Book The Selected Writings of Eva Picardi

Download or read book The Selected Writings of Eva Picardi written by Eva Picardi and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eva Picardi has been one of the most influential Italian analytic philosophers of her generation. She taught for forty years at the University of Bologna, raising three generations of students. This collection of selected writings honors her work, confirming Picardi's status as one of the most important Frege scholars of her generation and a leading authority on the philosophy of Donald Davidson. Bringing together Picardi's contributions to the history of analytic philosophy, it includes her papers on major 20th-century figures such as Wittgenstein, Quine, Davidson, Rorty, and Brandom. She examines their work in comparison with the philosopher Michael Dummett's, illuminating contrasts between American Neo-pragmatism and Continental philosophy. By considering key contributions made by Gadamer and Adorno and contrasting them with Davidson and Rorty's proposals, Picardi is able to bridge the Analytic and Continental divide. Featuring an introduction by Annalisa Coliva and new translations of previously unpublished papers, this collection emphasizes the significance of Picardi's work for a new generation of readers.

Book History of Mind  Studies in the Philosophy of Simo Knuuttila

Download or read book History of Mind Studies in the Philosophy of Simo Knuuttila written by Ritva Palmén and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-12-02 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simo Knuuttila was an influential philosopher, theologian, and historian of philosophy who conducted research on a variety of topics including modalities, emotions, perception, and change in different historical periods, from Ancient to Modern. His contribution to the study of modalities and emotions was groundbreaking and trendsetting with a lasting impact on the area. In this volume, a group of international scholars – all of whom worked directly with Knuuttila – elaborate on some of those topics, trying to understand the core interpretative ideas, the polemical aspects, and how to develop those interpretations in different authors and/or conceptual frameworks. The result is an unique volume that presents a broad range of perspectives on key topics in the history of philosophy in the last decades, both influenced and challenging the interpretations advocated by Knuuttila.

Within these sections the central issues, debates and problems are examined, including possible worlds, essentialism, counterfactuals, ontological dependence, modal fictionalism, deflationism, the integration challenge, conceivability, a priori knowledge, laws of nature, natural kinds, and logical necessity. The Routledge Handbook of Modality is essential reading for students and researchers in epistemology, metaphysics and philosophy of language.

Book The Tradition of Medieval Logic and Speculative Grammer

Download or read book The Tradition of Medieval Logic and Speculative Grammer written by Fabienne Pironet and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 1997 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La bibliographie repertorie les livres et articles publies entre 1977 et 1994 portant sur la logique et la grammaire depuis Boece jusqu'a la fin du XVIIe siecle. L'inclusion des auteurs comme Pascal, Descartes, Arnauld, Leibniz et Locke est justifiee tant par le developpement des etudes en ce domaine (880 items jusqu'en 1976, 2124 items entre 1977 et 1994) que par l'extension chronologique de ces memes etudes. La recherche des sources amene les modernistes a s'interesser de plus en plus aux auteurs medievaux, tandis que certains medievistes cherchent a savoir quelle fut la fortune des textes qu'ils etudient. En annexe un supplement a la bibliographie de Earline Jennifer Ashworth (Toronto, 1978) est propose.

Book Frege on Language  Logic  and Psychology

Download or read book Frege on Language Logic and Psychology written by Eva Picardi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eva Picardi (1948-2017) was one of the most influential Italian analytic philosophers of her generation. She taught for forty years at the University of Bologna, raising three generations of students. This volume presents a selection of Picardi's essays on Frege's philosophy of logic, language, and psychology. Together, these papers provide a close look at the milieu within which Frege operated, and serve to highlight the relevance of his work for contemporary debates, particularly in the philosophy of language. One strand in Picardi's work on Frege concerns understanding and contextualizing Frege's anti-psychologism. Picardi contends that Frege was motivated by semantic considerations, much more so than by adherence to Kantian transcendentalism. Furthermore, Picardi draws on her deep knowledge of German, and the fact that she was a native speaker of Italian, to reconstruct the intricacies of Frege's relationship with other logicians of his time-both in Germany, like Kerry and Sigwart, and in Italy, like Peano and his school. Picardi's work shows how the historical and the theoretical (typically treated as separate in contemporary analytic philosophy, even in competition), complement and enrich one another.

Book Handbook of the History of General Topology

Download or read book Handbook of the History of General Topology written by C.E. Aull and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-03-31 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first one of a work in several volumes, treating the history of the development of topology. The work contains papers which can be classified into 4 main areas. Thus there are contributions dealing with the life and work of individual topologists, with specific schools of topology, with research in topology in various countries, and with the development of topology in different periods. The work is not restricted to topology in the strictest sense but also deals with applications and generalisations in a broad sense. Thus it also treats, e.g., categorical topology, interactions with functional analysis, convergence spaces, and uniform spaces. Written by specialists in the field, it contains a wealth of information which is not available anywhere else.

Book Speculative Grammar  Universal Grammar  Philosophical Analysis

Download or read book Speculative Grammar Universal Grammar Philosophical Analysis written by Dino Buzzetti and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together papers originally presented at a seminar series on Speculative Grammar, Universal Grammar, and Philosophical Analysis, held at the University of Bologna in 1984. The seminars aimed at considering various aspects of the interplay between linguistic theories on the one hand, and theories of meaning and logic on the other. The point of view was mainly historical, but a theoretical approach was also considered relevant. Theories of grammar and related topics were taken as a focal point of interest; their interaction with philosophical reflections on languages was examined in presentations dealing with different authors and periods, ranging from the Middle Ages to the present day.
