Anna Mudde 《Human Studies》2009,32(2):183-200
In this paper, I draw on the mutually implicated structures of tragedy and self-formation found in Hegel’s use of Sophocles’
Antigone in the Phenomenology. By emphasizing the apparent distinction between particular and universal in Hegel’s reading of the tragedies in Antigone, I propose that a tragedy of action (which particularizes a universal) is inescapable for subjectivity understood as socially
constituted and always already socially engaged. I consider universal/particular relations in three communities: Hegel’s Greek
polis, his community of conscience, and my reading of certain feminist communities. The position I propose establishes a ground
from which to approach subjects, and implies that all subjects may be understood as the result of relations embodying potential
tragedy. This speaks to contemporary concerns about marginalization, identity articulation, and relations of recognition.

Raimond Gaita’s work in moral philosophy is unusual and important in focusing on the concept of sainthood. Drawing partly
on the work of George Orwell, and partly on the life and work of Simone Weil, as well as on further material, I argue that
Gaita’s use of this notion to help make sense of the concept of human preciousness is unconvincing, not least because he does
not properly explore the figure and psychology of the saint in any detail. I relatedly argue that the notion of human preciousness
in question is implausible and, in some ways, sentimental. I also explore Gaita’s concept of “speaking personally” in moral
philosophy, and suggest that matters here are a great deal more complicated than he supposes.

Minimal entities are, roughly, those that fall under notions defined by only deflationary principles. In this paper I provide
an accurate characterization of two types of minimal entities: minimal properties and minimal facts. This characterization
is inspired by both Schiffer’s notion of a pleonastic entity and Horwich’s notion of minimal truth. I argue that we are committed
to the existence of minimal properties and minimal facts according to a deflationary notion of existence, and that the appeal
to the inferential role reading of the quantifiers does not dismiss this commitment. I also argue that deflationary existence
is language-dependent existence—this clarifies why minimalists about properties and facts are not realists about these entities
though their language may appear indistinguishable from the language of realists.

Respect and Membership in the Moral Community 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Carla Bagnoli 《Ethical Theory and Moral Practice》2007,10(2):113-128
Some philosophers object that Kant’s respect cannot express mutual recognition because it is an attitude owed to persons in
virtue of an abstract notion of autonomy and invite us to integrate the vocabulary of respect with other persons-concepts
or to replace it with a social conception of recognition. This paper argues for a dialogical interpretation of respect as
the key-mode of recognition of membership in the moral community. This interpretation highlights the relational and practical
nature of respect, and accounts for its governing role over other persons-regarding concepts.

Quine’s criticism of the notion of analyticity applies, at best, to Carnap’s notion, not to those of Frege or Husserl. The
failure of logicism is also the failure of Frege’s definition of analyticity, but it does not even touch Husserl’s views,
which are based on logical form. However, some relatively concrete number-theoretic statements do not admit such a formalization
salva veritate. A new definition of analyticity based not on syntactical but on semantical logical form is proposed and argued for.

It is widely believed that the so-called knowledge account of assertion best explains why sentences such as “It’s raining
in Paris but I don’t believe it” and “It’s raining in Paris but I don’t know it” appear odd to us. I argue that the rival
rational credibility account of assertion explains that fact just as well. I do so by providing a broadly Bayesian analysis
of the said type of sentences which shows that such sentences cannot express rationally held beliefs. As an interesting aside,
it will be seen that these sentences also harbor a lesson for Bayesian epistemology itself.

Kant’s reputation for making absolutist claims about universal and necessary conditions for the possibility of experience
are put here in the broader context of his goals for the Critical philosophy. It is shown that within that context, Kant’s
claims can be seen as considerably more innocuous than they are traditionally regarded, underscoring his deep respect for
“common sense” and sharing surprisingly similar goals with Wittgenstein in terms of what philosophy can, and at least as importantly
cannot, provide.

Supernatural Miracles and Religious Inclusiveness 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Morgan Luck 《Sophia》2007,46(3):287-293
In this paper I shall assess Clarke’s assertion that all definitions of miracles that purport to satisfy the criterion of
religious inclusiveness should substitute the term ‘supernatural’ for ‘non-natural’. In addition, I shall attempt to strengthen
Clarke’s conception of the supernatural by offering an analysis of what it means for something to be ‘above’ nature. Lastly,
I shall offer a new argument as to why Clarke’s intention-based definition of miracles is necessarily less religiously inclusive
than Mumford’s causation-based definition.

Age-related trends and predictors were explored with respect to three dimensions of adults’ body consciousness. Consistent
with the notion that aging adults’ perceptions of their bodies are multidimensional and multidirectional, adults reported
being more concerned about their external physical appearance (public body consciousness), more aware of their internal body
sensations (private body consciousness), and more positive in their self-evaluations of their bodies (body competence). Moreover,
consistent with the claim that such attitudes are multi-determined, the present research found that aging adults’ personal
anxiety about aging and their subjective age identities were significant predictors of variations in their body consciousness.
Moreover, the predictive value of these psychological variables rivaled the predictive value of chronological age.

This essay will build on Emmanuel Levinas’s rejection of ontology as foundational and draw out the implications for psychotherapy.
We will explore Levinas’s concept of substitution (in both his more Jewish writings and his philosophical treatises) and consider
its meaning in relationship to the role of a psychotherapist. Levinas understands the Other as a calling for substitution
of the self and of a taking on of responsibility. We explore the notion of surrender in the work of the psychoanalyst Emmanuel
Ghent and argue that his position is ultimately lacking in ethical injunction; requiring nothing of the self in relationship
to the Other. It remains within the confines of the conventional, self-reflexive models that Levinas critiques. Following
Levinas, we suggest that the therapist bear the burden of ethical responsibility by being exposed to the client’s ethical
call and by responding out of a kenotic self-emptying.

This paper argues that a priori justification is, in principle, compatible with naturalism—if the a priori is understood in
a way that is free of the inessential properties that, historically, have been associated with the concept. I argue that empirical
indefeasibility is essential to the primary notion of the a priori; however, the indefeasibility requirement should be interpreted
in such a way that we can be fallibilist about apriori-justified claims. This fallibilist notion of the a priori accords with
the naturalist’s commitment to scientific methodology in that it allows for apriori-justified claims to be sensitive to further
conceptual developments and the expansion of evidence. The fallibilist apriorist allows that an a priori claim is revisable
in only a purely epistemic sense. This modal claim is weaker than what is required for a revisability thesis to establish
empiricism, so fallibilist apriorism represents a distinct position.

How Berkeley Corrupted His Capacity to Conceive 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Michael Jacovides 《Philosophia》2009,37(3):415-429
Berkeley’s capacity to conceive of mind-independent bodies was corrupted by his theory of representation. He thought that
representation of things outside the mind depended on resemblance. Since ideas can resemble nothing than ideas, and all ideas
are mind dependent, he concluded that we couldn’t form ideas of mind-independent bodies. More generally, he thought that we
had no inner resembling proxies for mind-independent bodies, and so we couldn’t even form a notion of such things. Because
conception is a suggestible faculty, Berkeley’s arguments actually made it the case that he himself couldn’t conceive of mind-independent
bodies.

This article emphasizes an underappreciated aspect of Freud’s critique of religion taken up in the writings of Ricoeur and
Castoriadis: the degree to which pathologies of desire and duty imbue our relation to shared cultural forms, i.e., narratives,
ideals, and values. Both thinkers find in Freud’s anti-religious polemic a valuable attempt to address the intransigence,
fanaticism, and violence that can result from an unreflected affirmation of Tradition. Alongside developing a respect and
acceptance of other cultures, they argue for the need to establish a critical relation to ‘sacred’meaning structures, one
that mirrors interpretive strategies within the psychoanalytic process. Ricoeur and Castoriadis critique Freud’s accentuation
of neurosis while extending his thinking into personal-philosophical and social-political contexts.

This paper argues for an alternative notion of spirituality for education, based on Theo de Boer’s idea of a spirituality
of the desert. Rather than depicting an inner, additional region named the spiritual, spirituality here is thought of as a
discourse that depicts the everyday world in a particular way. In dialogue with David Purpel’s analysis, the paper argues
for a notion of spirituality that is located in an ongoing oscillation between ‘the individual’ and ‘the community.’ This
oscillation turns out to be the call of justice. This analysis helps understand classroom dynamics differently, providing
a place of critique for current practices.

The abductivist reply to skepticism is the view that commonsense explanations of the patterns and regularities that appear
in our sensory experiences should be rationally preferred to skeptical explanations of those same patterns and regularities
on the basis of explanatory considerations. In this article I critically examine Laurence BonJour’s rationalist version of
the abductivist position. After explaining why BonJour’s account is more defensible than other versions of the view, I argue
that the notion of probability he relies upon is deeply problematic, that he incorporates an implausible double-standard concerning
a priori and a posteriori justification, and that his view is vulnerable to skepticism about the a priori. I suggest that
some of these problems are due to idiosyncratic commitments BonJour makes and that abductivists would be better off without
them. I conclude with some suggestions about how to improve BonJour’s abductivist response to skepticism.

This article studies the phenomenology of chronic illness in light of phenomenology’s insights into ecstatic temporality and
freedom. It shows how a chronic illness can, in lived experience, manifest itself as a disturbance of our usual relation to
ecstatic temporality and thence as a disturbance of freedom. This suggests that ecstatic temporality is related to another
sort of time—“provisional time”—that is in turn rooted in the body. The article draws on Merleau-Ponty’s Phenomenology of Perception and Heidegger’s Being and Time, shedding light on the latter’s concept of ecstatic temporality. It also discusses implications for self-management of chronic
illness, especially in children.

The question of the extent of the interconnection, if any, between religion and the Western culture of biomedicine has received
considerable scholarly attention over the past several decades. However, any phenomenological analysis that begins by positing
an essence of religion is, if not doomed, deeply flawed from the outset. This paper employs William Alston’s non-essentialist
notion of ‘religion-making characteristics’ to assess the extent of the interconnection. The conclusion is that the culture
of biomedicine does share many, if not all of these characteristics, and that both religion and medicine overlap in significant
ways on, to use Erwin Goodenough’s metaphor, the painted curtain that separates man from the tremendum.
