So I'm taking a class called Theory of Knowledge. It's pretty much a Philosophy class. We have an assignment to find a song/movie/book/etc that exemplifies Propositional Knowledge.
Propositional Knowledge has three different distinctions that need to be made between propositions. 1) Empirical - statements of fact (You should not waste food.) Normative - value judgements based on norms (Waste not, want not.) Metaphysical - expresses one's basic world view (my teacher said Annie Hall was a good one for this) (I think you should not waste food.) 2) A priori - proposition whose truth is knowable prior to experience (the amount of food wasted is about 20% of what is used.) 3) Analytic - true by virtue of the meanings of their parts ---- And naturally, I can't think of anything. Aside from Donnie Darko, which I can't make sense of. My friend's bringing in Empire Records. My teacher mentioned The Butterfly Effect last week (although I watched it and it made sense at first, when you think about it it makes NO SENSE AT ALL). So can anyone here think of a movie, song, book, etc, that fits into one of those categories? I'm talking to one of my friends and she says Natural Born Killers or The Matrix would work. But I want some more opinions. Thanks for any help! (This is due tomorrow, by the way. Yay, procrastination!) ![]() |
