Ian T. Ramsey's Models and Mystery - an Investigation of Metaphors with Tyler Calder Vertical Thinking with Nathan Cheever
-
- Philosophy
This week, Nate and Tyler discuss a short essay by Ian T. Ramsey called Models and Mystery. And as the name implies, we go beyond the syntax and into Ramsey's ideas of cosmological connection that metaphor makes possible. This isn't like how you learned about metaphors in high school.
We'll discuss what metaphors are, not just syntactically, but how they function as "signposts of disclosure" to meaning. We range far and wide, discussing Led Zeppelin, science, theology, and beyond.
