Abstract
GUZMAN, Luis. Of Dualisms and Domestications: Davidson, McDowell and Hegel. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2016, vol.65, n.160, pp.75-93. ISSN 0120-0062. https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v65n160.43439.
The revival of interest in Hegel in contemporary philosophical world is based on several reasons: the overcoming of the dualism between conceptual scheme and content (Davidson, McDowell), the dissipation of the myth of the given (Sellars, Quine), and inferentialism (Brandom). Regarding the first point, John McDowell tries to overcome this dualism by making use of Hegel, whose rhetoric requires domestication. The article seeks to illuminate the scope and some limitations of this proposal in its attempt to dismantle philosophy from a permanent movement between the myth of the given or immediacy, on the one hand, and coherentism, on the other.
