Methods of Philosophizing

Phenomenology
Phenomenology, It brings varied perceptions over a thing to
a common end that certain things no matter how different
the perspective of people towards it due to their experiences
that would receive justification of its being.

Nagdudulot ito ng iba't ibang pananaw sa isang bagay sa


isang pangkaraniwang wakas nang mga bagay gaano man
kaiba ang pananaw ng mga tao patungo dito dahil sa kanilang
mga karanasan na makakatanggap ng pagbibigay-katwiran
ukol dito.
Ex.
In this image you may look at it
as half full, some look at it as its
empty. This thing may appear in
different perspectives.

In applying phenomenology, one


must go back to its original
meaning or “thing-init-self”
(according to Encyclopedia) that
is simply a glass of water.
Existentialism
• A philosophical view that asserts the individuality of
any human person making him free to make choices
of what he is and what he can become.

• isang pananaw na iginagait ang indibiduwal ng


sinumang tao sa paggawa ng kanya malayang pagpili
kung ano siya at ano ang maaari niyang maging.
Ex.
• Determining your career choice based on
what you think is an important way to
spend your future.
• You fall in love and want to live with that
person forever. Then you discover that
person does not feel the same way.
• This means that we are unique and would
most likely have a future that is true to our
own person and not what is being dictated
by our parents and friends.

• At what Jean-Paul Sartre says, “freedom is


the identity of a man”.
Analytic Philosophy
• States that “assumption of truth only becomes true
after it shall have gone through validation,
experimentation or any scientific approach for that
matter.

• palagay ng katotohanan lamang ang nagiging totoo


matapos itong dumaan sa kumpirmasyon,
eksperimento o anumang siyentipikong paraan para
sa bagay na iyon.
Ex.
• There are questions teachers ask that may elicit
different responses. But there is only one definite
correct answer and this answer is usually supported
by a concept or a theory which is a product of
scientific process.

• A husband is a married man therefore husband is an


analyzed concept while a married man is the analysis
of the concept. In analytic philosophy we analyze the
concept and check its validity by testing the analysis.
Deductive Reasoning

• There are usually complex thoughts we


encounter, and it takes a hard time to
understand what is expressed in it.
• But with the help of deductive reasoning we
can chunk the entire thought into smaller
units to arrive at a simpler presentation.
Ex.

• Premises: All teachers are smart people. Some smart


people are studious.
• Conclusion: Some smart people are teachers.

• Premises: All students are kind. Pedro is a student.


• Conclusion: Pedro is kind.
Dialectic
“Dialectics” is a term used to describe a
method of philosophical argument that
involves some sort of contradictory process
between opposing sides.
Ex.

• I feel happy and I feel sad


• It’s snowing and It’s spring
• I love you and I hate you
• I feel to tired to work and I can do may work
anyway
