Many philosophers suggest (1) that our emotional engagement with fiction involves participation in a game of make-believe,
and (2) that what distinguishes an emotional game from a dispassionate game is the fact that the former activity alone involves
sensations of physiological and visceral disturbances caused by our participation in the game. In this paper I argue that
philosophers who accept (1) should reject (2). I then illustrate how this conclusion illuminates various puzzles in aesthetics
and the philosophy of mind. 相似文献

This article argues in favour of an inferential role for fictions in scientific modelling. The argument proceeds by means of a detailed case study, namely models of the internal structure of stars in stellar astrophysics. The main assumptions in such models are described, and it is argued that they are best understood as useful fictions. The role that conditionals play in these models is explained, and it is argued that fictional assumptions play an important role as either background or antecedent conditions. I then expand on the argument for the compatibility of fictions and scientific realism. I argue that realism and antirealism plausibly offer correspondingly different accounts of the semantics of these fictional conditionals. 相似文献

This paper examines the logic of fictions within fictions. I argue that consistently nested consistent fictions must have
certain formal characteristics. The most important is that they form a tree structure. Depending on one’s theory of fictional
objects, additional constraints may apply regarding the appearance of a fictional object in two or more fictional universes.
The background motivation for the paper is to use iterated fiction operators as a tool for making sense of iterated modal
operators; I conclude by noting briefly where the results about nested fictions can, and where they cannot, be extended to
nested possible worlds. 相似文献

Fichte's most influential presentation of his Wissenschaftslehre, which coincides with his tenure at Jena, has, ironically, been subjected to incredulity, misunderstanding, and outright hostility. In a recent essay, noted scholar Daniel Breazeale has undertaken to challenge this history of neglect and misunderstanding by pointing to the significance of striking passages from Fichte's writings in which he asserts that his philosophical system is fictional. At the same time, Breazeale also notes some of the tensions between this fictionalist reading of the Jena Wissenschaftslehre and Fichte's equally forceful insistence on the reality of his system. In this essay, I argue that these two sides of Fichte's conception of his philosophy can, in fact, be reconciled by looking more carefully at distinctions that Fichte himself draws between realities, philosophical fictions, and mere fabrications. What results is a clearer picture of Fichte's conception of transcendental philosophy that builds upon Breazeale's valuable insights. 相似文献

This paper examines internal objects in their role as theoretical constructs which analysts use to make sense of human experience. Object relations theory is based upon a vision that the personality is divided or split into parts. Clinical experience reveals that such splits are commonly expressed in the language of our analysing. However, a lexical reality is not a thing-in-itself, but a way of organizing and understanding experience. Jung's vision of the dynamics of the split self encompass a unique 'object relations theory' that is both similar and yet quite different from the object relations theories of Klein, Fairbairn, Winnicott and Thomas Ogden A clinical example is used to examine the way in which these different theoretical views explain the same clinical phenomenon. The last section of the paper is devoted to a narrational analysis of the place of internal objects in analytic theory. The split self, dynamic is seen as a narrative device - one that makes sense and provides coherence, but is neither the only view of psychic reality nor necessarily an accurate reflection of the nature of the internal world. 相似文献

An empty fiction is a fiction with no content—that is, a fiction in which no propositions are (fictionally) true. The central question of this article is, are such fictions possible? Here, I argue that they are. More specifically, after first examining and rejecting five potential arguments for the possibility of empty fictions, I go on to develop a more successful argument. Along the way, I introduce a new method for producing fictions via complementation functions. 相似文献

Abstract Philosophers have traditionally used thought-experiments in their endeavours to find a satisfactory account of the self and personal identity. Yet there are considerations from empirical psychology as well as related ones from philosophy itself that appear to completely undermine the method of thought-experiment. This paper focuses on both sets of considerations and attempts a defence of the method. 相似文献

自1818年著名英国诗人雪莱的妻子、二十岁的玛丽·雪莱发表了一部题为《弗兰肯斯坦》的小说以来,科学幻想小说走过了近二百年的历史。其间涌现出无数优秀作品,涉及的题材无所不包。一般认为,西方的科幻小说基本上可以分成以下四类主题: 相似文献
