Ordinary Objects
ISBN: 9780199764440 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Arguments that ordinary inanimate objects such as tables and chairs, sticks and stones, simply do not exist have become increasingly common and increasingly prominent. Some are based on demands for parsimony or for a non-arbitrary answer to the special composition question; others arise from prohibitions against causal redundancy, ontological vagueness, or co-location; and others still come from worries that a common sense ontology would be a rival to a scientific one. Until now, little has been done to address these arguments in a unified and systematic way. Ordinary Objects is...

Ontology Made Easy
ISBN: 9780190878665 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 362 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Existence questions have been topics for heated debates in metaphysics, but this book argues that they can often be answered easily, by trivial inferences from uncontroversial premises. This 'easy' approach to ontology leads to realism about disputed entities, and to the view that metaphysical disputes about existence questions are misguided.

Fiction and Metaphysics
ISBN: 9780521065214 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This challenging study places fiction squarely at the center of the discussion of metaphysics. Philosophers have traditionally treated fiction as involving a set of narrow problems in logic or the philosophy of language. By contrast Amie Thomasson argues that fiction has far-reaching implications for central problems of metaphysics. The book develops an "artifactual" theory of fiction, whereby fictional characters are abstract artifacts as ordinary as laws or symphonies or works of literature. In taking seriously the work of literary scholars and in citing a wide range of literary examples,...

Ontology Made Easy
ISBN: 9780199385119 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the decades following Quine, debates about existence have taken center stage in the metaphysics. But neo-Quinean ontology has reached a crisis point, given the endless proliferation of positions and lack of any clear idea of how to resolve debates. The most prominent challenge to mainstream ontological debates has come from the idea that disputants can be seen as using the quantifier with different meanings, leaving the dispute merely verbal. Nearly all of the work in defense of hard ontology has gone into arguing against quantifier variance. This volume argues that hard ontology faces...

Phenomenology and Philosophy of Mind
ISBN: 9780199272440 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Philosophical work on the mind flowed in two streams through the 20th century: phenomenology and analytic philosophy. This volume aims to bring them together again, by demonstrating how work in phenomenology may lead to significant progress on problems central to current analytic research, and how analytical philosophy of mind may shed light on phenomenological concerns. Leading figures from both traditions contribute specially written essays on such central topics as consciousness, intentionality, perception, action, self-knowledge, temporal awareness, and mental content. Phenomenology and...

Fiction Et Metaphysique
ISBN: 9781904987987 / Francuski / Miękka / 2011 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Les philosophes ont souvent traite de la fiction comme d'un probleme collateral, dont l'interet est limite a la logique et la philosophie du langage. Ce livre affirme en revanche que la fiction joue un role central en metaphysique. En developpant une theorie - artefactuelle - de la fiction il aboutit ainsi a l'esquisse d'un nouveau systeme de categories, - multidimensionnel -. L'on comprend ainsi que les personnages fictionnels sont des artefacts abstraits, des entites tout aussi ordinaires que les lois, les symphonies ou les uvres litteraires: des entites dont l'existence depend, d'un cote,...
