  • Expressivism, Pragmatism and Representationalism

    by Huw Price, Simon Blackburn, Robert Brandom, Paul Horwich, Michael Williams ...
    Pragmatists have traditionally been enemies of representationalism but friends of naturalism, when naturalism is understood to pertain to human subjects, in the sense of Hume and Nietzsche. In this volume Huw Price presents his distinctive version of this traditional combination, as delivered in his René Descartes Lectures at Tilburg University in 2008. Price contrasts his view with other ... Read more

  • Dialectic of the Ladder

    Wittgenstein, the 'Tractatus' and Modernism

    by Ben Ware ...
    Ludwig Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1922) remains one of the most enigmatic works of twentieth century thought. In this bold and original new study, Ben Ware argues that Wittgenstein's early masterpiece is neither an analytic treatise on language and logic, nor a quasi-mystical work seeking to communicate 'ineffable' truths. Instead, we come to understand the Tractatus by ... Read more

  • Paraconsistency: Logic and Applications

    Edited by Koji Tanaka, Francesco Berto, Edwin Mares, Francesco Paoli ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    A logic is called 'paraconsistent' if it rejects the rule called 'ex contradictione quodlibet', according to which any conclusion follows from inconsistent premises. While logicians have proposed many technically developed paraconsistent logical systems and contemporary philosophers like Graham Priest have advanced the view that some contradictions can be true, and advocated a paraconsistent logic ...

  • Kazimierz Opałek Selected Papers in Legal Philosophy

    Edited by Jan Wolenski ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Philosophical aspects of law and jurisprudence are investigated from various points of view. This collection represents the analytic approach to legal philosophy. However, this approach is not extreme in the sense that it is limited exclusively to linguistic matters. The concept of norm as a directive of conduct is the central category analyzed in particular essays. The structure of directives as ... Read more

  • Words and Objections

    Essays on the Work of W.V. Quine

    Edited by D. Davidson, Jaakko Hintikka ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    It is gratifying to see that philosophers' continued interest in Words and Objections has been so strong as to motivate a paperback edition. This is gratifying because it vindicates the editors' belief in the permanent im portance of Quine's philosophy and in the value of the papers com menting on it which were collected in our volume. Apart from a couple of small corrections, only one change has ... Read more

  • Ontology after Carnap

    Edited by Stephan Blatti, Sandra Lapointe ...
    Analytic philosophy is once again in a methodological frame of mind. Nowhere is this more evident than in metaphysics, whose practitioners and historians are actively reflecting on the nature of ontological questions, the status of their answers, and the relevance of contributions both from other areas within philosophy (e.g., philosophical logic, semantics) and beyond (notably, the natural ...
