Diabolical devil’s advocates and the weaponization of illocutionary force
A standing presumption in the literature is that devil’s advocacy is an inherently beneficial argumentative move; and that those who take on this role in conversation are paradigms of argumentative virtue. Outside academic circles, however, devil’s advocacy has acquired something of a notorious reputation: real-world conversations are rife with self-proclaimed devil’s advocates who are anything but virtuous. Motivated by this observation, in this…
Our Epistemic Duties in Scenarios of Vaccine Mistrust
What, if anything, should we do when someone says they don’t believe in anthropogenic climate change? Or that they worry that a COVID-19 vaccine might be dangerous? We argue that in general, we face an epistemic duty to object to such assertions, qua instances of science denial and science sceptical discourse, respectively. Our argument builds on recent discussions in social epistemology, specifically surrounding the idea that we ought to speak u…
Simplicity of what? A case study from generative linguistics
The Minimalist Program in generative linguistics is predicated on the idea that simplicity is a defining property of the human language faculty, on the one hand; on the other, a central aim of linguistic theorising. Worryingly, however, justifications for either claim are hard to come by in the literature. We sketch a proposal that would allow for both shortcomings to be addressed, and that furthermore honours the program’s declared commitment to…
Podem as Cláusulas Com Sujeito Denotar Propriedades? O Problema Dos Sujeitos Controlados Na Perspectiva Da Gramática Categorial
Este artigo tem por objetivo avançar uma análise das estruturas de controle com sujeito lexical no marco da Gramática Categorial. Para tal efeito, assumimos os combinadores G e Z propostos em JACOBSON (1996, 1999, 2000 e 2003) no estudo do fenômeno de ligamento pronominal realizado no marco da Gramática Categorial Combinatória. Comparamos nossa proposta categorial com a análise gerativista das estruturas de controle de LANDAU (2014). Mostramos qu…
