24Can There Be Texts without Audiences? The Identity and Function of AudiencesReview of Metaphysics 47 (4). 1994.THE AUDIENCE IS THE REAL or imaginary group of persons who are in fact acquainted, could be acquainted, or are meant to be acquainted with a given text. Etymologically, the term "audience" refers to a group of listeners. This meaning of the term goes back to a time when the primary form of acquaintance with the work of an author was through the spoken word. From the invention of the printing press, however, until the time when the use of the radio became widespread, written texts were the primar…Read more

38Hispanics, Philosophy, and the CurriculumTeaching Philosophy 22 (3): 241-248. 1999.Despite predictions that Hispanics will soon outnumber all other minority groups combined in the United States, philosophy has remained indifferent to the growing Hispanic population. This paper offers several hypotheses why this is the case, arguing that Hispanics and Hispanic thought are perceived as unphilosophical (or only narrowly philosophical) and are thus perceived as ill-suited for academia and academic discussions in the United States. The author concludes by proposing strategies for o…Read more

446This article claims that communication within the same culture in the present and with the past and communication across cultures pose serious methodological challenges for philosophers. These challenges are particularly obvious when we engage in comparative philosophy between East and West. However, if (1) we understand philosophy as a discipline involved in problem solving, and (2) we use the Framework Approach advocated in this article, such communication does not seem impossible. Of course, …Read more

110Suárez and the doctrine of the transcendentalsTopoi 11 (2): 121-133. 1992.This article discusses Suárez''s views concerning the transcendentals, that is, being and those attributes of it that extend to everything.
