I think this one’s Wittgenstein, Too

Graham writes about Continental peeps’ favorite analytics:

The Derrideans tend to like Davidson; I myself do not. (In fact, I find Davidson rather annoying even in his attitude.)

Or maybe it’s J.L. Austin, since so many read him to understand performativity? Bill Martin at DePaul used to go to me about Davidson and I picked up a few books and, even if they were essay collections and should have been easier to get through, I just couldn’t share Bill’s enthusiasm.
