Two chapters were newly written for this volume. The conceptual connections of the papers as chapter-contents are highlighted in the texts. For example, how the special feature of origin properties determine the modal status of sortal specifications; why the central role of explanation creates a need for positing individual essences on top of sortal ones; how the essentialist account of Cambridge changes compete with their mereological account; what the limits of mereology are in metaphysical applications; what the relevance of the Kantian or the Aristotelian conceptual inventories are for themes of current analytic metaphysics, such as the status of conceptual schemes, the scheme-content connection and its holistic reading, the question of the privileged namings of kind essences vs reference under different semantic guises; the metaphysical consequences of vagueness with multi-criteria predicates. Purporting to show the virtues of a modest form of essentialism, mainly with Aristotelian background, a chapter is dedicated to assessing the recent dispute between essentialism and the so-called modalist position.aType de ressource électronique : données textuelles et iconographiquesaMárta Ujvári40uhttps://www.editions-harmattan.fr/catalogue/couv/9782140494987r.jpg2Image de couverture40uhttps://www.harmatheque.com/downloadebook/9782140494987zAccès après authentification2Télécharger au format PDF40uhttps://www.harmatheque.com/readebook/9782140494987zAccès après authentification2Lire ce livre en ligne
