On Some Puzzling Features of Existential Discourse
Update: 2018-03-17
Description
Dolf Rami (Göttingen) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium (21 January, 2016) titled "On Some Puzzling Features of Existential Discourse". Abstract: Existence is a very puzzling notion that bewitched philosophers since the beginning of Western Philosophy. In this talk, I will compare the three most popular general views on existence and I will point out their main advantages and weaknesses. These are (a) the often so-called second-level view of existence, (b) the Meinongian view of existence and (c) the Parmendian view of existence. I will try to show that the best overall view of existence is a version of the Parmendian view of existence that makes use of negative free logic.
