The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

Chiding modern historians for a hidebound rigidity that blinds them to the truths that lie in historical fiction and poetry, JAMES A. STEVENSON argues that Edmund Spenser's history of Elizabethan times revealed less than his magnificent, but outwardly fictional Faerie Queen. Holder of a doctorate in history and a recently completed master's degree in English literature, Stevenson has published articles on history, film, and literature in a variety of academic journals, including an essay on Lincoln's affinity for Macbeth in The Midwest Quarterly. He is currently Assistant Professor of History at East Georgia College.

Kant’S Dubious Disciples: Hare And Rawls, Edward Papa Apr 1991

Kant’S Dubious Disciples: Hare And Rawls, Edward Papa

Philosophy, Theology and Religious Studies Faculty Publications

The aim of this paper is to show that Kant's Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals has set a basic pattern of research for moral philosophy, a pattern established by the structure of the text, and one which implies an overarching thesis, 'the Groundwork is divided into three sections: (1) an analysis of ordinary moral judgments which identifies their formal rule, (2) the derivation of the supreme principle of morality, and (3) the presentation of a theory of reason which grounds the possibility of moral action. Kant seeks to explain the sense in which moral action may be said to …


Nietzsche And The Future Of The University, Gary Shapiro Apr 1991

Nietzsche And The Future Of The University, Gary Shapiro

Philosophy Faculty Publications

Nietzsche's first generation of readers tended to see him as a thinker, philosopher or prophet of the future; he was the teacher of the superman, the transvaluator of all values, the founder of a new philosophy of the will to power. In the many discourses of the early twentieth century that are devoted in various ways to 'Nietzsche and the Future' there are obvious signs of the nineteenth century cult of progress, although interpreted divergently by social Darwinism, socialism or anarchism. Now we are more sophisticated. Those first readers saw Nietzsche as radicalizing and rewriting the modernist metanarrative (substituting the …


Division And Explanation In Aristotle's Parts Of Animals, Allan Gotthelf Mar 1991

Division And Explanation In Aristotle's Parts Of Animals, Allan Gotthelf

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

The nature and proper methods of logical division, διαίρεσις, are important concerns in at least four of Plato’s later dialogues, and reflections on the process may even have led Plato to a revised conception of the very nature of a Form. The place of division in Aristotle’s Topics - both in the organization of some of its materials and as the method for seeking definitions which many of the topoi are designed to regulate - suggests the importance διαίρεσις must have had in the Academy, as does the Epicrates fragment and Aristotle’s criticism of alternative views of the nature or …

Plotinus On The Objects Of Thought, Eyolfur Emilsson Mar 1991

Plotinus On The Objects Of Thought, Eyolfur Emilsson

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

The strong identity Plotinus maintains between the intellect and its objects, the ideas, can be explained in terms of his acceptance of certain sceptical arguments; in particular he holds that unless the subject and the object of thought are strictly identical, there is room for doubt and error. Moreover, I suppose that Plotinus believed that without this identity the traditional account of the forms as at once ontological and epistemological standards cannot hold. Thus, I am suggesting that we see Plotinus' position here as that of a Platonist who says to his fellow Platonists: if you wish to hold, as …

On Having Reasons For Perceptual Beliefs: A Sellarsian Perspective, Dan D. Crawford Jan 1991

On Having Reasons For Perceptual Beliefs: A Sellarsian Perspective, Dan D. Crawford

Department of Philosophy: Faculty Publications

I interpret and defend Sellars’ internalist view of perceptual justification which argues that perceivers have evidence for their perceptual beliefs that includes a higher-order belief about the circumstances in which those beliefs arise, and an epistemic belief about the reliability of beliefs that are formed in those circumstances. The pattern of inference that occurs in ordinary cases of perception is elicited.

I then defend this account of perceptual evidence against (1) Alston’s objection that ordinary perceivers are not as critical and reflective as this view requires them to be, and (2) the charge that internalism leads to various forms of …

Persona Criticism And The Death Of The Author, Cheryl Walker Jan 1991

Persona Criticism And The Death Of The Author, Cheryl Walker

Scripps Faculty Publications and Research

The difficulty with doing biographical criticism today is that the figure of the author has increasingly come under attack, almost as if the author's portrait, which at one time routinely accompanied critical works, were being atomized, dissolved in an acid bath of scorn and distrust. Though "death of the author" critics have made a number of important points about the rigidity and naiveté of certain earlier forms of biographical criticism, I find that in my own practice I am loath to give up all vestiges of the author. The strategy I have chosen is what I would call persona criticism, …


Believing The Impossible, Curtis Brown Jan 1991

Believing The Impossible, Curtis Brown

Philosophy Faculty Research

This article offers an interpretation of Ruth Barcan Marcus's view that just as we cannot know what is false, we cannot believe what is impossible, followed by an argument that if this defense succeeded, it would justify rejecting many of out ordinary belief ascriptions. Although, this defense does not succeed there is something correct and important in Marcus's argument.
