    In Crazy Water: Six Fictions, Lori Baker pushes the boundaries between truth and reality with curious, tragi-comic results. The imagination is Baker's terrain, and in these stories, pleasant suburban childhoods, family drives, seaside vacations, and an academic's quest for tenure all are strangely warped, yet nonetheless still mirror a world we thought we knew. In these brief pages, boys become dogs, students hide in the molluscan places, and mothers do their best to rescind their unsatisfying children. "I say things smugly as if I understand them, muses one of Baker's narrators. Indeed, characters and readers alike are undermined in these deft and quirky fictions. Exposing and imploding all of our expectations, Baker shows us how menacing (and funny) the apparently ordinary can be

    According to Deborah Tollefsen, from the analytic perspective called "interpretivism", there is a reasonable way in which groups can be said to have mental states. She bases her argument on the every-day use of language, where people speak as if groups have states such as intentions, desires and wishes. Such propositional attitudes form the basis of any account of truth-conditional semantics, the rules by which people grasp the conditions under which an utterance is true. If groups (abstract units of people) have mental states, perhaps superhuman agents have them too. One argument that may contradict this premise is one that says that, whereas groups exist, superhuman agents do not. However, if groups exist on the basis of normative narratives about them and the institutionalized actions they carry out in the world, the same can be said for superhuman agents. They are like legal fictions: fictional but real. Superhuman agents are fictional and real in a similar sense as groups.1

    There are ghosts. At least, in "Hamlet" there are. This is an example of a fictional truth, of something true in a fiction. Or so it seems. For, once we broaden our view to all kinds and realms of fiction our ordinary notions are challenged, and intriguing philosophical questions arise. Are there really any fictional truths? How can they be determined? Is everything just interpretation? Can anything be fictional? Could you be part of a fiction? Et cetera. The philosophical literature on fiction typically focusses on the semantics of fictional discourse and the ontology of fictional objects. In contrast, this study explores the nature of fictional truth by analyzing its conceptual structure and by unfolding some of its most important conceptual connections. After reviewing the field and identifying core elements that any theory of fictional truth must accommodate Christian Folde investigates several interrelated issues central to the on-going debates. Building on a clear account of fictional content and a wealth of examples the author offers novel solutions to various problems at the intersection of fictional truth, interpretation, and narration. The book thereby makes contributions to aesthetics, metaphysics and literary theory, among other things, and is thus both of philosophical and interdisciplinary value

    This article discussed the question ‘Does God speak through the language of mathematics?’ For centuries, mathematicians with different religious backgrounds would have answered this question in the affirmative. Due to changes in mathematics from the 19th century onwards, this question cannot be answered as easily as it used to be. If one regards mathematical concepts as creations of the human mind, it is difficult to argue that mathematical formulae exist in a divine mind. The article argued that there were traces of the divine in mathematics. Six kinds of traces were explained: (1) the existence of indisputable truth, (2) the existence of beauty, (3) the importance of community, (4) rational speaking about infinity, (5) the discovery that speaking about unseen and abstract objects is reasonable and (6) the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics. In practice, traces (1), (2) and (6) are probably the most convincing. Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: This article is very much interdisciplinary as it combines mathematics and theology, especially the philosophy of mathematics and systematic theology.

    The differences between mainstream and 'heterodox' theories and policies have become increasingly blurred, and this dynamic has also affected heterodox analyses of development. Being trapped by the primacy of the statistics-based methodological imperative, much heterodox thinking on development does not distinguish itself from the mainstream and its abandonment of reflection on the theoretical causalities that underlie policies. In this context, a conceptual framework is elaborated that focuses on the relationships between theory and policy, which allows for the argument that differences exist between heterodox and mainstream stances. Indeed, there is no direct translation between theory and policy. The criterion of validity of theory is truth. In contrast, a policymaker's domain is action, and the criterion of validity is the efficiency of the policy given its goals, as well as that of justification. The fact that a policymaker is indifferent to the truth (or falsehood) of a theoretical assumption is shown via the example of the austerity reform programmes of international financial institutions implemented in SubSaharan Africa. The 2020 pandemic is a 'natural experiment' showing that governments and international agencies can discard overnight the theories that have previously demonstrated the truth of the causalities underlying austerity policies and devise huge financial support, hence simultaneously showing that policymakers do not believe that these theories are true. If rich economies are threatened by a massive shock, policies manifest their disconnection from theories that have been previously imposed as 'true', notably upon developing economies, this 'truth' being the justification for conditional lending and an element of policy efficiency. This example delineates the specificity of heterodox reflections on development. Attitudes vis-à-vis truth and the relationships between theory and policy are in fact ethical attitudes: deontological attitudes (as opposed to utilitarianism) characterise heterodox stances, i.e., the consequences of policies are evaluated in terms of norms.

    In this paper, I offer an analysis of evil in Friedrich W. J. Schelling’s Philosophische Untersuchungen über das Wesen der menschlichen Freiheit (1809). Schelling develops an account of the sui-genesis of God out of the two principles. These principles are 1) the dark ground (dunkler Grund) that belongs to God and 2) the self-revelation of God, who actualizes the dark ground, which grounds God antecedently. These two principles also contain in themselves the possibility and the intelligibility of the human world. In order to elucidate the ontological account of the possibility of evil in Schelling, I turn to Martin Heidegger’s analyses of Schelling’s Freiheitsschrift and especially to Heidegger’s account of self-will (Eigenwille) and put these analyses in conversation with Heidegger’s own thinking about αλήθεια. I establish a conceptual affinity between Schelling’s presentation of the dark ground, which for him is the ground of selfhood, and Heidegger’s insights into the prioricity of concealment (Verborgenheit).

    Abstract Despite Franz Rosenzweig’s unequivocal condemnation of Gershom Scholem, his own view of the world and the possibility of human redemption therein is in some respect very close to the nihilistic sensibility and its gnostic underpinning. Although Rosenzweig obviously did not consider himself either a nihilist or a gnostic, the latter term can well be applied even to Rosenzweig’s mature speculation in The Star of Redemption and other writings from the 1920s. In spite of his initial rejection of negative theology in the Star , the swerve of Rosenzweig’s path winds its way to an apophasis of the apophasis, a turn that is encapsulated in the astounding statement, “That God is nothing becomes just as much a figurative sentence as the other one, that he is truth.”

    Widerspruch gegen Konsens dient der Durchsetzung von Interessen, dem ästhetischen Vergnügen und der Verbreitung der Wahrheit. Der Band wirft Schlaglichter auf die Geschichte einer vergessenen Schlüsselkategorie von der Klassischen Rhetorik bis zur Romantik.Das Phänomen antikonsensualer Rede wird anhand des Begriffs der Paradoxie untersucht, der heute zumeist den logischen Widerspruch meint, im traditionellen Verständnis aber eine Rede oder eine These gegen (gr. pará) eine allgemeine Meinung (gr. dóxa) bezeichnet hat. Dabei werden verschiedene Praktiken antikonsensualer Rede nach ihrer Zwecksetzung und ihrer Formgebung unterschieden, die ihrerseits darauf hinweisen, in welchem Verhältnis Mensch, Sprache und Wahrheit jeweils gesehen werden. So wird erstmals ein Bogen von sophistischen Schaureden über moralphilosophische Lehren der Antike und der Renaissance bis hin zu den epochemachenden Aufwertungen des untersuchten Phänomens in Aufklärung und Frühromantik geschlagen.

    Anhand uneindeutiger literarischer Texte wird demonstriert, wie jeweilige Wirklichkeiten bzw. Wahrheiten hergestellt werden: durch die Zuordnung einer Narration zu einem Genre, durch Konvention oder durch Regeln des Diskurses. Eine Diskussion des Genrebegriffs weist dessen Schwäche für ein Verständnis psychologisch relevanter Erzählungen auf. Besser tauglich scheint Wittgensteins Regelbegriff, von dem eine Brücke gefunden werden kann zu Foucaults Konzept des regelgeleiteten Diskurses, mit dem das Wirken heteronomer Macht in narrativen Konstruktionen deutlich werden kann.

    "Achmat Dangor's Roman Bitter Fruit (2001) - im Jahr 2004 für den prestigeträchtigen Man-Booker-Preis nominiert - ist eines von mehreren wichtigen literarischen Werken, die sich mit den Unzulänglichkeiten der südafrikanischen Wahrheits- und Versöhnungskommission (Truth and Reconciliation Commission, TRC) befassen und den noch nicht abgeschlossenen Wandlungsprozess Südafrikas heftig kritisieren. Der Autor dieses Beitrags zeigt an zwei wesentlichen inhaltlichen Strängen, wie der Roman Dangors die Arbeit der TRC infrage stellt: Erstens greift schon die Handlung des Romans die Konfliktverarbeitungsstrategie der Kommission auf, die zu eindeutig auf den Ansatz des 'Vergebens und Vergessens' gesetzt hat, der als Mittel zur Versöhnung ungeeignet ist und von daher grundsätzlich falsch war. Zweitens stellt der Roman das Projekt der nationalen Versöhnung insgesamt als Mission dar, die nicht Gerechtigkeit geschaffen, sondern vielmehr etlichen Opfern von Verbrechen der Apartheid Gerechtigkeit verweigert hat. Der Autor präsentiert den literarischen Text Dangors nicht als eindimensionalen Ausdruck einer komplexen sozialen Realität, sondern rückt die konkreten und vorstellbaren Möglichkeiten in den Vordergrund, die in dieser wirklichkeitsnahen Erzählung angeboten werden, um mit den Nachwirkungen des massiven sozialen Unrechts der Apartheid umzugehen." (Autorenreferat) ; "Achmat Dangor's novel Bitter Fruit (2001), nominated for the prestigious Man Booker Prize in 2004, is one of several important works of fiction that comment on the imperfections of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), offering a polemical critique of South Africa's on-going transition. In this article, the author examines two significant ways in which Dangor's novel questions the work of the TRC. First, he posits that the story represents the TRC's model of transitional justice as being too determined by a 'forgive and forget' approach that is inadequate as a means of providing reconciliation and thus fundamentally flawed. Second, he argues that, ...
