Theories 'n Things: October 2007
http://theoriesnthings.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 24, 2007. London Logic and Metaphysics Forum (x-posted from MV). If you're in London on a Tuesday evening, what better to do than to take in a talk by a young philosopher on logic or metaphysics? Spotting this gap in the tourist offerings, the clever folks in the capital have set up the London Logic and Metaphysics forum. Looks an exciting programme, though I have my doubts about the joker on the 11th Dec. Tues 30 Oct: David Liggins (Manchester). Tues 27 Nov: Ofra Magidor (Oxford).

Yesterday Trenton Merricks gave a great talk on Truth and Freedom. He argued that a class of fatalist arguments of the form below are question begging and that their first premise is false. 1 It was true a thousand years ago that Jones sits at time t (where t is a few moments from now), and Jones has no choice about that fact. A defense of th...

Theories 'n Things: Aristotelian indeterminacy and partial beliefs
http://theoriesnthings.blogspot.com/2008/02/aristotelian-indeterminacy-and-partial.html
Thursday, February 14, 2008. Aristotelian indeterminacy and partial beliefs. I’ve just finished a first draft of the second paper of my research leave. Title the same as this post. There’s a few different ways to think about this material, but since I hadn't posted for a while I thought I'd write up something about how it connects with/arises from some earlier concerns of mine. So let's start there. Now I’ve argued previously. To think that global supervaluational consequence is in this sense revisionary...

A general distrust of strong metaphysical claims in mathematics and philosophy. A Stronger Two-Envelope Paradox. Consider the standard two-envelope paradox – there are two envelopes in front of you, and all you know is that one of them has twice as much money as the other.
