On Casati’s Dialethic Interpretation of Heidegger
1. Heidegger and the Contradiction of Being: An Analytic Interpretation of the Late Heidegger (henceforth: HCB) is an intriguing systematic defense of the claim that Heidegger embraced dialethism

Précis of The Fragmentation of Being
Author meets critics
Eklund’s book is very rich, and I have enjoyed thinking through the profound thoughts expressed therein. The primary goal of Eklund’s book is to explore underexplored metaethical questions and theo
Nicholas Stang’s Kant’s Modal Metaphysics
In this critical review, I focus on two things. First, I respond to Stang’s interpretation of Descartes, according to which Descartes’ endorsement of his ontological argument commits him to possibilism , the doctrine that there are, or at least could be, non-existent individuals. My response consists in presenting a version of Descartes’ argument the acceptance of which does not require the acceptance of possibilism. The second thing I focus on i…
Teleological Suspensions In Fear and Trembling
Normative Accounts of Fundamentality
The Fragmentation of Being
This book attempts to answer some of the most fundamental questions in ontology. There are many kinds of beings but are there also many kinds of being? The world contains a variety of objects, each of which, let us provisionally assume, exists, but do some objects exist in different ways? Do some objects enjoy more being or existence than other objects? Are there different ways in which one object might enjoy more being than another? Most contemp…

Heidegger's Metaphysics of Material Beings
Trenton Merricks’ Truth and Ontology
A Return to the Analogy of Being
Parts and Wholes
Philosophical questions concerning parts and wholes have received a tremendous amount of the attention of contemporary analytic metaphysicians. In what follows, I discuss some of the central questions. The questions to be discussed are: how general is parthood? Are there different kinds of parthood or ways to be a part? Can two things be composed of the same parts? When does composition occur? Can material objects gain or lose parts? What is the …
Extended Simples and Qualitative Heterogeneity
The problem of qualitative heterogeneity is to explain how an extended simple can enjoy qualitative variation across its spatial or temporal axes, given that it lacks both spatial and temporal parts. I discuss how friends of extended simples should address the problem of qualitative heterogeneity. I present a series of arguments designed to show that rather than appealing to fundamental distributional properties one should appeal to tiny and shor…
