Sometimes there is evidence about what we would decide to do from an improved deliberative position—one in which we have better information, say, or are subject to less bias, or are able to consider the relevant facts with greater vividness. I argue that in such situations we should act on that evidence, and that there are some important ethical and prudential applications for this idea. Following through with this suggestion allows us to respond to the fact that we are prone to error by making the appropriate adjustments in our decision-making. A secondary goal is to explore the neglected role of vividness in our decision-making.

- David Nicolas, Mass nouns and plural logic
Abstract: A dilemma put forward by Schein (1993) and Rayo (2002) suggests that, in order to characterize the semantics of plurals, we should not use predicate logic, but plural logic, a formal language whose terms may refer to several things at once. We show that a similar dilemma applies to mass nouns. If we use predicate logic and sets when characterizing their semantics, we arrive at a Russellian paradox. And if we use predicate logic and mereoogical ums, the semantics turns out to be too weak. We then develop an account where mass nouns are treated as non-singular terms. This semantics is faithful to the intuition that, if there are eight pieces of silverware on a table, the speaker refers to eight things at once when he says: “The silverware that is on the table comes from Italy.” We show that this account provides a satisfactory semantics for a wide range of sentences.

Traditionally, it has been supposed that each utterance of a natural language sentence expresses just one proposition — the same proposition to each person who hears it — and each proposition has just one truth value. Some recent work in the philosophy of language{For example, MacFarlane , Lasersohn , Egan casts doubt on these assumptions. It has been suggested both that assessment (and not just utterance) makes a contribution to context (so that one utterance may express different propositions to different hearers) and that truth may be assessment relative (so that one proposition may have different truth values for different hearers)….

- Paul Lodge (with Stephen Puryear ), Unconscious Conceiving and Leibniz’s Argument for Primitive Concepts
In a recent paper, Dennis Plaisted examines an important argument that Leibniz gives for the existence of primitive concepts. Plaisted concentrates on a version of the argument found in a piece from the late 1670s called Of an Organum or Ars Magna of Thinking. However, truncated versions of essentially the same argument can be found in several other writings from the period. Plaisted begins his treatment by sketching a natural reading of Leibniz’s argument. He points out that, on this reading, the argument implies something clearly inconsistent with Leibniz’s other views. To save Leibniz from contradiction, Plaisted offers a revision. However, his account faces a number of serious difficulties and therefore does not successfully eliminate the inconsistency. We explain these difficulties and propose a more plausible alternative. Whilst our paper is constructed around a critique of Plaisted’s article, it has a broader scope. For in responding to the interesting problem that he identifies, we discuss in detail the neglected topic of Leibniz’s views on the nature of conceiving and, in the process, we bring to light his commitment to the somewhat surprising thesis that one can conceive something through a concept even if one has no conscious grasp of that concept.

- Pete Mandik (with Josh Weisberg), Type-Q Materialism
In Chase Wrenn, ed. Festschrift for Roger F. Gibson, Jr. , under contract for Peter Lang Publishing Group. (linked file contains uncorrected page proofs). As Gibson (1982) correctly points out, despite Quine’s brief flirtation with a “mitigated phenomenalism” (Gibson’s phrase) in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s, Quine’s ontology of 1953 (”On Mental Entities”) and beyond left no room for non-physical sensory objects or qualities. Anyone familiar with the contemporary neo-dualist qualia-freak-fest might wonder why Quinean lessons were insufficiently transmitted to the current generation. Chalmers (1996a, 2003a) has been a prominent member of the neo-dualists, though he does not leave Quine unmentioned. Neo-dualist arguments proceed by inferring from an epistemic gap between the physical and the phenomenal to an ontological gap between the physical and the phenomenal. Chalmers sorts various materialist responses to these arguments as follows: Type-A materialism denies that there’s any epistemic gap in the first place. Type-B materialism accepts that there is an epistemic gap, but denies that the epistemic gap entails any ontological gap. Type-C materialism is like type-B materialism except it thinks the epistemic gap in question is only temporary. Type-Q materialism (Q for “Quine”), according to Chalmers (2003a), rejects the kinds of distinctions needed to formulate both the neo-dualist arguments and the type-A , type-B, and type-C materialist responses to them. Such rejected distinctions include the conceptual vs. the empirical, the a priori vs. the a posteriori, and the contingent vs. the necessary. Chalmers (2003a, 123) charges Type-Q materialism with being incapable of avoiding the problems alleged to arise for the types from earlier in the alphabet. The aim of the current paper is to argue the contrary point that Quineans are inoculated against these so-called problems. We spell out how Quinean allegiance to holism and pragmatic criteria for ontic commitment protect Type-Q materialism from the complaints of the qualia-freaks.

- Susanna Schellenberg, The Situation-Dependency of Perception
The Journal of Philosophy (forthcoming 2008) I argue that perception is necessarily situation-dependent. The way an object is must not just be distinguished from the way it appears and the way it is represented, but also from the way it is presented given the situational features. First, I argue that the way an object is presented is best understood in terms of external, mind-independent, but situation-dependent properties of objects. Situation-dependent properties are exclusively sensitive to and ontologically dependent on the intrinsic properties of objects, such as their shape, size, and color, and the situational features, such as the lighting conditions and the perceiver’s location in relation to the perceived object. Second, I argue that perceiving intrinsic properties is epistemically dependent on representing situation-dependent properties. Recognizing situation-dependent properties yields four advantages. It makes it possible to embrace the motivations that lead to phenomenalism and indirect realism by recognizing that objects are presented a certain way, while holding on to the intuition that subjects directly perceive objects. Second, it acknowledges that perceptions are not just individuated by the objects they are of, but by the ways those objects are presented given the situational features. Third, it allows for a way to accommodate the fact that there is a wide range of viewing conditions or situational features that can count as normal. Finally, it makes it possible to distinguish perception and thought about the same object with regard to what is represented.
- Ted Hinchman, The Assurance of Warrant
In “Telling as Inviting to Trust” (PPR, May 2005) I defended a version of what Richard Moran subsequently christened the Assurance View of testimony, according to which the epistemic warrant transmitted through testimony derives from an assurance that the speaker gives her addressee and is therefore unavailable to overhearers. But neither my earlier paper nor Moran’s gives an adequate explanation of how the transmission of warrant depends specifically on the speaker’s mode of address, making it natural to suspect that the interpersonal element is merely psychological or action-theoretic, rather than epistemic. I aim here to fill that explanatory gap: to specify exactly how a testifier’s assurance can create genuine epistemic warrant. One attraction of the Assurance View of testimony is that, properly developed, it allows us to reconceptualize the natures of normativity and responsibility more generally, viewing the assurance as implicating us in normative relations of recognition, and therefore of justice, that are not yet moralized with reactive attitudes. Understanding this dimension of bipolar normative relation thus provides us with a principled basis for resisting broader moralizations of normativity and responsibility.

- Christopher Gauker, Against Accommodation: Heim, van der Sandt, and the Presupposition Projection Problem
(forthcoming in John Hawthorne, ed., Philosophical Perspectives, 22, Logic and Language, Blackwell Publishing, 2008): This paper criticizes the dominant approaches to presupposition projection and proposes an alternative. Both the update semantics of Heim and the discourse representation theory of van der Sandt have problems in explicating the presuppositions of disjunctions. Moreover, Heim’s approach is committed to a conception of accommodation that founders on the problem of informative presuppositions, and van der Sandt’s approach is committed to a conception of accommodation that generates over-interpretations of utterances. The present approach borrows Karttunen’s idea that instead of associating presuppositions with sentences, we should define the conditions that contexts must meet in order to satisfy-the-presuppositions of a sentence. However, in place of Karttunen’s conception of contexts in terms of common ground, the present theory substitutes a conception of contexts as objective entities that are independent of the attitudes of the interlocutors. Contexts, so conceived, may be defined as containing sets of relevant possibilities. This allows us to define the conditions under which a context satisfies the presuppositions of a disjunction.
- —-, The Illusion of Semantic Reference
(pdf document. Version of March 21, 2006. Originally written in response to an invitation for a publication project that was subsequently cancelled.) A lot of us have given up on the idea that there will be a naturalistic account of the relation of semantic reference and so have resolved to formulate our theories of semantics and communication without appeal to it. Still, there is a resilient intuition to the effect that I know the extensions of the terms of my language. This paper explicates that intuition without yielding to it. The key idea is to give a “skeptical” account of what it is to “know the meaning” of a word, by which I mean an account of the status that is granted to a person in saying that he or she “knows the meaning” of a word.

(pdf document). This is the text of my comments on the project of dynamic semantics for the session on that topic at the Central Division APA meeting on April 21, 2007. The other speakers were Jeroen Groenendijk, Frank Veltman and Thony Gillies. I question the philosophical basis for dynamic semantics. My doubts have to do with the nature of information states and the norms of semantics. I also question the data that inspire the project. In particular, I question the data concerning presupposition and the data concerning modal operators and conditionals.

- Ian Thompson, Discrete Degrees Within and Between Nature and Mind
Examining the role of dispositions (potentials and propensities) in both physics and psychology reveals that they are commonly derivative dispositions, so called because they derive from other dispositions. Furthermore, when they act, they produce further propensities. Together, therefore, they appear to form discrete degrees within a structure of multiple generative levels. It is then constructively hypothesized that minds and physical nature are themselves discrete degrees within some more universal structure. This gives rise to an effective dualism of mind and nature, but one according to which they are still constantly related by causal connections. I suggest a few of the unified principles of operation of this more complicated but universal structure.

British Journal of Aesthetics 48 (April 2008), pp. 115-144. It is generally accepted that Picasso might have used a different canvas as the vehicle for his painting ‘Guernica’, and also that the artwork ‘Guernica’ itself necessarily represents a certain historical episode–rather than, say, a bowl of fruit. I argue that such a conjunctive acceptance entails a broadly propositional view of the nature of representational artworks. In addition, I argue–via a comprehensive examination of possible alternatives–that, perhaps surprisingly, there simply is no other available conjunctive view of the nature of representational artworks in general.

- Mark Schroeder, Expressivist Truth
In this paper I try to deploy the semantic framework of biforcated attitude semantics - the version of expressivist semantics developed in Being For - in pursuit of how to develop a rigorous deflationism about truth. I show in precise terms how an expressivist account of truth allows us to make good on Simon Blackburn’s promise to ‘earn the right’ to truth, and I suggest that it has an attractive payoff in its treatment of the liar and related paradoxes as well. Because the paper introduces biforcated attitude semantics directly, instead of arguing that it is the only promising way to develop expressivism, as Being For does, I hope that this paper also amounts to a perspicuous glimpse of what expressivist semantics can be like.
- —-, Hybrid Expressivism: Virtues and Vices
This paper is a survey of recent ‘hybrid’ approaches to metaethics, according to which moral sentences, in some sense or other, express both beliefs and desires. I try to show what kinds of theoretical issues come up at the different choice points we encounter in developing such a view, to raise some problems and explain where they come from, and to begin to get a sense for what the payoff of such views can be, and what they will need to do in order to earn that payoff.

- Michael Fara, Masked Abilities and Compatibilism
This paper offers an analysis of agential abilities in terms of dispositions. The analysis is shown to provide the resources to defend a version of the Principle of Alternate Possibilities against Frankfurt-style counterexamples. Although this principle is often taken to be congenial to incompatibilism about free action and determinism, the paper concludes by using the dispositional analysis of abilities to argue for compatibilism, and to show why the “master argument” for incompatibilism is unsound.
- —-, Knowability and the Capacity to Know
(PDF of penultimate draft; please don’t quote from or cite this version.) Forthcoming in Synthese. Generalizations of Fitch’s paradox of knowability motivate the thesis that in saying that a truth is knowable, or that it could be known, we do not mean that it is possible that it is known. Instead, I argue, claims about knowability express capacities to know. The paper concludes by explaining the requisite sense of “capacity” at work here, and by showing how the paradox of knowability and its generalizations are solved.

Here’s an update for today.
- Adrian Brasoveanu, Uniqueness Effects in Correlatives
paper, abstract, revised handout, original handoutto appear in the Proceedings of Sinn und Bedeutung 12 (Oslo, 2007). The paper argues that the variability of the uniqueness effects exhibited by Hindi and Romanian correlatives is due to their mixed referential and quantificational nature. The account involves an articulated notion of quantification, independently motivated by donkey anaphora and quantificational subordination and consisting of both (discourse) referential components and non-referential components (dynamic operators over plural info states). The variable uniqueness effects emerge out of the interaction between: (i) the semantics of wh-indefinites, singular anaphors and habitual morphology and (ii) the pragmatics of quantification, which allows for the selection of different levels of ‘zoom-in’ on the quantified-over objects.

Forthcoming, Studies in the History and Philosophy of Science Abstract: The epistemic problem of assessing the support that some evidence confers on a hypothesis is considered using an extended example from the history of meteorology. In this case, and presumably in others, the problem is to develop techniques of data analysis that will link the sort of evidence that can be collected to hypotheses of interest. This problem is solved by applying mathematical tools to structure the data and connect it to the competing hypotheses. I conclude that mathematical innovations provide crucial epistemic links between evidence and theories precisely because the evidence and theories are mathematically described.

under submission. This paper presents the progicnet programme. It proposes a general framework for probabilistic logic that can guide inference based on both logical and probabilistic input. After an introduction to the framework as such, it is illustrated by means of a toy example from psychometrics. It is shown that the framework can accommodate a number of approaches to probabilistic reasoning: Bayesian statistical inference, evidential probability, probabilistic argumentation, and objective Bayesianism. The framework thus provides insight into the relations between these approaches, it illustrates how the results of different approaches can be combined, and it provides a basis for doing efficient inference in each of the approaches.

In V. N. Huynh (ed.): Interval / Probabilistic Uncertainty and Non-Classical Logics, Advances in Soft Computing Series, Springer 2008, pp. 268-279. This paper proposes a common framework for various probabilistic logics. It consists of a set of uncertain premises with probabilities attached to them. This raises the question of the strength of a conclusion, but without imposing a particular semantics, no general solution is possible. The paper discusses several possible semantics by looking at it from the perspective of probabilistic argumentation.

- Luke Robinson, Right-Making and Other Morally Relevant Factors
One of the more fundamental questions raised by the generalism–particularism debate in ethics is just what a right-making factor (or reason) is. I contrast two possible conceptions of such factors and defend the second. The first understands right-making factors in terms of moral laws, and variants of it are advanced by writers on either side of the generalism–particularism debate. The second understands right-making factors in terms of right-making properties conceived dispositionally—i.e., as powers, capacities, etc. I defend the latter, dispositionalist conception on the basis of its ability to elucidate and explain various features that right-making factors are widely taken to have, including the ability to contribute to the overall moral status of an action without determining it. I also offer dispositionalist conceptions of other morally relevant factors, including defeaters, intensifiers, and disablers. And I deploy these conceptions to elucidate and defend moral holism (or the holism of the right-making relation).

- —-, Moral Holism, the Additive Fallacy, and the “Atomistic” Model
The “atomistic” model can model the intuitions that motivate both moral holism—the view that moral valence is variable—and Shelley Kagan’s claim that the additive fallacy is indeed a fallacy. This suggests that we can accept that the additive fallacy is, in fact, a fallacy without rejecting moral atomism; that we can reject both the additive model and the additive assumption without rejecting moral atomism; and that we can resist moral holism by simply allowing that the governing function is non-additive. Against all of this, I argue that the “atomistic” model is best seen as a mathematical model of moral holism; that if it is seen otherwise, its coherence is in doubt; and that even if it can be shown to be a coherent alternative to moral holism, the latter does a considerably better job of capturing the relevant intuitions. Taken together, these arguments show not only that the moral atomist may well be committed to both the additive model and the additive assumption, and hence to denying that the additive fallacy is a fallacy, but also that the “atomistic” model is of no use to moral atomists in resisting moral holism.

- David Nicolas, Mass nouns and plural logic
A dilemma put forward by Schein (1993) and Rayo (2002) suggests that, in order to characterize the semantics of plurals, we should not use predicate logic, but plural logic, a formal language whose terms may refer to several things at once. We show that a similar dilemma applies to mass nouns. If we use predicate logic and sets when characterizing their semantics, we arrive at a Russellian paradox. And if we use predicate logic and mereoogical ums, the semantics turns out to be too weak. We then develop an account where mass nouns are treated as non-singular terms. This semantics is faithful to the intuition that, if there are eight pieces of silverware on a table, the speaker refers to eight things at once when he says: “The silverware that is on the table comes from Italy.” We show that this account provides a satisfactory semantics for a wide range of sentences.
- Delia Graff Fara, Possibility Relative to a Sortal
This paper is an informal presentation of the ideas presented formally in (”Relative-Sameness Counterpart Theory” .Relative-sameness relations&emdash;such as being the same person as&emdash;are like David Lewis’s “counterpart” relations in the following respects: (i) they may hold over time or across worlds between objects that aren’t cross-time or cross-world identical (I propose), and (ii) there are a multiplicity of them, different ones of which may be variously invoked in different contexts. They differ from counterpart relations, however, in that they are weak equivalence relations (transitive, symmetric and weakly reflexive). The likenesses to counterpart relations make them suitable for an analysis of de-re temporal and modal predications. The difference renders the resulting counterpart theory immune to standard criticisms of Lewis’s Counterpart Theory (e.g., in Hazen 1979, and Fara and Williamson 2005). The use of sameness as opposed to similarity relations in the analysis of de-re temporal and modal predication renders the resulting truth conditions as statable in terms that proponents of Kripke’s identity-based analysis can accept.
