Self-Control in the Modern Provocation Defence
Self-Control，the Modern Provocation Defence，Richard Holton
2010/10/12
Most recent discussion of the provocation defence has focused on the objective test, and little attention has been paid to the subjective test. However, the subjective test provides a substantial cons...
In a recent paper Savas Tsohatzidis has provided a number of putative counterexamples to the well-attested Kartunnen-Vendler (K-V) thesis that the use of 'tell' with a wh-complement requires that the ...
What is the Role of the Self in Self-Deception?
Self-Deception，the self，Richard Holton，the Christian literature

Positivism，the Internal Point of View，Richard Holton

The concepts of justified, warranted, and epistemically rational belief, along with the notion of knowledge, form the core subject matter of epistemology. Despite their centrality, these concepts are ...
We often know that we are thinking, and what we are thinking about. Here ‘thinking’ is not supposed to be an umbrella term for cognition in general, but should be taken in roughly the sense of ‘a penn...
The “Content View”, in slogan form, is: “Perceptual experiences have representational content”. The first part of the paper explains why the Content View should be reformulated to remove any reference...
In the argument’s more recent and general dress, what is said to be conceivable/imaginable is that “zombies” exist (see, e.g., Chalmers 1996: 94-9), but let us concentrate on Argument K.
