Also new today, my fourth piece of advice on writing about history of philosophy: about focusing on the primary text instead of secondary literature (and how to use secondary literature when you do use it).

www.historyofphilosophy.net/rules-writin...

#philosophy #philsky #writingtips

Rules for Writing 4: The primary text is primary | History of Philosophy without any gaps

This overlaps with a point I made in the previous series of “20 rules for doing history of philosophy,” but I’m going to say something similar here because it is so important.

My most controversial seasonal takes:

1) Die Hard is not a Christmas movie
2) Home Alone 2 is better than the original
3) Jaffa cakes are biscuits
