When Language Fails: Ontological Pluralism and the Limits of Moral Resolution: 1 - Brossura
Libro 1 di 2: Philosophics Press Monographs
Sinossi
Why do some arguments never resolve? Why do intelligent people talk past one another, armed with the same words but reaching incompatible conclusions?
In When Language Fails, philosopher Bry Willis argues that these impasses are not simply the result of poor reasoning or bad faith. They are structural. Building on his earlier work, A Language Insufficiency Hypothesis, Willis contends that certain concepts fail to converge because they arise from different ontological grammars—distinct, historically sedimented frameworks that shape what counts as real, coherent, and meaningful.
What appears to be irrationality is often misalignment. What feels like moral failure may be ontological divergence.
Moving beneath surface disagreement, When Language Fails explores the limits of translation between conceptual worlds. Drawing on philosophy of language, hermeneutics, and social theory, Willis challenges the assumption that clearer definitions or better arguments will always bridge divides.
Some conflicts persist not because we refuse to listen, but because we inhabit different worlds.
