted as soon as it becomes available.

    Hands down the best philosophy of religion blog is Common Sense Atheism. He focuses on meta-ethics, ethics, and philosophy of religion by disseminating the contemporary literature on these topics. It is fantastically done. He would actually make for a great guest (IMO) if you guys every touch on any of these topics in the future. He has a podcast as well.

    I like the Guardian’s philosophy blog, How to Believe:

    Hello everyone, I recently learned that the Philosophy of Psychology is a relatively young special branch of the philosophy of science, which is engaged in the study and study of the methodology of empirical psychology obtained in the science of psychology. Did you know that I used to be the winner of Primacy Effect knowledge competitions. It is generally accepted that the philosophy of psychology should deal with the analysis of acquired knowledge in psychology, psychological theories regarding their scientific nature and reliability, reveal the ideological foundations of the corresponding theory, study the nature of the laws established by them. and semantically analyze theories.

About The Partially Examined Life

The Partially Examined Life is a philosophy podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don’t have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we’re talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion

Become a PEL Citizen!

As a PEL Citizen, you’ll have access to a private social community of philosophers, thinkers, and other partial examiners where you can join or initiate discussion groups dedicated to particular readings, participate in lively forums, arrange online meet-ups for impromptu seminars, and more.
