  • Generic Statements and Antirealism
    GENERIC STATEMENTS AND ANTIREALISM Panayot BUTCHVAROV ABSTRACT: The standard arguments for antirealism are densely abstract, often enigmatic, and thus unpersuasive. The ubiquity and irreducibility of what linguists call generic statements provides a clear argument from a specific and readily understandable case. We think and talk about the world as necessarily subject to generalization. But the chief vehicles of generalization are generic statements, typically of the form “Fs are G,” not universal statements, typically of the form “All Fs are G.” Universal statements themselves are usually intended and understood as though they were only generic. Even if there are universal facts, as Russell held, there are no generic facts. There is no genericity in the world as it is “in-itself.” There is genericity in it only as it is “for-us.” KEYWORDS: Generic, General, Antirealism I shall take general statements to include those that logicians call universal, typically of the form “All Fs are G,” and particular, of the form “Some Fs are G,” but also those that linguists call generic, typically of the form “Fs are G.” The term ‘realism’ will be used for the metaphysical view that reality, the ‘world,’ is mind- independent, in particular, independent of our knowledge of it. ‘Antirealism’ will stand for the opposite view, including Kant’s transcendental idealism as well as recent positions such as Michael Dummett’s ‘antirealism,’ Nelson Goodman’s ‘irrealism,’ and Hilary Putnam’s ‘internal realism.’ According to antirealism, reality depends, insofar as it is known or knowable, on our ways of knowing it, our cognitive capacities – sense perception, introspection, intellectual intuition, imagination, memory, recognition, conceptualization, inductive and deductive reasoning, use of language and other symbolism.

  • Counterfactuals and Antirealism
    ISSN 2664-4002 (Print) & ISSN 2664-6714 (Online) South Asian Research Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences Abbreviated Key Title: South Asian Res J Human Soc Sci | Volume-1 | Issue-1| Jun-Jul -2019 | Short Communication Counterfactuals and Antirealism Panayot Butchvarov* The University of Iowa USA *Corresponding Author Panayot Butchvarov Article History Received: 12.07.2019 Accepted: 24.07.2019 Published: 30.07.2019 Abstract: There could be no causal connections in the world because if there were there would be counterfactual facts, and there are no such facts. Cognition of the world must employ counterfactual statements, roughly of the form “If p were true, then q would be true,” but obviously there are no counterfactual facts. Keywords: cognition, antirealism, causality, counterfactual The ways to antirealism Metaphysical antirealism is seemingly incredible but, paradoxically, also self-evident. It seems self-evident insofar as it says that if there is a world that we do not and cannot cognize (Kant‟s “things-in-themselves”) then we can ignore it, and if there is a world that we do or at least can cognize (Kant‟s “things-for-us”) then it can only be the world as we do or can cognize it. So the world we do cognize seems, in a sense, dependent on our cognition of it. (We may think of cognition as the capacity for knowledge, and of knowledge as the successful exercise of that capacity.) Metaphysical antirealism is not solipsistic – it‟s about what we, not what I, do or can cognize. For cognition of a world, unlike cognition of a toothache but like cognition of physics, mathematics, geography, or history, is inseparable from others‟ cognition – from the common language we speak to most of the views we espouse.

  • The Practical Turn' David G
    8 The Practical Turn' David G. Stern What is Practice Theory? What is a Practice? What is "practice theory"? The best short answer is that it is any theory that treats practice as a fundamental category, or takes practices as its point of departure . Naturally, this answer leads to further questions . What is meant by "practices" here? What is involved in taking practices as a point of departure or a fundamental category, and what does that commitment amount to? And what is the point of the contrast between a practice-based theory and one that starts elsewhere? Perhaps the most significant point of agreement among those who have taken the practical turn is that it offers a way out of Procustean yet seemingly inescap- able categories, such as subject and object, representation and represented, con- ceptual scheme and content, belief and desire, structure and action, rules and their application, micro and macro, individual and totality . Instead, practice the- orists propose that we start with practices and rethink our theories from the ground up. Bourdieu, for instance, insists that only a theory of practice can open up a way forward : Objective analysis of practical apprehension of the familiar world . teaches us that we shall escape from the ritual either/or choice between objectivism and subjectiv- ism in which the social sciences have so far allowed themselves to be trapped only if we are prepared to inquire into the mode of production and functioning of the practical mastery which makes possible both an objectively intelligible practice and also an objectively enchanted experience of that practice .

I would also like to express my gratitude to the professors of these departments who made themselves and their expertise abundantly available. Their mentoring and guidance proved invaluable and have shaped my approach to solving the problems of the past. I am an immensely better thinker and teacher through their efforts. I would also like to express my appreciation to my committee, whose diligence and attention made this project possible. I will be forever in their debt for the time they committed to reading and discussing my work. I would particularly like to thank my chair, David Potter, who has acted as a mentor and guide throughout my time at Michigan and has had the greatest role in making me the scholar that I am today.

  • The Manipulation of Words of Sounds and Rumours in Julius Caesar's
    AYELET PEER, Hear No Evil? The Manipulation of Words of Sounds and Rumours in Julius Caesar’s Commentaries, in: Annemarie Ambühl (ed.), Krieg der Sinne – Die Sinne im Krieg. Kriegsdarstellungen im Spannungsfeld zwischen antiker und moderner Kultur / War of the Senses – The Senses in War. Interactions and Tensions Between Representations of War in Classical and Modern Culture = thersites 4 (2016), 43-76. KEYWORDS Julius Caesar, Commentarii, Bellum Gallicum, Bellum Civile, Sound, Battle Descriptions ABSTRACT (English) In recent years, we have witnessed how scholars have re-read and re- examined Caesar’s commentaries on the Gallic and Civil wars, focusing more on the works’ literary merits. In this contribution to the discussion I aim to show how Caesar deploys the motif of hearing to develop his narrative of battle description. Therefore I single out specific words denoting sound such as shouting (clamor), voices (vox), and also the use of rumours (rumor, fama). Caesar probably wished to give his audience a fuller, engaging portrayal of the battlefield, along with its dangers and terrors, so that we, his readers, are able not only to see through the general’s eyes, but also to hear the sounds of war. Sounds are thus significant in conveying the tense atmosphere of war, especially since soldiers are naturally frightened by what they cannot see, but only hear. Yet in this chaos of shouts and voices Caesar would have us remember that only one voice can ease the fears of the soldiers and restore order: the voice of the commander, imperator Caesar. ABSTRACT (German) In den letzten Jahren hat die Forschung Caesars Commentarii zum Gallischen Krieg und zum Bürgerkrieg neu untersucht und den Schwerpunkt vermehrt auf die literarischen Verdienste der Werke gelegt.

In the case of a court speech ( genus iudiciale ), the aim will be to convince the judges of the defendant’s guilt (in the case of accusatio ) or innocence (in the case of defensio ). In an advisory speech ( deliberativum ), the politician deliv- ering his text will try to persuade the audience (the senate or a popular as- sembly) to vote for ( suasio ) or against ( dissuasio ) the motion submitted. The situation will be similar in the case of the third type of speech—epideictic (demonstrativum ). In the present article I will analyze fragments of two texts of different provenance, representing different kinds of oration ( dissuasio and defensio ). It is somewhat difficult to locate them chronologically, since on the one hand we are dealing with a speech delivered in a specific historical setting, and on the other—with a literary genre involving a fictitious speech (sermocinatio ) in place of an oration confirmed by sources. The aim of the article is to show the way of using the artistic argument 1 in descriptions of AGNIESZKA DZIUBA , PhD, Dsc, Assoc.

Ralph Weber Published online: 15 April 2014 # Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014 Abstract Comparison is fundamental to the practice and subject-matter of philosophy, but has received scant attention by philosophers. This is even so in “comparative philosophy,” which literally distinguishes itself from other philosophy by being “com- parative.” In this article, the need for a philosophy of comparison is suggested. What we compare with what, and in what respect it is done, poses a series of intriguing and intricate questions. In Part One, I offer a problematization of the tertium comparationis (the third of comparison) by examining conceptualizations of similarity, family resem- blance, and analogy, which it is sometimes argued can do without a tertium comparationis. In Part Two, I argue that a third of comparison is already required to determine what is to be compared, and insofar as that determination precedes the comparison that tertium may be called “pre-comparative.” This leads me to argue against incomparability and to show how anything can indeed be compared to any- thing. In Part Three, I relate my arguments to what is today commonly labelled “comparative philosophy.” Finally, I raise some questions of ontology and politics in order to demonstrate the relevance of a philosophy of comparison. Keywords Comparative philosophy. Intercultural philosophy. Tertium comparationis . Analogy. Family resemblance 1 Introduction It is very ordinary for us to engage in comparisons of all sorts.
