Professor Hepburn on Meaning in Life
Some people do not find much sense in talk about meaning in life. Some people think that such talk cannot have or express any sense, that those who find sense in it must be under an illusion. Some others think that if one is inclined to think that such talk cannot have any sense that is because one...

| 520 | |a Some people do not find much sense in talk about meaning in life. Some people think that such talk cannot have or express any sense, that those who find sense in it must be under an illusion. Some others think that if one is inclined to think that such talk cannot have any sense that is because one misconstrues its logic. So they set off to show us how it is to be construed if what is said here is to make sense. However, there may not really be anything wrong with what they thus set themselves the task of putting right. Their idea that the logic of discourse on meaning in life has been misconstrued may itself come from limitations in their view of logic and its relation to language, from misunderstandings about the logic of our language'. Therefore, as Professor Hepburn rightly points out, such philosophers, in their attempt to prune and rationalise and redefine the vocabulary' in question, will merely succeed in misleading themselves in their appreciation of its logic and, worse still, in their understanding of life. In his article (Questions about the Meaning of Life', Religious Studies, vol. I, 1965-66) Hepburn opposes such simplifications and distortions of logic which may confine our understanding of life. I am in sympathy with his programme, with his desire to fight superficiality, his caution in rejecting brashness. What I want to do is to remark on some of its limitations and to open up some new questions—though it is not my intention here to pursue any of them. | ||
