  • Beautiful Performances by Morally Flawed Athletes

    Open AccessJohn HoltARTICLEPhilosophies2024

    Much has been written about the presumed interaction between moral and aesthetic properties in art, about whether moral flaws in a work or its artist can compromise the work’s aesthetic value. In the philosophy of sport, similarly, the beauty of an athlete’s performance may be undermined by moral flaws in the performance itself (e.g., in a case of cheating). Yet to be addressed, however, is a potential analogy between artists and athletes where p…

  • Nothing I Could Teach Him”

    Open AccessJohn HoltARTICLEDialogue2024Referencias: 5

    Steven Burns argues that rich works of art tend to yield best readings rather than ambiguous interpretations. This is no mere statistical claim. Rather, Burns holds that such richness makes ambiguity less likely or sustainable. As a champion of multiple interpretability, I criticize Burns’s account. Adding detail to an ambiguous work may not disambiguate it and may in fact increase the range of equally rewarding interpretations. Ambiguous works a…

  • Physical Philosophy

    Open AccessJohn HoltARTICLEPhilosophies2023

    While defining martial arts is not prerequisite to philosophizing about them, such a definition is desirable, helping us resolve disputes about the status of hard cases. At one extreme, Martínková and Parry argue that martial arts are distinguished from both close combat (as unsystematic) and combat sports (as competitive), and from warrior arts (as lethal) and martial paths (as spiritual). At the other extreme, mixed martial arts pundits and Bru…

  • Neuroaesthetics and Philosophy

    Open AccessJohn Holt, Jason HoltARTICLESAGE Open2013

    Some philosophers even recently have been skeptical about whether science can reveal anything significant about art. Although some scientists’ ventures into art theory have seemed to warrant such suspicions, including early speculative forays into neuroaesthetics, against such skepticism, the argument here is that neuroaesthetics is crucial for understanding aesthetic experience and ultimately art itself. Because certain core proposals of early v…

  • Caring for the Dead Ritually in Cambodia

    Open AccessJohn Holt, John Clifford HoltARTICLESoutheast Asian studies2012

    Buddhist conceptions of the after-life, and prescribed rites in relation to the dead, were modified adaptations of brahmanical patterns of religious culture in ancient India. In this article, I demonstrate how Buddhist conceptions, rites and dispositions have been sustained and transformed in a contemporary annual ritual of rising importance in Cambodia, pchum ben. I analyze phcum ben to determine its fundamentalimportance to the sustenance and c…

    Open AccessJohn Holt, Jason HoltARTICLEDialogue1999Referencias: 4

    Une partie des raisons invoquées par Wright en faveur de sa théorie «neutre» de la vérité tiennent à ce qu'il considère comme déficiente à plusieurs égards une approche apparentée proposée par Putnam. Je soutiens ici que ces déficiences affectent soit les deux doctrines, soit ni l'une ni l'autre, mais que celle de Wright est néanmoins supérieure. À mettre ensemble l'explication du prédicat de vérité offerte par Putnam et l'extension qu'il entend …

  • Changes in the espoused values of Australian organizations 1986—1990

    Open AccessBoris Kabanoff, John Holt et al.ARTICLEJournal of Organizational Behavior1996Referencias: 8

    We compared the frequency with which 85 Australian organizations espoused nine values (authority, leadership, teamwork, commitment, rewards, normative, participation, performance and affiliation) in 1986–1988 and 1989–1990 through a content analysis of annual reports, internal magazines, and mission statements. We studied value changes both by comparing the frequency of references to single values in the two periods and the frequency with which f…

    John Holt (1841-1915) was a successful British merchant who made several voyages to West Africa during his lifetime to establish business and trade in the era of British Imperialism.

    Open AccessJohn Holt, John L Holt et al.ARTICLEAustralian Psychologist1989Citada por: 2Referencias: 9

    Over recent years the cognitive behavioural approach to therapy has become important in the management and treatment of emotional dysfunction. However, the therapeutic efficacy of cognitive behaviour therapy and the validity of its underlying assumptions have been called into question by recent research. The wide disparity between the theoretical base of cognitive behaviour therapy practitioners on the one hand, and their clinical strategies on t…
