Presented by Nadia Cambon, Collaborator at the University Center, Valeria Edelszten and Claudio Cormic presented their book “Arguments in a Tile”, within the course of conferences and extension workshops proposed by the Civilkoy University Center, with free access.
“It is the biggest call we have received so far,” acknowledged both authors in an interview with L.A. RAZÓN, “in the “Argumentour” that we have been doing in different cities, we have already been to several, and the truth is that we are both surprised and very grateful to Çivilkoy for the way he greeted us “.
“Everything that involves communicating science and philosophy helps more people expand their universes,” Valeria says, “I really like the idea of thinking about potential universes, so when we communicate science, what we do is try to approximate the way we think, how we think, how we structure scientific thought. It’s a way to democratize knowledge and access everywhere. It’s something that people are often underestimated, when they don’t pass by, there are spaces and there are many people interested, and it is a pleasure to be part of this collective building process.”
arguments
“We wanted to write a book on philosophy that worked on the idea of thinking about philosophy with the reader, in fact we didn’t make a book in which philosophy is presented as something vague, with words like ‘abtruse,’ laughing, ‘We don’t want to breed fans who don’t understand what We say it but we think it’s a shame, what we want are people who discuss it with us, who can introduce themselves to philosophy from the basis of argument, that is, to put arguments on the table to draw certain conclusions later, and that’s something we can do together”
Tiles is a football metaphor, “It’s like in football that you can move in a small space, in a square meter, it’s exactly the beauty of a good philosophical argument that it also works with few resources, on the bare minimum on the grounds that it can show a completely unexpected result You don’t always need pages and pages of information to arrive at a philosophically interesting conclusion,” Claudio noted.
Valeria adds: “This is something a little different from science,” “If I wanted to share scientific knowledge, I wouldn’t be able to reproduce live experiences there until they could see this or that, and that could simply be proven by the data collected, however Philosophical arguments can be reconstructed and that’s what we do in the presentation of the book, is to build an argument and make it publicly available, because philosophical arguments are transferable, while scientific experiments are not, and then we carry them in a little bag of arguments and we make them available for the followers, readers and listeners to discuss collectively, that’s the plan” .
What happens when we run out of arguments?
“Like Shakira,” they agree, “it could mean that at the moment I have nothing else to say, which would not be so serious,” Claudio adds, “we have to get out of the idea that every debate should be ended as if we were on a talk show, Perhaps now I have not found the argument, I will answer you tomorrow.Discussions take time, and may now also mean that I have nothing new to respond to a particular objection, and in the course of time this argument has been disproved.
Arguments via Twitter
From the tour and presentation, he especially invites you to look for it on social networks, “We really like the interaction on Twitter, everything turned out a little, in some kind of thread, you can find us through the hasthag #argumentosenunabaldosa, it is very easy, and also through private profiles Us like claudiojaviercm and valearvejita,” they pointed out.
They concluded, “The plan is for them to come and join the discussion and the argument, because we like to build collectively.”
