Leo Strauss on Plato’s Euthyphro
Did Descartes Read Sextus’s Outlines of Pyrrhonism ?” A “Sceptical” Response
The Meaning of "Olympica" in Descartes
An article of mine in The Heythrop Journal a decade ago discussed Descartes’ “Olympica” dream-sequence, the original of which is lost, but the details of which are preserved in a French version in
The Gatekeeper
Nietzsche's Posthuman Political Vision
In repeated rejections of the reality of free will, agency, self-consciousness and moral accountability, Nietzsche espouses views consistent with “cosmic” determinism. The salient features of determinism all follow from Nietzsche’s own view of organic reality as will-to-power. His position denies also the substance of any ascription of merit or blame, hence any stable ground for the ranking of human ends or types. The crises Nietzsche forecasts, …

Family Carers as Partners in Implementing Integrated Care
Crucial to the success of integrated care networks is the role of family carers in their creation (Leichsenring K. 2004). When networks are poorly integrated, carers suffer; they are often invisible to the system, and have their needs neglected or ignored. The resulting breakdown in care at home increases pressure on formal services (Binstock et al. 1996). A dual challenge now exists EU-wide: to support informal or family carers through integrati…
"Machiavellian" Instruction
Hesiod’s fable (ainos) of the hawk and the nightingale, addressed to kings, notoriously has no moral. Its depiction of a hawk carrying off a nightingale, preaching the futility of either resistance or pleading, appears to communicate the counsel, commonly designated as “Machiavellian,” that a ruler must know how to imitate a beast as well as a man. Such instruction—which advises that unjust actions are justifiable and necessary for a ruler—is cle…
Hesiod’s Works and Days
On the Freudian Motifs in Beckett’s ‘First Love’
I. A reader of Beckett’s “First Love” who is somewhat familiar with the Freudian oeuvre will note immediately that the story plays with or deploys a number of Freudian psychoanalytic motifs, either borrowed from Freud’s general studies or imported directly from specific case histories. In what follows, we wish to set out some of
Hume's Correlationism
The article argues that Meillassoux's 'After Finitude' underestimates the nature and profundity of Hume's sceptical challenge; it neglects the fact that Hume's scepticism concerns final causes (and agrees fundamentally with Bacon and Descartes in this respect), and that in Hume even the operations of reason do not furnish entirely a priori knowledge. We contend that Hume himself institutes a form of correlationism (which in part showed Kant the w…
On the “Hiccuping Episode” in Plato’s Symposium
This article argues for a design in the famous episode of Aristophanes’s hiccups in the Symposium ; its purpose is, via the interactions it causes, to contrive the skipping of Aristodemus in the order of speeches. A careful reading of these interactions reveals a different order of seating than that usually assumed, which shows us how Aristodemus comes to be overlooked. We further enquire as to the implications of this ‘missing’ of the person who…
