Zeno of Elea’s Arguments Against the One
According to the orthodox interpretation of Zeno’s plurality paradoxes defended by Platonists, these arguments indirectly defend Parmenidean monism by showing that things are not many. But Simplicius, and the various other orthodox interpreters whom he discusses, were aware of and attempted to undermine competing ‘heterodox’ interpretations, which were prominent in the Peripatetic tradition, according to which some of Zeno’s arguments pose a thre…
Rational Powers and Knowledge of Counterparts in Aristotle
Some contemporary philosophers in the Aristotelian tradition contend that agents differ from non-agents in that the former possess and exercise two-way causal powers. 1 According to this distinction, non-agents possess powers that have only one type of manifestation. The powers of agents, by contrast, are manifested in two distinct and opposed ways. 2 In developing this account, two-way powers theorists explicitly draw on Aristotle’s distinction …

Such “protreptics”—attempts to exhort (protrepein) a person to philosophize—might reasonably and often have been understood as a marginal facet of a philosopher’s activity. However, this ambitious and wide-ranging study attempts to recover protreptic as a central form of philosophical discourse, treating it as a gen…

In this paper, I evaluate the possibility of convergence between animal welfare and environmental ethics. By surveying the most prominent views within each of these respective camps, I argue that animal welfare ethics and ecological theories in environmental ethics are incommensurable in virtue of their respective individualistic and holistic value theories. I conclude by arguing that this conceptual clarification allows us to see that animal wel…
