Know thyself, the inscription at the shrine of Delphi reads. But can we truly know ourselves, like the Ancient Greeks believed? In episode 61 of Overthink, Ellie and David explore the concept of self-knowledge from looking inside ourselves to the reflection we put out into the world. Do we gain self knowledge through introspection, or are there better ways of finding out who we are? They discuss everything from imagination to doubting as a way to get a sense of ourselves.Works DiscussedCatriona MacKenzie, Relational Autonomy: Feminist Perspectives on Autonomy, Agency, and the Social SelfHenri Bergson, Creative EvolutionHenri Bergson, The Creative Mind: An Introduction to MetaphysicsJimena Canales, The Physicist and the Philosopher: Einstein, Bergson, and the Debate That Changed Our Understanding of Time Krista Lawlor, “Knowing What One Wants”Montaigne, Essays of MontaignePlato, DialoguesRené Descartes, Discourse on MethodRené Descartes, Meditations on First PhilosophyRichard Moran, Authority and EstrangementWilliam James, The Principles of PsychologyPatreon | patreon.com/overthinkpodcast Website | overthinkpodcast.comInstagram & Twitter | @overthink_podEmail |  Dearoverthink@gmail.comYouTube | Overthink podcastSupport the show
