Sant Vicent Ferrer Secondary School, Algemesí [email protected] abstract Josep-Lluís Blasco (1940-2003) was an inspired ideologist to the political parties embodying nationalist and leftist positions in the Valencian Country. In regard to Philosophy, Blasco awoke an interest in analytic philosophy and took part in one of the most successful projects the Faculty of Philosophy of Valencia ever endeavored: the international symposia on Logic and Philosophy of Science and the publication of the journal Teorema. His work counts as one of the most solid contributions our culture has yielded within the field of Epistemology. key words Josep-Lluís Blasco, Catalan Philosophy, Analytical Philosophy, Epistemology. Professor Josep Lluís Blasco was born in Sagunto in 1940. Determining what his main concern, aspiration or personal motivation was throughout his life would entail having to decide whether his philosophical inclination was more weighty than his political interests, and that would be no easy assignment. Blasco showed a lively social and political conscience from an early age. He embarked on an Arts degree in 19591 and was diligent in his course work while also being among the critical and active students who were striving to contest the inertia of the Franco regime, which also permeated the university milieu.

  • Appropriate Belief Without Evidence
    teorema Vol. XXXIV/2, 2015, pp. 7-28 ISSN: 0210-1602 [BIBLID 0210-1602 (2015) 34:2; pp. 7-28] Appropriate Belief without Evidence Natalie Alana Ashton RESUMEN En este artículo defiendo una versión del contextualismo wittgensteiniano. Se trata de un punto de vista sobre la justificación de acuerdo con el cual algunas creen- cias son epistémicamente apropiadas puesto que no puede aducirse evidencia a su fa- vor. Rastreo la historia de este punto de vista desde Wittgenstein y Ortega hasta la actualidad, defiendo a una versión suya de la acusación de relativismo y sugiero algu- nas de sus aplicaciones dentro y fuera de la filosofía. PALABRAS CLAVE: justificación, evidencia, contextualismo wittgensteiniano, epistemo- logía de las proposiciones-gozne, relativismo. ABSTRACT In this paper I defend a version of Wittgensteininan contextualism. This is a view about justification on which some beliefs are epistemically appropriate because evidence cannot be adduced in their favour. I trace the history of the view from Witt- genstein and Ortega to the present day, defend one version from the charge of relativ- ism, and suggest some applications of the view both within and without philosophy. KEYWORDS: Justification, Evidence, Wittgensteinian Contextualism, Hinge Epistemology, Relativism. INTRODUCTION What makes a belief justified? There is little consensus on the answer to this question amongst contemporary epistemologists. Some think that a subject must have, and be able to cite, evidence or reasons in order for her belief to be justified; others think that features of her epistemic position which are not accessible by her are more important. One position which has received relatively little attention is that in- spired by Wittgenstein.

  • Taking a Naturalistic Turn in the Health and Disease Debate
    teorema Vol. XL/1, 2021, pp. 91-109 ISNN 0210-1602 [BIBLID 0210-1602 (2021) 40:1; pp. 91-109 Taking a Naturalistic Turn in the Health and Disease Debate Jonathan Sholl and Simon Okholm RESUMEN Situamos el debate, ya muy trillado, sobre la definición de salud y enfermedad den- tro del proyecto de una metafísica de la ciencia y su objetivo de trabajar con y para la ciencia. Hacemos uso de la ‘caja metafísica’ de Guay y Pradeu para replantear este debate, mostrando lo que está en juego en los recientes intentos de dar un paso más en el citado debate, revelando puntos de acuerdo y desacuerdo imprevistos entre posiciones nuevas y antiguas, y haciendo nuevas preguntas que pueden conducir a un progreso real. Poste- riormente, discutimos las implicaciones de los beneficios bidireccionales entre la medici- na y la filosofía cuando la ciencia médica impulsa y limita a esta última. PALABRAS CLAVE: filosofía de la medicina, salud y enfermedad, el giro naturalista, metafísica de la ciencia. ABSTRACT We situate the well-trodden debate about defining health and disease within the pro- ject of a metaphysics of science and its aim to work with and contribute to science. We make use of Guay and Pradeu’s ‘metaphysical box’ to reframe this debate, showing what is at stake in recent attempts to move beyond it, revealing unforeseen points of agreement and disagreement among new and old positions, and producing new questions that may lead to progress. We then discuss the implications of the two-way benefits between medicine and philosophy when the latter is driven and constrained by medical science.
