2La doctrine Leibnizienne de la vérité (review)Review of Metaphysics 56 (3): 672-672. 2003.Jean-Baptiste Rauzy writes here on Leibniz’s theory of truth, construed broadly, mostly in Leibniz’s earlier periods. He focuses mostly on Leibniz’s logical theory, particularly as given in the logical papers, published only with Couturat and others, in 1901 and following. Unlike a lot of the secondary literature, Rauzy’s book gives much detail about how Leibniz’s various logical models work out and apply to more general issues such as the reduction of relations, the ontological square, haecceit…Read more

2On Aristotle's On Interpretation 1-8 (review)Review of Metaphysics 50 (2): 384-385. 1996.This volume forms part of the translation series, The Ancient Commentators on Aristotle, with Richard Sorabji as General Editor. This series consists of English translations of parts of the Commentaria in Aristotelis Graeca. Like its companion volumes, the translation includes an introduction, the series introduction, and indices, including one from Greek to the English translations used. The book is well-produced with few typos, although I wonder a bit at not using the Greek font instead of Rom…Read more

10Imagination in Avicenna and KantTópicos: Revista de Filosofía 29 (1): 101-130. 2005.Al comparar la visión de Avicena y Kant sobre la imaginación, encontramos una sorprendente congruencia en sus doctrinas. Las doctrinas de Kant sobre la síntesis de la imaginación en su Deducción Trascendental tiene notables similitudes con la visión de Avicena. Tanto para Avicena como para Kant, la imaginación sirve para conectar lo fenoménico con lo nouménico. Al menos esta comparación tiene el doble uso de colocar las doctrinas de Kant en el contexto de la tradición aristotélica y de iluminar …Read more

10The Role of QualificationJournal of Philosophical Research 27 159-171. 2002.I give an analysis of the logical structure of statements describing duties in social roles. Role terms like ‘doctor’ should not be treated as simple predicates, as natural kind terms, like ‘human being’, are. When role terms are treated as simple predicates, fallacies may result. Rather, treat role terms (M) as complex predicates with a simple subject, a person (S), as a base; ‘S qua M’, and then analyze their reduplicative structure. I illustrate and support this analysis by considering sophis…Read more

63What is being qua being?Poznan Studies in the Philosophy of the Sciences and the Humanities 82 (1): 37-58. 2004.I offer truth conditions for propositions about being qua being in Aristotle's philosophy. I show that in general Aristotle views expressions of the form "qua S" in "S qua S is P" (or "S is P qua S") as making a claim not about the subject "S", but about the predication of "P" of "S". I develop necessary and sufficient truth conditions for propositions of the form "S qua S is P". Finally, I show how this analysis satisfactorily covers what Aristotle says about being qua being in the Metaphysics.
