    Edited by J. van der Veken, Hubert Van Belle, Diederik Aerts ...

  • Categories (Mobi Classics)

    by Aristotle,E. M. Edghill (Translator) ...
    Things are said to be named 'equivocally' when, though they have a common name, the definition corresponding with the name differs for each. Thus, a real man and a figure in a picture can both lay claim to the name 'animal'; yet these are equivocally so named, for, though they have a common name, the definition corresponding with the name differs for each. For should any one define in what sense ... Read more

  • 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

  • Truth as One and Many

    by Michael P. Lynch ...
    What is truth? Michael Lynch defends a bold new answer to this question. Traditional theories of truth hold that truth has only a single uniform nature. All truths are true in the same way. More recent deflationary theories claim that truth has no nature at all; the concept of truth is of no real philosophical importance. In this concise and clearly written book, Lynch argues that we should reject ... Read more

  • The World-Time Parallel

    Tense and Modality in Logic and Metaphysics

    by A. A. Rini, M. J. Cresswell ...
    Is what could have happened but never did as real as what did happen? What did happen, but isn't happening now, happened at another time. Analogously, one can say that what could have happened happens in another possible world. Whatever their views about the reality of such things as possible worlds, philosophers need to take this analogy seriously. Adriane Rini and Max Cresswell exhibit, in an ... Read more
