Despite its apparent ubiquity, philosophers have not talked much about sentimental value. One exception is Anthony Hatzimoysis
(The Philosophical Quarterly 53:373–379, 2003). Those who wish to take sentimental value seriously are likely to make use of Christine Korsgaard’s ideas on two distinctions
in value. In this paper I show that Hatzimoysis has misrendered Korsgaard’s insight in his discussion of sentimental value.
I begin by briefly summarising Korsgaard’s idea before showing how Hatzimoysis’ treatment of it is mistaken.

Markus Werning attempts to refute Quine’s thesis that meaning is indeterminate. To this purpose he employs Hodges’ theorem
about extensions of cofinal meaning functions. But the theorem does neither suffice to solve Quine’s problem nor the problem
Werning mistakenly identifies with Quine’s. Nevertheless it makes sense to employ the methods used in Werning’s paper with
regard to Quine’s thesis, only that they tell in favour of the thesis instead of against it.

Shannon Vallor 《Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences》2009,8(1):1-15
Dennett’s recent defense in this journal of the heterophenomenological method and its supposed advantages over Husserlian
phenomenology is premised on his problematic account of the epistemological and ontological status of phenomenological states.
By employing Husserl’s philosophy of science to clarify the relationship between phenomenology and evidence and the implications
of this relationship for the empirical identification of ‘real’ conscious states, I argue that the naturalistic account of
consciousness Dennett hopes for could be authoritative as a science only by virtue of the very phenomenological evidences
Dennett’s method consigns to the realm of fiction. Thus heterophenomenology, qua scientific method, is incoherent.

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.

A review of Peter Steele’s Plenty, a book in which each poem is faced by a colour plate of the painting or object which sparked it off. Hollander’s ecphrasis
and Krieger’s ekphrasis are held in – possibly unresolvable – dialectic by Steele’s poems. The only resolution which one can
find is one of wit rather than of philosophy.

This article responds to the question of the ‘implicit and presupposed theological turn of phenomenology’ by providing a close
reading of Jacques Derrida’s Le Toucher—Jean-Luc Nancy (2000 French/2005 English translation), particularly concerning what Derrida alludes to as ‘the Christian thinking of the
flesh’ in the French phenomenological tradition post-Husserl. In reading Derrida’s own text, the article identifies and then
performs a ‘cryptonomy’ of references to the ‘Christian body,’ and of the ‘return of religion.’ The article also focuses on
the more recent writings of Jean-Luc Nancy, especially Corpus (2000 French), concerning the body and its relationship to the concept of corporality (Leiblichkeit) from Husserl’s Ideas II.

Daphna Erdinast-Vulcan 《Continental Philosophy Review》2008,41(1):43-58
The essay draws on a little-known fragment from M.M. Bakhtin’s Draft Exercise Notebooks of 1943 to highlight both the affinities
and the divergences of the respective philosophical projects of Bakhtin and Emmanuel Levinas. The first part of the discussion
follows their parallel itineraries through several points of convergence, from a sense of profound philosophical disenchantment
to a conception of the ethical subject as living on borderlines, facing the other, irremediably vulnerable and infinitely
responsible. The second part focuses on the “dialogic impasse” and its attempted resolution through gestures of triangulation,
evidenced in Levinas’s “third” and Bakhtin’s “superaddresee.” The third part of the discussion, beginning with Bakhtin’s and
Levinas’s different readings of Dostoevsky, focuses on the ultimate divergence of their philosophical positions, and suggests
that Bakhtin’s discursive conception of subjectivity may point the direction towards a more viable thinking of a post-metaphysical
ethics.

Scott Hill 《Argumentation》2009,23(2):277-283
Toomas Karmo claims that his taxonomy of ethical sentences has the result that there does not exist a sound argument with
all non-ethical premises and an ethical conclusion. In a recent paper, Mark T. Nelson argues against this claim. Nelson presents
a sound argument that he takes to be such that (i) Karmo’s taxonomy classifies that argument’s single premise as non-ethical
and (ii) Karmo’s taxonomy classifies that argument’s conclusion as ethical. I attempt to show that Nelson is mistaken about
(ii). For any possible world at which the premise of Nelson’s argument is true, Karmo’s taxonomy classifies the conclusion
of Nelson’s argument as non-ethical.

The article rebutts Michael Kremer’s contention that Russell’s contextual definition of set-theoretic language in Principia
Mathematica constituted the ontological achievement of eliminating commitment to classes. Although Russell’s higher-order
quantifiers, used in the definition, need not range over classes, none of the plausible substitutes provide a solid basis
for eliminating them. This point is used to defend the presentation, in The Dawn of Analysis, of Russell’s logicist reduction,
using a first-order version of naive set theory.

I argue that Merleau-Ponty’s use of the case of Schneider in his arguments for the existence of non-conconceptual and non-representational
motor intentionality contains a problematic methodological ambiguity. Motor intentionality is both to be revealed by its perspicuous
preservation and by its contrastive impairment in one and the same case. To resolve the resulting contradiction I suggest
we emphasize the second of Merleau-Ponty’s two lines of argument. I argue that this interpretation is the one in best accordance
both with Merleau-Ponty’s general methodology and with the empirical case of Schneider as it was described by Gelb and Goldstein.

We have two aims in this paper. The first is negative: to demonstrate the problems in Bernard Gert’s account of common morality,
in particular as it applies to professional morality. The second is positive: to suggest a more satisfactory explanation of
the moral basis of professional role morality, albeit one that is broadly consistent with Gert’s notion of common morality,
but corrects and supplements Gert’s theory. The paper is in three sections. In the first, we sketch the main features of Gert’s
account of common morality in general. In the second, we outline Gert’s explanation of the source of professional moral rules
and demonstrate its inadequacy. In the third section, we provide an account of our own collectivist needs-based view of the
source of the role-moral obligations of many professional roles, including those of health care professionals.

My purpose in this paper is to look at Cassirer’s relation to critical philosophy from a new perspective. Most discussions
concerning Cassirer’s Kantianism have so far centered on his relation to neo-Kantianism and the Marburg school. My focus will
not be on neo-Kantianism but on Cassirer’s notion of a “critique of culture.” In an often cited paragraph from the introduction
to The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms, Cassirer says that his aim is to broaden Kant’s critical approach to all various forms of culture, to language as well as
myth and art, and thus to transform the “critique of reason” into the “critique of culture.” I will explore Cassirer’s concept
of the “critique of culture” and suggest that it can best be understood by placing it in the context of early twentieth century
German philosophy. More precisely, I will aim to show that Cassirer’s critique can be seen as an effort to find a middle path
between Lebensphilosophie and the positivism of the Vienna Circle. 相似文献

Wesley Salmon and John Earman have presented influential Bayesian reconstructions of Thomas Kuhn’s account of theory-change.
In this paper I argue that all attempts to give a Bayesian reading of Kuhn’s philosophy of science are fundamentally misguided
due to the fact that Bayesian confirmation theory is in fact inconsistent with Kuhn’s account. The reasons for this inconsistency
are traced to the role the concept of incommensurability plays with reference to the ‘observational vocabulary’ within Kuhn’s
picture of scientific theories. The upshot of the discussion is that it is impossible to integrate both Kuhn’s claims and
Bayesianism within a coherent account of theory-change.

In this article the author discusses the differences between pastoral care and psycho-social therapy. She clarifies the specific identity of pastoral care on the basis of Henning Luther’s theology. He distinguishes different anthropological presuppositions in pastoral care and psycho-social therapy. Consequently, she demonstrates the relevancy of Luther’s theology for today’s Practical Theology.

Those familiar with contemporary continental philosophy know well the defenses Husserlians have offered of Husserl’s theory
of inner time-consciousness against post-modernism’s deconstructive criticisms. As post-modernism gives way to Deleuzean post-structuralism,
Deleuze’s Le bergsonisme has grown into the movement of Bergsonism. This movement, designed to present an alternative to phenomenology, challenges
Husserlian phenomenology by criticizing the most “important… of all phenomenological problems.” Arguing that Husserl’s theory
of time-consciousness detailed a linear succession of iterable instants in which the now internal to consciousness receives
prejudicial favor, Bergsonism concludes that Husserl derived the past from the present and cannot account for the sense of
the past, which differs in kind from the present. Consequently, everything on Husserl’s account remains present and his theory
cannot accommodate for time’s passage. In this paper, I renew the Husserlian defense of Husserl’s theory of time-consciousness
in response to the recent movement of Deleuzean Bergsonism. Section one presents Bergsonism’s notion of the past in general
and its critique of Husserl’s theory of time-consciousness. Section two presents a rejoinder to Bergsonism’s critique of Husserl,
questioning (1) its understanding of the living-present as linearly extended, (2) its conflation of the living-present with
Husserl’s early schema-apprehension interpretation, and (3) its failure to grasp Husserl’s revised understanding of primary
memory as a result of (2). In conclusion, I suggest that Husserl’s theory of retention might articulate a notion of the past
more consistent with Bergson than Bergsonism itself.

According to Field’s influential incompleteness objection, Tarski’s semantic theory of truth is unsatisfactory since the definition
that forms its basis is incomplete in two distinct senses: (1) it is physicalistically inadequate, and for this reason, (2)
it is conceptually deficient. In this paper, I defend the semantic theory of truth against the incompleteness objection by
conceding (1) but rejecting (2). After arguing that Davidson and McDowell’s reply to the incompleteness objection fails to
pass muster, I argue that, within the constraints of a non-reductive physicalism and a holism concerning the concepts of truth,
reference and meaning, conceding Field’s physicalistic inadequacy conclusion while rejecting his conceptual deficiency conclusion
is a promising reply to the incompleteness objection.
