Current Garden Reading

Jorge Luis Borges

  • "Under the trees of England I meditated on this lost and perhaps mythical labyrinth. I imagined it untouched and perfect on the secret summit of some mountain; I imagined it drowned under rice paddies or beneath the sea; I imagined it infinite, made not only of eight-sided pavilions and of twisting paths but also of rivers, provinces and kingdoms. I thought of a maze of mazes, of a sinuous, ever growing maze which would take in both past and future and would somehow involve the stars."

Shameless self-promotion is the new modesty

In addition to the recent orgy of free will articles in Midwest Studies that Kip mentioned, the latest issue of Metaphilosophy features the symposium on Daniel Dennett's Freedom Evolves (or, as Al Mele suggests in his essay, Elbow Pad) that was presented in draft form on the papers blog a while back. The authors include Dennett, John Fischer, Al Mele, Tim O'Connor, and yours truly.

Not that anyone needs more free will reading at this point in the summer.

"Shameless self-promotion is the new modesty." Always the revisionist :)

Anothr way to combine self-promotion, modesty, and the free will problem: I (modestly) point out my “Free Will and the Mystery of Modesty”, APQ vol.40 (2003), pp.105-117.
