Lived Experience

What kind of authority do we appeal to when we invoke lived experience? Isn't all experience "lived"? Why does the *discourse* today so frequently refer to this concept, and what are its philosophical origins? In episode 74 of Overthink, Ellie and David discuss the phenomenology of lived experience, including its roots in Dilthey, who considered lived experience to be historical. They incorporate Fanon’s work into the conversation to answer the question of if our lived experience of the world is something that varies along identity lines such as race.Patreon | patreon.com/overthinkpodcast Website | overthinkpodcast.comInstagram & Twitter | @overthink_podEmail |  Dearoverthink@gmail.comYouTube | Overthink podcastWorks Discussed Wilhelm Dilthey, Poetry and ExperienceFranz Fanon, Black Skin, White MasksMartin Jay, Songs of Experience Becca Longtin, “From Factical Life to Art: Reconsidering Heidegger's Appropriation of Dilthey”Pamela Paul, “The Limits of ‘Lived Experience’”Support the show
