Themes

Posted on ..

Thanks to webmaster Julian, all episodes on the website are now marked by theme. You can click on the theme buttons to go right to the episodes that deal with philosophical issues that interest you, or for a list of all themes, click on the THEMES link at the bottom of the page. If you want to see a theme that is not on there yet, let me know.

Perhaps a theme on necessity

Perhaps a theme on necessity-contingency-impossibility:  as they apply to statements, concepts, beings and states-of affairs.  But it would  be quite a task to mine all the episodes to find the relevant ones.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually I have pretty much put the relevant episodes on that topic under "deteriminism": I know it's not the same thing but "modality" seemed too technical. Having said that, episodes on things like the necessity of knowledge wouldn't be included in that theme, so it isn't a perfect match...
