39Lógica e Ontologia: O confronto entre Bertrand Russell e Hugh MacColl acerca dos Objectos InexistentesRevista Portuguesa de Filosofia 63 (1/3). 2007.Ponto de partida do presente artigo é uma interrogação acerca do significado existencial das proposições. Em primeiro lugar, é considerada a ideia de existência simbólica na lógica de MacColl, ao mesmo tempo que se assinalam os problemas que, na perspectiva de Bertrand Russell, estão associados com a auta-referência e o significado da classe-nula. Por outro lado, o artigo demonstra também até que ponto a própria perspectiva de Russell não está livre de problemas, de ambiguidades e de mudanças de…Read more

33Resemblance, Exemplification, and OntologyAmerican Philosophical Quarterly 55 (2): 131-140. 2018.According to the quantificational Quinean model in meta-ontology, the question of ontology boils down to the question of whether a sortal property is exemplified. I address some complications that arise when we try to build a philosophical reconstruction of the link between individuals and kinds displayed in the exemplification relation from the point of view of conceptualism about kinds and having in mind this stand in ontology. I distinguish two notions of resemblance, object-to- object and ob…Read more

25A Proposed Taxonomy of Realism in Conceptual FrameworksEuropean Journal of Pragmatism and American Philosophy 13 (1). 2021.One of the complications of a clear evaluation of different positions called “realism” in metaphysics and ontology is discrepancy in terminology and variance of basic intuitions inherent this notion. I recommend a taxonomy that distinguishes three kinds of variance: variance in the sets of conditions for a philosophical position to be acknowledged as actual realism, variance in strength and variance in conceptual frameworks. Within this last case, I propose to differentiate realism in epistemolo…Read more

14Ontological Categorizations and Selection Biases in Cosmology: The Case of Extra Galactic ObjectsFoundations of Science 26 (3): 515-529. 2020.One of the innovative approaches in contemporary philosophical ontology consists in the assumption of a plurality of ontologies based on different metaphysical presuppositions. Such presuppositions involve, among others, the identification of relevant properties for the objects of our domain as a guiding principle in uncovering what it is to be considered intrinsic and what could be the mere effect of selection preferences based on objective or subjective criteria. A remarkable example of the ap…Read more
