  • My Own Life[1]
    My Own Life[1] Dorion Cairns I was born July 4th, 1901, in the village of Contoocook, in the town of Hopkinton, New Hampshire. My father, James George Cairns, was the pastor of the Methodist Church in Contoocook, and I was the first child of my parents. During my first three and a half years of life, my father moved from one place to another as pastor of Methodist Churches in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. My brother, Stewart Scott Cairns, currently Professor of Mathematics at the University of Illinois, was born May 8th, 1904. My father felt that there was no future for a young minister in New England, and he decided to move his family—which consisted of my mother, my brother and me—to California. He shipped all of our family goods, all of our furniture and things, to California on the very day of the San Francisco Earthquake, or “Fire,” as they like to call it in San Francisco. The California Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church at that time controlled what was called the “Utah Mission.” This was a mission to Mormon Territory, needless to say. My father, since there were so many people of longer standing in the California Conference who had no churches left owing to the earthquake, was given a church in Utah Mission, in Salt Lake City itself. It was there in 1907 that my sister Mary, who is the wife of James Wilkinson Miller, currently Professor of Philosophy at McGill University in Montreal, was born. When they wanted to transfer my father from this little church in Salt Lake City to a church or mission in Provo, Utah, my father went and looked at the set-up in Provo, and he came back, and it was the first time I had seen a grown man cry.

For instance we speak of B's deceiving C unintentionally-as when B conveys to C a false impression about the facts although he (B) did not intend to do so. Thus, in 'de- ceiving', it is the effect that counts-inducing an erroneous belief in C's mind. But in 'lying', the intention is part of the meaning. I have lied to you although you have not believed me and so have not been misled by me.

  • „The Origins of Objectivity in Communal Discussion“. Einige Bemerkungen Zu Gadamers Und Davidsons Interpretationen Des Philebos
    Rafael Ferber „The Origins of Objectivity in Communal Discussion“. Einige Bemerkungen zu Gadamers und Davidsons Interpretationen des Philebos „Inwendig lernt kein Mensch sein Innerstes / Erkennen, Denn er mißt nach eigenem Maß...“ J. W. Goethe, Torquato Tasso In memoriam Franco Volpi Es gehört zu den erstaunlichen Tatsachen der Philosophie des späten 20. Jahrhunderts, dass zwei ihrer herausragenden Repräsentanten ihre lange akade- mische Laufbahn mit demselben platonischen Spätdialog begonnen haben. Es sind dies Hans Georg Gadamer (1900-2002) mit seiner 1928 angenommenen Marburger Habilitationsschrift Platos dialektische Ethik. Phänomenologische Interpretationen zum Philebos (1931) und Donald Davidson (1917-2003) mit seiner Dissertation Platos Philebus (1949) an der University of Harvard. „nisi ad Philebum redieris, prorsus intelligere non possis“ („wer nicht zum ,Philebus‘ zurückgeht, dessen Erkennen kann nicht vorankommen“) — diesen Ausspruch Friedrich Adolf Trendelenburgs (1802-1872) in seiner Berliner An- trittsrede De Platonis Philebi consilio (1837) scheinen mutatis mutandis beide zu bestätigen.1 Gadamer wurde wohl durch seinen Lehrer Paul Friedländer (1882- 1968) auf diesen Dialog gelenkt, Davidson aber durch Raphael Demos (1892- 1968). Dessen Werk The Philosophy of Plato befand sich seit 1939 im Besitz Davidsons, und er war zusammen mit Donald C.

    Natural Philosophy and Politics in the Eighteenth Century: Esad of Ioannina and Greek Aristotelianism at the Ottoman Court* B. Harun Küçük** XVIII. Yüzyılda Fizik ve Politika: Yanyalı Esad Efendi ve Rum Aristoculuğunun Osmanlı Sarayındaki Yeri Öz Yanyalı Esad Efendi’nin El-Tā‘līmü’s-Sālis isimli ve Johannes Cottunius’un Com- mentarii...de physico auditu’nun Arapça çevirisi olan risalesi, III. Ahmet devrinin en önemli çalışmalarından biridir. Çeviri, Padova Aristoculuğunu dönemin Müslüman yazınına sokmuştur. İbn Sinacılık, işrâkilik ve kelam gibi Osmanlı İstanbul’unda popüler olan fikir akımlarının aksine, Aristocu düşünceyi materyalist açıdan irde- leyen bu eser, felsefenin ana hatlarını yeniden çizerek fiziği ön plana çıkarmakta ve de felsefeyi dünyevi bir teselli kaynağı olarak takdim etmektedir. Çeviriye arka plan oluşturan ana dinamikler ise Yunan kimliğinin Rum Ortodoks kimliğinden ayrıl- maya başlaması, felsefenin bir uğraşı olarak Osmanlı yönetici eliti arasında yaygınlık kazanması, ve de Müslüman ve Rum Ortodoks patronaj ağlarının girişik hale gel- mesidir. İslâm felsefesi dinamikleri içinde okunagelmiş olan bu eser, daha önce Rum Aydınlanması olarak bilinen hareketin Osmanlı’nın geneline mahsus daha geniş bir akımın bir parçası olduğuna işaret etmektedir. Anahtar kelimeler: Yanyalı Esad, III. Ahmet, Aristoculuk, Padova Üniversitesi, Rum Aydınlanması, Osmanlı patronaj ağları, Rum Ortodoks Kilisesi The reign of Ahmed III was a time of cultural and scholarly revitalization for Istanbul.

The incredibility of the moment is that these two greatest thinkers have created the two (polar to each other) supersystems of knowledge that are precisely of cosmological character, for they realize the comprehensive (all-embracing) knowledge with respect to the surrounding tangible (visible) world (cosmos or Kosmos).

ABSTRACT The purpose of my thesis is to analyse the possibility of deliberate self-deception. The analysis is developed in two stages. First, 1 provide an anaiysis of the term 'self- deception' and the problems that this terni presents for philosophers. Second, 1 analyse the possibility of on particuiar kind of self-deception, namely, deliberately making oneself believe what one knows is false. Even a superficial glance over the literature on self-deception reveals the variety of interpretations of the term 'self4eception'.
