Abstract Martone has recently built a case aimed at showing that any attempt to exploit the ingredients of the semantic machinery of demonstratives to solve Frege’s Puzzle seems...

... of certain sentences. According to modal normativism, metaphysically necessary claims instead express or convey our actual semantic rules. In this paper, I show how the normativist can use Sidelle’s neglected work on rigidity to account for two important phenomena in quantified modal logic...

...://academic.oup.com/pages/standard-publication-reuse-rights ) Abstract Sanford Goldberg has recently proposed a solution to the swamping problem for process reliabilist truth-monism (PRTM). In short, he argues that reliably formed true beliefs have a property he calls the ‘modal reliability property’, the epistemic...

... and target play the decisive role in interpersonal understanding ( Gallagher and Hutto 2008 , Gallagher 2012 ). It does indeed seem that, at least in cases where the target can tell us what state she is in, simulation becomes superfluous. Many recent and historical works on empathy do not (or do...

Abstract Many philosophers have recently defended the epistemic value of imagination. In this paper, we expand these discussions into the realm of virtue epistemology by proposing and defending...

... whom. I argue that this puzzle, which has been developed by Stephen Kearns in a recent paper in this journal, should be solved by accepting that the situation involves normative indeterminacy. A supervaluationist treatment of this indeterminacy allows us to maintain that the normative supervenes...

Specifically, I will highlight recent work on three branches of African normative thought located in normative personhood (§ 2 ), harmonious relationships (§ 3 ) and vitality or life force (§ 4 ). Before proceeding, three caveats are in order. First, readers steeped in the Western or Anglo...

... of dogwhistle terms to watch out for (66–67). This becomes problematic in her prescription for how to fight dogwhistles in Chapter 7 (190–1). Her proposal is that our best bet is ‘inoculation’, which involves media literacy education about both dogwhistle terms and how dogwhistles work. I’m all in on the latter...

It is entirely legitimate to ask for more. Here is a brief account of the lines along which I would elaborate the programme I have...

... psychosemantics (2000: §3.3.2). This support for the view is complicated by a recent development. Cohen (2021) concedes that the relationalist must wait for future psychosemantics to properly gauge its fit therewith (318 n. 16). But this does not render the view troublingly hostage to empirical fortune...

First, we can fail to ‘do our part’, that is, fail to contribute to fulfilling the joint intention. Second, we can fail to respect our...

...: accept one big idea about moral reasons, and receive an elegant non-consequentialist framework for the morality of rescue. In Chapters 1–4, Pummer develops his big idea in theory, and Chapters 5–8 argue that his big idea has significant implications for the real world. This is a scintillating work, whose...
