Sellars on modality: possible worlds and rules of inference British Journal for the History of Philosophy Pub Date : 2023-08-29 Sybren Heyndels
ABSTRACT This paper discusses the account of alethic modality as presented by Wilfrid Sellars in his earlier work from 1947 to 1958. Its aim is twofold. First, I discuss Sellars' analysis by exploring its historical relationship to Carnap's account of modality. I argue that Carnap's early syntactic treatment of modality profoundly influenced Sellars' own so-called ‘regulist' account of modality in

Mirroring omni-present suffering: a Chan Buddhist alternative to phronesis British Journal for the History of Philosophy Pub Date : 2023-08-21 Jacob Bender
ABSTRACT In this study, I present the Chan Buddhist alternative to phronesis or ‘practical wisdom’. Instead of involving the skill or ‘know-how’ in applying moral principles to particular situations, the Chan Buddhist virtuously responds to situations because they understand how each situation is a ‘part’ of a larger whole or a ‘function’ (用) of the ‘body’ (體). Ultimately, this sensitivity to how each

Intentionality in Avicenna: a reconstruction based on his notion of ‘consideration’ British Journal for the History of Philosophy Pub Date : 2023-08-01 Mohsen Saber, Majid Tavoosi Yangabadi
ABSTRACT Although Avicenna does not explicitly develop a ‘theory of intentionality', one can reconstruct his account of intentionality through an analysis of his thoughts on the relation between mind, meaning, and thing. We take up this task in this paper through an analysis of Avicenna's theory of the considerations of quiddity. First, we clarify Avicenna's idea of ‘quiddity', and show how it functions
