Search the Garden

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."

« Surveying the Sounds of Freedom | Main | So a mysterianist and a semicompatibilist walk into a bar . . . »

For your reading pleasure

In case you need more reading:

In the current issue of Ethics, see our own John Fischer on "Punishment and Desert" (requires a subscription). Also in that same issue, James Lenman on "Contractualism and Free Will"

As ususual, the current issue of Phil Studies is exploding with Gardener-produced or Gardener-relevant pieces: Saul Smilansky on Control, Desert, and Justice, Eddy Nahmias on "Close Calls and the Confident Agent", as well as an article on doxastic voluntarism and an article on temptation and deliberation by Chrisoula Andreou.

See also a recent issue of JPhil for a couple of free will articles (VOLUME CIII, NUMBER 4
April 2006): Widerker on "Libertarianism and the Philosophical Significance of Frankfurt Scenarios" and Marius Usher on "Control, Choice, and the Convergence/Divergence Dynamics: A Compatibilistic Probabilistic Theory of Free Will."

As usual, please feel free to add additional recently published articles via comments— I'm sure there is lots of great stuff I've missed.

See also the current J Phil for an interesting article by Haji and Mckenna, a follow up to another recent J Phil article by Haji and McKenna--a reply to David Palmer's piece on Frankfurt-style examples.

Gardeners Rule!!

Also, er... er.... er... ahem... er, don't forget that the wonderful journal, the Journal of Ethics, is celebrating its 10th anniversary with three special issues (including issues in honor of Joel Feinberg and Martha Nussbaum). In my humble and unbiassed opinion, this journal is great, and this is a milestone that is worth celebrating. Congratulations to J. Angelo Corlett for his leadership with this journal.
