  1. Contemporary (Analytic Tradition).Robert Michels - 2024 - In Kathrin Koslicki & Michael J. Raven (eds.), The Routledge Handbook of Essence in Philosophy. Routledge.
    This paper provides an overview of the history of the notion of essence in 20th century analytic philosophy, focusing on views held by influential analytic philosophers who discussed, or relied on essence or cognate notions in their works. It in particular covers Russell and Moore’s different approaches to essence before and after breaking with British idealism, the (pre- and post-)logical positivists’ critique of metaphysics and rejection of essence (Wittgenstein, Carnap, Schlick, Stebbing), the tendency to loosen the notion of logical necessity (...)

  • Applications and Extensions of Counterpart Theory.Peterson Bridgette - 2017 - Dissertation, University of Massachusetts Amherst
    An exploration of the details of counterpart theory, and some applications of the view. In Chapter 1, I set out the view and clarify the most important features: that the counterpart relation is a context dependent similarity relation, and that individuals are world-bound entities. I then set out what I take to be the most promising methods of filling in important details. Chapter 2 is a discussion of an alternative view, lump theory. I attempt to distinguish lump theory from counterpart (...)

  • Non-Boolean classical relevant logics I.Tore Fjetland Øgaard - 2019 - Synthese (8):1-32.
    Relevant logics have traditionally been viewed as paraconsistent. This paper shows that this view of relevant logics is wrong. It does so by showing forth a logic which extends classical logic, yet satisfies the Entailment Theorem as well as the variable sharing property. In addition it has the same S4-type modal feature as the original relevant logic E as well as the same enthymematical deduction theorem. The variable sharing property was only ever regarded as a necessary property for a logic (...)

  • La typologie sémiotique des modalités. Une mise au point.Sémir Badir - 2020 - Semiotica 2020 (234):79-101.
    Résumé On enquête dans cet article sur le concept de modalité comme il a été élaboré dans la théorie sémiotique, distinctement des approches linguistique et logique, à l’instigation d’A. J. Greimas, puis largement employé dans l’analyse des textes. Si la modalité répond tout d’abord de la possibilité de présence d’un verbe modal (pouvoir, vouloir, savoir), bientôt l’effort théorique des sémioticiens a tendu à rendre compte des différentes modalités au moyen d’une structure sémantique. L’exposé de cinq travaux poursuivant cet effort de (...)

  • Origen y fundamentación de la Semántica de Mundos Posibles. Una aproximación a su constitución histórico-sistemática.Marcel Chávez - 2019 - Apuntes Filosóficos 28 (55):41-65.
    The possible worlds semantics is articulated as one of the most relevant logical and philosophical theories of our time. The famous possible worlds form and have been part of the philosophical jargon of authors of the so-called analytical tendency in the last decades. It has also been a theory suitable for the treatment and approach of many topics and problems that have afflicted philosophers of all time. In this paper, we will focus on the origin, preparation and consolidation of PWS (...)
