Hume on Causation
ISBN: 9780415243391 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) Hume is traditionally credited with inventing the 'regularity theory' of causation, according to which the causal relation between two events consists merely in the fact that events of the first kind are always followed by events of the second kind. Hume is also traditionally credited with two other, hugely influential positions: the view that the world appears to us as a world of unconnected events, and inductive scepticism: the view that the 'problem of induction', the problem of providing a justification for inference from observed to unobserved regularities, is insoluble. ...Hume is traditionally credited with inventing the 'regularity theory' of causation, according to which the causal relation between two events consi... |

Truthmakers: The Contemporary Debate
ISBN: 9780199283569 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) The concept of truthmaking is attracting much attention in contemporary metaphysics. Helen Beebee and Julian Dodd have assembled a distinguished team to contribute brand new essays on the topic: they ask, among other things, how the truthmaker principle should be formulated, whether it is well motivated, whether it genuinely has the explanatory roles claimed for it, and whether more modest principles might serve just as well. This volume will be the starting point for future discussion and research.

The Semantics and Metaphysics of Natural Kinds
ISBN: 9780415516952 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 241 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) Essentialism--roughly, the view that natural kinds have discrete essences, generating truths that are necessary but knowable only a posteriori--is an increasingly popular view in the metaphysics of science. At the same time, philosophers of language have been subjecting Kripke's views about the existence and scope of the necessary a posteriori to rigorous analysis and criticism. Essentialists typically appeal to Kripkean semantics to motivate their radical extension of the realm of the necessary a posteriori; but they rarely attempt to provide any semantic arguments for this extension, or...

Citation and Precedent: Conjunctions and Disjunctions of German Law and Literature
ISBN: 9781628921243 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Among Western literatures, only the German-speaking countries can boast a list of world-class writers such as Goethe, Hoffmann, Kleist, Kafka, Schmitt, and Schlink who were trained as legal scholars. Yet this list only hints at the complex interactions between German law and literature. It can be supplemented, for example, with the unique interventions of the legal system into literature, ranging from attempts to save literature from the tidal wave of Schund (pulp fiction) in the early twentieth century to audiences suing theaters over the improper production of classics in the...

Millennial Literatures of the Americas, 1492-2002
ISBN: 9780195339383 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) This bracing and far-ranging study compares modern (post-1492) literary treatments of millenarian narratives--"end of the world" stories charting an ultimate battle between good and evil that destroys previous social structures and rings in a lasting new order. While present in many cultures for as long as tales have been told, these accounts take on a profound dramatic resonance in the context of Europe's centuries-long colonization of the American hemisphere. With an impressive interdisciplinary approach that employs insights from history, ethnography, and theology, Thomas O. Beebee...
