Ernest Sosa and virtuously begging the question MICHAEL WALSCHOTS Department of Philosophy University of Windsor 401 Sunset Ave. Windsor, ON N9P 3B4 Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT: This paper discusses the notion of epistemic circularity, supposedly different from logical circu- larity, and evaluates Ernest Sosa’s claim that this specific kind of circular reasoning is virtuous rather than vicious. I attempt to determine whether or not the conditions said to make epistemic circularity a permissible instance of begging the question could make other instances of circular reasoning equally permissible. KEYWORDS: begging the question, circular reasoning, Ernest Sosa, epistemic circularity, petitio principii, reliabilism. 1. INTRODUCTION In 1986, William Alston introduced the idea of ‘epistemic circularity’, which involves assuming the reliability of a given source of belief during the process of proving the reli- ability of that same source.

  • Persistence, Vagueness, and Location
    PERSISTENCE, VAGUENESS, AND LOCATION Antony Eagle University of Adelaide, antonyeagle.org Forthcoming in The Journal of Philosophy I will discuss two arguments in favor of perdurance. The first is Sider’s argument from vagueness.1 Sider regards this argument as “one of the most powerful” in favor of perdurantism. I make the observation – obvious once made, but I am unable to find it elsewhere in the literature – that endurantists have principled grounds to claim that the argument is unsound (§§I–III). Having made this observation, I use it to emphasize a somewhat neglected difference between endurantists and perdurantists with respect to their views on material objects (§IV). These views, in the case of endurantists, lead to a further, less than conclusive but nevertheless interesting argument against endurantism – the anti-fundamentality argument – which I discuss in the second half of the paper (§§V–VI). I. THE ARGUMENT FROM VAGUENESS To begin, some terminology. An assignment is a (possibly partial) function from times to a set of entities existing at each time; a D-fusion of an assignment is an entity that is, at each time for 1 Theodore Sider, Four-Dimensionalism: an Ontology of Persistence and Time (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 2001), at §4.9.3. 1 which the assignment is defined, constituted by the fusion of the members of the set which is the value of the assignment at that time; a minimal D-fusion of an assignment is a D-fusion which exists only at the times for which the assignment is defined.2 In these terms, Sider’s argument aims to establish this conclusion: (U) “every assignment has a minimal D-fusion”.3 U swiftly entails the existence of temporal parts, because the singleton assignment {⟨�, �⟩} is well- formed for any � existing at �, and so has a minimal D-fusion – an entity which is the fusion of � at � and exists only at �, which meets Sider’s widely agreed criteria for being a temporal part of � at �.4 Note how important the word ‘minimal’ is in U.

    Presentation Editorial / Editorial PRESENTATION Waldomiro José Silva Filho 1 Marcos Antonio Alves 2 It is with great happiness and honor that we present this special issue of Trans/Form/Ação: Unesp journal of philosophy in honor of Ernest Sosa. One of the most influential voices in the contemporary philosophy, Ernest Sosa was born in Cárdenas, Cuba, on June 17, 1940. He earned his Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Master of Arts (M.A.) from the University of Miami and his Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) from the University of Pittsburgh in 1964. Since 2007, he has been Board of Governors Professor of Philosophy at Rutgers University. There is no doubt that Sosa is responsible for one of the revolution in Epistemology that will mark the history of philosophy. However, he also opened new paths in several central issues of philosophy, such as Metaphysics, Philosophy of Language and Philosophy of Mind. In 2020, the world philosophical community on all continents joined with his close friends and family to celebrate Ernie’s 80th birthday. Dozens of publications, books, journals, and webinars were held, even amidst the humanitarian devastation of the pandemic.

Gottlieb and Tirrell: Remembering Claudia Card Remembering Claudia Card: Two Tributes1 Lynne Tirrell and Paula Gottlieb Editor’s note: On behalf of the editors of FPQ, I thank our colleagues for providing us their public addresses at the Celebration of Life of Professor Claudia Falconer Card of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, who died on Saturday, September 12, 2015. Claudia Card was the author of over one hundred articles and books, key works of moral and feminist philosophy including Confronting Evils: Terrorism, Torture, Genocide (Cambridge 2010), The Atrocity Paradigm: A Theory of Evil (Oxford 2002), and The Unnatural Lottery: Character and Moral Luck (Temple 1996). She was the president of the Central division of the APA 2010- 2011, which she often described as her favorite division of the APA. She earned her BA from UW-Madison, and her PhD in 1969 from Harvard University, as the advisee of John Rawls, whom she spoke of with affection as one of the most sensitive and generous of philosophers. I remain grateful to Claudia for being the sort of philosopher who helped her students, colleagues, and readers to confront our responsibilities, and the responsibilities of others, as she lived her own philosophy of taking responsibility for one’s own identity.

  • Rethinking Feminist Ethics
    RETHINKING FEMINIST ETHICS The question of whether there can be distinctively female ethics is one of the most important and controversial debates in current gender studies, philosophy and psychology. Rethinking Feminist Ethics: Care, Trust and Empathy marks a bold intervention in these debates by bridging the ground between women theorists disenchanted with aspects of traditional ‘male’ ethics and traditional theorists who insist upon the need for some ethical principles. Daryl Koehn provides one of the first critical overviews of a wide range of alternative female/ feminist/feminine ethics defended by influential theorists such as Carol Gilligan, Annette Baier, Nel Noddings and Diana Meyers. She shows why these ethics in their current form are not defensible and proposes a radically new alternative. In the first section, Koehn identifies the major tenets of ethics of care, trust and empathy. She provides a lucid, searching analysis of why female ethics emphasize a relational, rather than individualistic, self and why they favor a more empathic, less rule-based, approach to human interactions. At the heart of the debate over alternative ethics is the question of whether female ethics of care, trust and empathy constitute a realistic, practical alternative to the rule- based ethics of Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mill and John Rawls. Koehn concludes that they do not. Female ethics are plagued by many of the same problems they impute to ‘male’ ethics, including a failure to respect other individuals. In particular, female ethics favor the perspective of the caregiver, trustor and empathizer over the viewpoint of those who are on the receiving end of care, trust and empathy.

  • Naturalness, Intrinsicality, and Duplication
    Naturalness, Intrinsicality, and Duplication Theodore Sider Ph.D. thesis, University of Massachusetts. Committee: Phillip Bricker (chair), Fred Feldman, Edmund Gettier, Angelika Kratzer May 1993 Acknowledgments I would like to thank various people for their verbal and written comments on earlier stages of this dissertation. Of course, none of these people are re- sponsible for the views I express. I am indebted to Mark Aronszajn, Lynne Baker, David Braun, Earl Conee, David Cowles, Max Cresswell, David Den- by, Fred Feldman, Richard Feldman, Edmund Gettier, Larry Holm, Ned Markosian, Deborah Modrak, and R. Cranston Paull. I am especially indebted to my dissertation director, Phillip Bricker. He consistently gave me excellent comments and helped me to see more mistakes than I care to remember. For whatever there is of value in this dissertation, he deserves much of the credit. i Abstract This dissertation explores the concepts of naturalness, intrinsicality, and du- plication. An intrinsic property is had by an object purely in virtue of the way that object is considered in itself. Duplicate objects are exactly similar, considered as they are in themselves. The perfectly natural properties are the most fundamental properties of the world, upon which the nature of the world depends. In this dissertation I develop a theory of intrinsicality, naturalness, and duplication and explore their philosophical applications. Chapter 1 intro- duces the notions, gives a preliminary survey of some proposed conceptual connections between the notions, and sketches some of their proposed ap- plications. Chapter 2 gives my background assumptions and introduces no- tational conventions. In chapter 3 I present a theory of naturalness.
