Reid in Europe
REID IN EUROPE DANIEL SarutTHESS For several decades, Thomas Reid enjoyed a wide readership in Continental Europe, and his works contributed much to shape its philosophical ways.1 This is true for Cennany, as Manfred Kuehn has shown in his extended study Swttish Common Sense in Germany, 1768-1800: A Contribution to the History aJCritical Philosophy.2 It is true also for France, although at a somewhat Iater time. The local adaptations of the Scottish doctrines in France were corn.mon to a degree that very few suspect today. In his classical paper "De l'influence c;le la philosophie écossaise sur la philosophie français'13, Emile Boutroux unëletlined that in France in the 1870s, Scottish doctrines stiI1 dominated the teaching of philosophy at the pre-university level (p.441). Theywere central to the philosophical climate during practically the whole 19th century. There is a link of some interest between the German and the French reception of Reid in the persan of Pierre Prevost (1751-1839), a philosopher and scientist from Geneva. Prevost stayed in Berlin in the 1780s before returning to Geneva ta teach a philosaphy clearly permeated by Scottish doctrines. I have found some new material on Prevost which has been published recently, but this will not i be my tapie in this paper.4 ~-/~,~. Germany and France are not the whole of Europe and the title of t:his paper may thus appear ambitious, net to say scandalous, to some readers. But in fact, ~~PL given that Scottish doctrines were more popular in Franœ than anywhere el.se on the Continent, and thatitwas largely France that contributed ta making them known elsewhere, I shall concentrate on that country. -

Metaphysics Today and Tomorrow*
1 Metaphysics Today and Tomorrow* Raphaël Millière École normale supérieure, Paris – October 2011 Translated by Mark Ohm with the assistance of Leah Orth, Jon Cogburn, and Emily Beck Cogburn “By metaphysics, I do not mean those abstract considerations of certain imaginary properties, the principal use of which is to furnish the wherewithal for endless dispute to those who want to dispute. By this science I mean the general truths which can serve as principles for the particular sciences.” Malebranche Dialogues on Metaphysics and Religion 1. The interminable agony of metaphysics Throughout the twentieth century, numerous philosophers sounded the death knell of metaphysics. Ludwig Wittgenstein, Rudolf Carnap, Martin Heidegger, Gilbert Ryle, J. L. Austin, Jacques Derrida, Jürgen Habermas, Richard Rorty, and, henceforth, Hilary Putnam: a great many tutelary figures have extolled the rejection, the exceeding, the elimination, or the deconstruction of first philosophy. All these necrological chronicles do not have the same radiance, the same seriousness, nor the same motivations, but they all agree to dismiss the discipline, which in the past was considered “the queen of the sciences”, with a violence at times comparable to the prestige it commanded at the time of its impunity. Even today, certain philosophers hastily spread the tragic news with contempt for philosophical inquiry, as if its grave solemnity bestowed upon it some obviousness. Thus, Franco Volpi writes: ‘Grand metaphysics is dead!’ is the slogan which applies to the majority of contemporary philosophers, whether continentals or of analytic profession. They all treat metaphysics as a dead dog.1 In this way, the “path of modern thought” would declare itself vociferously “anti- metaphysical and finally post-metaphysical”. -

Saint Bonaventure
Saint Bonaventure and the Entrance of God Falque Into Theology Saint Bonaventure Saint Bonaventure by Emmanuel Falque and Saint Bonaventure and the Entrance of God Into Theology Into God of Entrance the and Bonaventure Saint translated from French by Brain Lapsa and Sarah Horton The Entrance of God Revised by William C. Hackett Into Theology Properly original, the new version of this essay intends both to nourish debate and differentiate points of view. In its new articulation, the book justifies work that has been carried out since. It justifies the sense of Franciscan rootedness that has never been denied and at the same time opens to the discovery of another reading of the Dominican Thomas Aquinas. The preface specially composed for this American edition, the opening debate with famous medievalist Etienne Gilson, and above all the afterword entitled “Saint Thomas Aquinas and the entrance of God into Philosophy” make it a radically new book. Emmanuel Falque, Professor and honorary dean of philosophy at the Institut Catholique de Paris (ICP), is a philosopher of religion whose research and writing focuses on patristic and medieval philosophy, phenomenology and philosophy of religion. A graduate of the University of Paris IV (Sorbonne), he received his license in Catholic theology summa cum laude from the Centre Sèvres, a university level Jesuit institution in Paris, in 1993, then returned to the Sorbonne to study with Jean-Luc Marion and earned a Ph.D. in philosophy summa cum laude in 1998 and the title of full Professor in 2006. He erved as the 2015 Tipton Visiting Professor in Catholic Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara and held the Gadamer Visiting Professorship Chair in 2016 (Boston College). -

Malebranche's Augustinianism and the Mind's Perfection Abstract This dissertation presents a unified interpretation of Malebranche’s philosophical system that is based on his Augustinian theory of the mind’s perfection, which consists in maximizing the mind’s ability to successfully access, comprehend, and follow God’s Order through practices that purify and cognitively enhance the mind’s attention. I argue that the mind’s perfection figures centrally in Malebranche’s philosophy and is the main hub that connects and reconciles the three fundamental principles of his system, namely, his occasionalism, divine illumination, and freedom. To demonstrate this, I first present, in chapter one, Malebranche’s philosophy within the historical and intellectual context of his membership in the French Oratory, arguing that the Oratory’s particular brand of Augustinianism, initiated by Cardinal Bérulle and propagated by Oratorians such as Andre Martin, is at the core of his philosophy and informs his theory of perfection. Next, in chapter two, I explicate Augustine’s own theory of perfection in order to provide an outline, and a basis of comparison, for Malebranche’s own theory of perfection. -
“The Sixth Sense”: Towards a History of Muscular Sensation
Gesnerus 68/1 (2011) 218–71 “The Sixth Sense”: Towards a History of Muscular Sensation Roger Smith* Summary This paper outlines the history of knowledge about the muscular sense and provides a bibliographic resource for further research. A range of different topics, questions and approaches have interrelated throughout this history, and the discussion clarifies this rather than presenting detailed research in any one area. Part I relates the origin of belief in a muscular sense to empiricist accounts of the contribution of the senses to knowledge from Locke, via the idéologues and other authors, to the second half of the nine- teenth century. Analysis paid much attention to touch, first in the context of the theory of vision and then in its own right, which led to naming a distinct muscular sense. From 1800 to the present, there was much debate, the main lines of which this paper introduces, about the nature and function of what turned out to be a complex sense. A number of influential psycho-physiolo- gists, notably Alexander Bain and Herbert Spencer, thought this sense the most primitive and primary of all, the origin of knowledge of world, causa- tion and self as an active subject. Part II relates accounts of the muscular sense to the development of nervous physiology and of psychology. In the decades before 1900, the developing separation of philosophy, psychology and physiology as specialised disciplines divided up questions which earlier writers had discussed under the umbrella heading of muscular * The stimulus for writing up this paper, which I had long put off because I hoped to do some- thing more rounded, came from the participants, and especially from the organisers, Vincent Barras and Guillemette Bolens, of a project ‘L’intelligence kinesthésique et le savoir sensori- moteur: entre arts et sciences’, at a conference of World Knowledge Dialogue, ‘Interdisci- plinarity in action: a p ractical experience of interdisciplinary research’, Villars-sur-Ollon, Switzerland, 10–14 October 2010. -
