      Congratulations on your accomplishments! I mean both your recovery and your learning a language are noteworthy personal achievements. This lecture will be of particular interest to you. I’ve found reading de Saussure particularly useful in learning Spanish, especially when wrestling with false cognates on one hand, and shades of meaning on another.
      If you find the Structuralism of Levi-Strauss interesting, have a look at Roland Barthes, who wrote about semiotic systems (some quite prosaic). If the Structures of Myth is of interest, you might read Mircea Eliade.
      Sugrue (in my limited exposure) is a great synthesizer. The material he is covering here is material I encountered in varied courses at university in the 80s. I encountered de Saussure in a linguistics class. Levi-Strauss appeared in an anthropology course. The writings of Mircea Eliade and Roland Barthes (and again Levi-Strauss) were course material in a Religious Studies class. I wish I had Dr. Sugrue to tie together this seemingly diverse material.

    I love semiotics and structuralism and deconstruction and just tracing how one idea spurned on the next. Ultimately not a fan of most of where these 💡 have led politically today but like the evolution of thought. This lecture gives me an appreciation of the wider scope Saussure and his followers were aiming for. Parmenedian oneness or wholeness as I think he puts it.

      I personally like Magliolia’s take on Derrida, which is to say that Derrida went deep into the philosophical tradition in order to understand and expound its inadequacy. The missing element is when people read Derrida and assume they don’t have to learn the tradition themselves because “Derrida said it was bullshit”.

      @@dr.michaelsugrue Maybe, it's just an analogical example out of many, where "Dust" is that underlying substratum? For instance, [ Bread ] is the opposite of [ Bones ]. Just like the professor said, structures not contents. Though still it poses a question between "The nature of dust" and "the characteristics of dust", both the differences and similarities.

    I want to go into a little bit more detail why I think Strauss created pseudoscience:
    imagine a "structuralist" mineralogist. He looks around (like a functionalist) and constructs a minimal table of what possible minerals there could be: sand, granite, boxite clay. Obviously all minerals can only be permutations of these three. Malinowski goes to Trobriand Islands and discovers gneiss. Or better yet, volcanic sulfur. Well, structuralist is unphased: sulfur is just sand, but with some quality of clay and firm almost like granite.
    Just like psychoanalysis, structuralism is not "incorrect", it's simply can never be wrong. There is no procedure that could ever prove something untrue within structuralism.

    14:35 he says " we move from the city to the man ", i guess. But should not it be the other way round meaning from the man to the city.

    2:58, Sounds like category theory to me., "connect these structures, structurally one might imagine, to find a larger structure. This large structure of structures will be the structure of human existence itself in a sort of logical algebraic form". Pretty close!

      What came first? Levi-Strauss was developing his ideas in the 40s and 50s, and published his first work on structural anthropology in 1959. Category theory came out in the mid 40s? But Levi-Strauss was explicitly drawing from the ideas of de Saussure, who gave his Course in General Linguistics in 1911!
      I know very little about Category Theory, other than the vague notion that it’s related to topology, perhaps a sub-branch. On a related note, I recently discovered how to remove a shirt while wearing overalls, without unhooking the overall’s straps. I was proud of this achievement in practical topology, and spent the next few hours demonstrating it to anyone willing to watch.

      @@MarcosElMalo2 The ideas of category theory came out of algebraic topology, but it's really a theory of mathematical structures themselves (and how they relate) more than a branch of anything else. It's about how the different branches of math relate to each other.

    So cows can't be eaten in India. I understand it's for religus reasons but is power and fear a factor to? Did a person in a position of power decide this for whatever reason?

      That wasn’t the point at all of Claude Levi-Strauss’s work. I think you’re looking for some other lecture.

      Why can't I order dog in Ireland? In fact I might go to jail for selling dog meat and be labelled an immoral monster. Yet I can abort my unborn children on a whim and be classed brave for such an action. I find it ridiculous how those who scream against power structures are so deeply entremched in them themselves. They cannot see their own dogma and blindly assume it is not dogma but self evident reality.

    O.k. beginner here but this sounds like Plato except that Plato had a healthy disrespect for writing. What I know so far is that there are two great schools of philosophy - materialism and idealism. Structuralism is idealist, yes? So why did people retreat from science to quasi religious idealism?
