    Thucydides is well known for his fondness for abstract nominal phrases. As Joho shows in this book, these constructions often imply that people are passively exposed to events. Unlike Thucydides' predecessors, however, he anchors necessity not in the divine but in the constraints imposed by human nature.

    This title offers a new analysis of the metaphysical concepts of possibility and necessity, one that does not rely on any sort of 'possible worlds'. The analysis proceeds from an account of the notion of a physical object and from the positing of properties and relations. It is motivated by considerations about how we actually speak of and think of objects. The author discusses several closely related topics, including different purported varieties of possible worlds, the doctrine of 'essentialism', natural kind terms and alleged examples of necessity a posteriori

    In this systematic historical analysis, Nino Langiulli focuses on a key philosophical issue, possibility, as it is refracted through the thought of the Italian philosopher Nicola Abbagnano. The problem of possibility has been a central theme in the history of philosophy and is of fundamental importance to present-day thought. In his critical introduction to the essentials of Abbagnano's thought, Langiulli examines Abbagnano's attempt to raise possibility to a level of prime importance and investigates his understanding of existence. Langiulli offers a sustained exposition of and argument with the account of possibility in the major thinkers of the Western tradition--Plato, Aristotle, Kant, and Kierkegaard. He also makes pertinent comments on such philosophers as Diodorus Cronus, William of Ockham, Spinoza, Hobbes, and Hegel, as well as such logicians as De Morgan and Boole Nicola Abbagnano, who died in 1990, recently came to the attention of the general public as an influential teacher of the author Umberto Eco. Creator of a dictionary of philosophy and author of a multiple-volume history of Western philosophy, Abbagnano was the only philosopher, according to Langiulli, to argue that "to be is to be possible." Abbagnano's boldness and originality consist in connecting explicitly and essentially the concepts of possibility and existence. Even though the concept of probability and the discipline of statistics are grounded in the concept of possibility, philosophers throughout history have grappled with the problem of defining it. Possibility has been viewed by some as an empty concept, devoid of reality, and by others as reducible to actuality or necessity--concepts that are opposite to it. Existentialists, for example, want to define human existence in terms of possibility, yet they go on to describe it in terms of impossibility or necessity Langiulli analyzes and debates Abbagnano's treatment of necessity as secondary to possibility, and he addresses the philosopher's conversation with his predecessors as well as his European and American contemporaries

    Introduction -- Concrete entities -- Abstract entities -- Against possible worlds -- The core analysis -- Proper names -- Fictional names -- Natural kind terms

    "Possibility offers a new analysis of the metaphysical concepts of possibility and necessity, one that does not rely on any sort of "possible worlds." The analysis proceeds from an account of the notion of a physical object and from the positing of properties and relations. It is motivated by considerations about how we actually speak of and think of objects. Michael Jubien discusses several closely related topics, including different purported varieties of possible worlds, the doctrine of "essentialism," natural kind terms and alleged examples of necessity a posteriori. The book also offers a new theory of the functioning of proper names, both actual and fictional, and the discussion of natural kind terms and necessity a posteriori depends in part on this theory."--Jacket

    In this systematic historical analysis, Nino Langiulli focuses on a key philosophical issue, possibility, as it is refracted through the thought of the Italian philosopher Nicola Abbagnano. The problem of possibility has been a central theme in the history of philosophy and is of fundamental importance to present-day thought. In his critical introduction to the essentials of Abbagnano's thought, Langiulli examines Abbagnano's attempt to raise possibility to a level of prime importance and investigates his understanding of existence. Langiulli offers a sustained exposition of and argument with the account of possibility in the major thinkers of the Western tradition--Plato, Aristotle, Kant, and Kierkegaard. He also makes pertinent comments on such philosophers as Diodorus Cronus, William of Ockham, Spinoza, Hobbes, and Hegel, as well as such logicians as De Morgan and Boole Nicola Abbagnano, who died in 1990, recently came to the attention of the general public as an influential teacher of the author Umberto Eco. Creator of a dictionary of philosophy and author of a multiple-volume history of Western philosophy, Abbagnano was the only philosopher, according to Langiulli, to argue that "to be is to be possible." Abbagnano's boldness and originality consist in connecting explicitly and essentially the concepts of possibility and existence. Even though the concept of probability and the discipline of statistics are grounded in the concept of possibility, philosophers throughout history have grappled with the problem of defining it. Possibility has been viewed by some as an empty concept, devoid of reality, and by others as reducible to actuality or necessity--concepts that are opposite to it. Existentialists, for example, want to define human existence in terms of possibility, yet they go on to describe it in terms of impossibility or necessity Langiulli analyzes and debates Abbagnano's treatment of necessity as secondary to possibility, and he addresses the philosopher's conversation with his predecessors as well as his European and American contemporaries
