Abstract
In what words might I speak of my delight and my gratitude for the life and work of Stanley Cavell? Beyond the attraction certain regions of philosophy hold for anthropology, I might ask what is it in this philosopher that invites me to his world? The publication of Little Did I Know: Excerpts from Memory is first and foremost (for me at any rate), an affirmation of the question Cavell once asked: Does the biblical injunction, “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor” (Exodus 20:16), include the injunction that you shall not bear false witness to yourself? The resonance of this idea with the words he recorded on July 4th 2003 is worth noting.
