Somehow (I still wonder) I got to spend an afternoon as a fly-on-the-wall (what could I say?) at a seminar which included Feyerabend and Feigl. Feyerabend was a very down-to-earth fella, with a unique history, and well-armed to defend his thesis. (I know of no Feynman/Feyerabend discussion, but there'd be much common ground.) Polanyi -was- a scientist, and his recognition of the influence of tacit knowledge ... 'an understanding that defies articulation' is equally essential. We all know things we cannot tell. |
