    Abstract: Nature and Necessity: An Essay in Physical Ontology presents genuinely new solutions to some salient problems in metaphysics. Fisk provides a new argument, based on the notion of conditional probability, for the claim that induction presupposes necessary connections. After devising an ontology of physical individuals to provide an objective basis for necessary connections, he uses this ontology to solve problems about relations, action, time, capacities, and events

    Abstract: Les disciplines philosophiques et scientifiques, les doctrines de la culture en arrivent au moment où certaines mises au point, certaines réflexions s'avèrent nécessaires. Elles s'interrogent volontiers sur leurs démarches et leurs méthodes. Un examen qui porte sur leurs instruments fondamentaux de communication : sur les signes eux-mêmes, sur l'aspect sémantique ou symbolique des propositions qu'elles formulent, touchant tel ou tel des domaines qu'elles traitent. Le problème des langages se trouve, implicitement ou explicitement, au cœur des réflexions contemporaines. D'où cet ouvrage qui réunit un ensemble de témoignages, venant de chercheurs très diversement orientés, et qui ne répondent pas à une direction concertée à l'avance. Chacun, dans sa ligne de recherches, fait part des problèmes qui se posent à lui, marquant dans son domaine le passage du langage de son enseignement ou de sa recherche vers les questions qui se posent sur le langage lui-même. Ces recherches s'inscrivent dans une problématique actuelle, pour autant qu'une précision sur le sens et le contenu du savoir s'accompagne d'une précision concernant ses formes

    Abstract: From Sung times, and throughout the Ming period, one of the dominant philosophies of China had been a dualistic rationalism thought to be firmly grounded on the classics. Tai Chen (1723-1777) was a scholar and philosopher during the Ch'ing period- a time when China produced few philosophic thinkers. He was the greatest of these, and his views are embodied chiefly in Yuan Shan and in Meng Tzu txu-yi shu-cheng. In place of the prevailing Sung dualism, Tai Chen propounded a rationalistic monism seldom before insinuated in a Chinese philosophy. He declines to accept current dogmas and preferred to seek his own truths. His commentaries opposed the time-honored interpretations of Chu Hsi, and he discredited them on purely philosophical grounds. But with few disciples to carry on his teachings, he was virtually forgotten or ignored in China for more than a hundred years after his death. It was not until early in the present century- with China under the pressures of Western aggression and internal disorders-that Tai Chen's nearness to Western thought was rediscovered and his important role in the history of philosophy recognized. Curiously, this first of China's Western-oriented philosophers even today remains little known in the West and his major writings largely untranslated
