The Word And The World | Paul Boghossian, Joanna Kavenna, Ray Monk

Philosophy For Our Times - A podcast by The Institute of Art and Ideas

Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimes The power of words is a wonder, and language perhaps our greatest skill. Yet the gap between the sound of a bell and its description is huge. Are the limits to language so profound that the big questions of science and philosophy are beyond us? Or can everything be said if we try hard enough? Director of the New York Institute of Philosophy Paul Boghossian, Wittgenstein biographer and philosopher Ray Monk, and award winning novelist Joanna Kavenna debate the limits of language.
