The Metaphysics Of Paul Weiss, Philip G. Heim

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis is an exposition of the metaphysical position set down by Paul Weiss in his Modes of Being. It is written in answer to the question, "How is it that there are four irreducible modes of being as held by Paul Weiss?" While the bulk of material with which this thesis deals derives directly from Modes of Being, several of Weiss' central arguments in support of his position were taken from an earlier work, Reality, written in 1939. The fundamental metaphysical positions of both works are compatible with one another.

Epistemology In Western Thought, Richard Harold Higgs

Honors Projects

This paper begins with a study of the philosophical thought preceding Platonism and Aristotlianism [sic], in order that we might have a clear understanding of the issues with which these two men dealt. It is essential for us to understand Platonism and Aristotlianism [sic] for two reasons: first, it is within the framework of thought of these two men that succeeding philosophy has largely worked; secondly, if one understands the issues with which these men struggled, he will understand the issues with which modern philosophy deals. Therefore, some space in the paper has been allotted to the thought of these …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

INITIALLY we had ambitious, even extravagant, plans for this spring number, plans involving a variety of essays from key members of the United States Senate and the House of Representatives as well as a carefully selected covey of candidates for the Republican presidential nomination. Quite obviously, the Congress has been busy of late, although its business is not always as fruitful as many would hope. And that New Hampshire primary on March 10 rather alters calculations regarding the GOP standard-bearer for 1964. In mid-February one of the (then) leading (?) candidates in that primary wrote …

The Ethics Of Paul Weiss, Virginia C. Hill

Bachelors’ Theses

The ethics of Paul Weiss is both the focal point of his philosophy and the impetus for its present refinement. As Weiss puts it, "The object of philosophical inquiry is to become a philosopher in fact." But a philosophy must have permanence, Weiss insists. Therefore, it cannot grow only out of a practical situation. Rather, a philosophy must spring from a view of the essential nature of all that is. From this view the philosopher can determine man's place in the world, the work which man must do, and the ideal toward which he must strive. This, in Weiss's mind, …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

A JOURNAL of contemporary thought cannot and ought not become a journal of current events; editorial and production problems alone prevent this. There are occasions, however, when events are of such transcendent importance and impact that they require immediate attention--even by academics who tend to prefer a measure of detachment if only for the development or emergence of perspective. One such event was the "Jobs and Freedom" march in Washington, D. C., last August 28. Thanks primarily to television coverage, it had a tremendous and immediate impact on all Americans who cared to look and …
