Published by Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S0034412520000426 Revd Dr David Efird: an academic tribute JOSHUA COCKAYNE School of Divinity, University of St Andrews, St Andrews, KY16 9JU, UK e-mail: [email protected] DAVID WORSLEY Department of Philosophy, University of York, York, North Yorkshire, YO10 5DD, UK e-mail: [email protected] The Revd Dr David Efird passed away at the beginning of . He was . David was a much-loved teacher and a leading figure in philosophy of religion in the UK. He was also the co-editor of this journal between and . Early work Before arriving in the United Kingdom to study philosophy, David received degrees from Duke University and Princeton Theological Seminary. After complet- ing his Master’s degree at the University of Edinburgh, he moved to Oxford to work on his DPhil with Professor Timothy Williamson. David’s thesis argued against the seemingly intuitive idea that there are contingent existents, claiming instead that everything that exists does so necessarily. David’s expertise in modal metaphysics saw him attract a number of job offers, before accepting a lectureship at the University of York, where he remained until his death. While David’s last years were characterized by a focus on philosophy of religion, it was in metaphysics that he first built his reputation. Most notable among David’s early work at York were a number of co-authored papers written with a colleague, Tom Stoneham, on the topic of metaphysical nihilism. These papers explored the contrary claim to that defended in his doctoral work on modality, namely, that it is possible that there could have been nothing.

  • COMMON WORSHIP1 Joshua Cockayne and David Efird Abstract
    COMMON WORSHIP1 Joshua Cockayne and David Efird Abstract People of faith, particularly in the Judeo-Christian tradition, worship corporately at least as often, if not more so, than they do individually. Why do they do this? There are, of course, many reasons, some having to do with personal preference and others having to do with the theology of worship. But, in this paper, we explore one reason, a philosophical reason, which, despite recent work on the philosophy of liturgy, has gone under-appreciated. In particular, we argue that corporate worship enables a person to come to know God better than they would otherwise know him in individual worship. Introduction In the past 50 years, philosophers of religion have spent a great amount of time considering questions which relate to the epistemology of religious belief, in particular, to whether such belief is rational, justified, warranted, or, in some other way, epistemically permissible. These are just some of the questions that have generated thousands of pages of journal articles, books and conference papers. However, if we look at the issues of religious belief ‘on the street’ (to borrow a phrase from Mark Wynn),2 these are, perhaps, not the questions that occupy the minds of religious believers most of the time, for a commitment to religious belief, at least for many, is more than a commitment to believing certain doctrines or creeds; rather, it is a commitment to a way of life, a way of life typically characterized by attending corporate worship. For many religious believers, they will spend thousands of hours in their lifetime singing hymns, listening to and saying prayers, and listening to sermons and homilies with other people.

  • Methodological Separatism, Modal Pluralism and Metaphysical Nihilism David Efird and Tom Stoneham in This Paper, We Aim to Clari
    Methodological Separatism, Modal Pluralism and Metaphysical Nihilism David Efird and Tom Stoneham In this paper, we aim to clarify the debate over the particular question of whether there might have been nothing, and the more general question of the nature of modality, by introducing the concept of a Modal Theory and investigating its form. We begin by arguing that the question of whether there might have been nothing can be pursued independently of the question of the nature of possible worlds; that is, we can investigate what possibilities there are without having to investigate what possibilities are. A theory that governs what possibilities there are we call ‘a Modal Theory’. We then draw attention to the fact that modal theorists, to date, have typically assumed that modal theories are single-criterion, that is, that they have the form: p iff ◊q for non-disjunctive p.1 In response, we challenge the reasons we take for this assumption, and then present an argument for Modal Theory having multiple-criteria, a view we dub ‘modal pluralism’. We then investigate the forms of the axioms of such a multiple-criteria Modal Theory, and we conclude by drawing lessons for the debate over whether there might have been nothing. 1. Methodological Separatism In earlier work (2005a, 2005b, 2006, and 2008), we have insisted on the distinctness of two philosophical questions one might ask about modality and, more importantly, on the methodological separability of the projects of answering each question.2 In this section we further articulate this methodological thesis and defend it against a recent criticism by John Divers (forthcoming).

  • ANALYTIC ECCLESIOLOGY DOI: Editorial: Analytic Ecclesiology
    2020 TheoLogica An International Journal for Philosophy of Religion and Philosophical Theology S. I. ANALYTIC ECCLESIOLOGY DOI: https://doi.org/10.14428/thl.v4i1.58353 Editorial: Analytic Ecclesiology JOSHUA COCKAYNE University of St. Andrews [email protected] DAVID EFIRD (1974-2020) University of York David Efird, the co-editor of this issue, unexpectedly passed away at the beginning of this year. This issue is dedicated to his memory. “Analytic Ecclesiology” brings two important areas of David’s life into conversation: analytic philosophy and the Church. David studied for a PhD on metaphysical nihilism, under the supervision of Timothy Williamson at the University of Oxford, before taking a post at the University of York, where he remained until his death. David was an exemplary philosopher who could seemingly turn his philosophical nous to any topic or subject. He published papers on topics as varied as the metaphysics of nothingness, the experience of Christian art, liturgy, the social epistemology of deconversion amongst LGBTQ+ individuals, the metaphysics of conception, and the beatific vision. David’s research interests were often directed by the conversations he had with colleagues and students; he was never afraid, after an engaging conversation on an issue, to offer to write something with that person, regardless of their level of seniority and expertise. It was only natural, then, that in beginning his training as an ordained priest, his philosophical expertise would be turned to issues of theological and spiritual importance. David approached his faith and his ministry with the open- mindedness and intrigue of an analytic philosopher; never afraid to interrogate the beliefs of the Church and always willing to help others explore their own beliefs with integrity and honesty, regardless of their particular views.

  • A Philosophy of Christian Art
    A Philosophy of Christian Art Daniel Gustafsson PhD The University of York Department of Philosophy March 2014 Abstract This thesis offers an original and comprehensive philosophical approach to the understanding of Christian art. It draws on a range of sources, from analytic and theological aesthetics, philosophy and theology, to interpret and articulate a vision of the aims and prerogatives of Christian art. Works by William Blake, David Jones, and R. S. Thomas are among those receiving close attention; works which yield a picture of art and creative labour as deeply implicated in the central mysteries and practices of the Christian faith. In five chapters, the thesis addresses the nature and the implications of the Form, the Beauty, the Good, the Ontology, and the Love of Christian art. It is the aim of Christian art to manifest God under the particular forms and beauty of the artwork. These forms are realised and discerned in the context of a Christian life. The artwork’s beauty invites a response of delight, gratitude, and the reorientation of our desires and dispositions towards the infinite beauty of God. As a sacramental object, the Christian artwork is positioned in a Christian ontological narrative, in which we humans are entrusted with transformative stewardship of the world. Outside this conceptual and ontological context, the work will not be experienced as what it is. Ultimately, the Christian artwork begs to be perceived and engaged with – as indeed it is created – as an object of love. Thus the artwork finds its place within an understanding of Christian faith as the striving for a personal union with God.
