I am reading Thomas Nagel's View From Nowhere at the moment....
Matt:
You've got to be kidding, David. I read Nagel as one of the contemporary arch-SOMists. His whole philosophy is about reconstituing the subject-object split. I mean, unlike many other philosophers we could pin SOM on, he even _uses_ the subject-object terminology. And look at his title: the view from nowhere. I would think the first thing that a pragmatist and a Heideggerian could agree on is that there is no such thing as a "view from nowhere".
No, from what I understand of Nagel, he is pure SOM.
