Knowing from Words: Western and Indian Philosophical Analysis of Understanding and Testimony
The Moral Psychology of Revenge
The tendency and ability to take adequate revenge for an insult or injury inflicted in the past have been often glorified as part of a ‘just and honourable’ individual or communal character. This article argues against this old—and currently popular—belief that the act of revenge is justified and reasonable. The central flaw in the idea of revenge is that it is a futile attempt to remedy past suffering. The article shows how revenge cannot be def…

The Berkeleyan view that there is an abiding ego undergoing subjective states but no material objects for these states to focus on will be shown to be inconsistent. Equally incoherent, I shall argue, is…
