I respond to the main criticisms raised by Schwitzgebel, Machery, and Drayson of the main arguments of Pieces of mind in favor of the position I call literalism. Schwitzgebel's mainly supportive commentary decries the Cartesian assumption that mindedness is an all or nothing affair. Machery claims that there is an alternative to literalism that is a better interpretation of the uses of psychological predicates across species. Drayson argues that literalism is mistaken on a number of fundamental metaphysical issues. I conclude that literalism emerges even stronger as a result of confronting their excellent criticisms.

为什么文字主义仍然是城里最好的游戏:回复德雷森,马切里和施维茨贝格

我回应了Schwitzgebel,Machery和Drayson对心智的主要论点提出的主要批评,赞成我称之为文字主义的立场。Schwitzgebel的主要支持性评论否认了笛卡尔的假设,即思维是全有或全无。Machery声称,有一种替代文字主义的方法,它可以更好地解释跨物种的心理谓词的用法。德雷森(Drayson)认为,字面性在许多基本的形而上学问题上是错误的。我的结论是,面对他们的出色批评,文字主义变得更加强大。
