The Primacy of Metaphysics
Peacocke, Christopher (Johnsonian Professor of Philosophy / Honorary Fellow, Johnsonian Professor of Philosophy / Honorary Fellow, Columbia University / Institute of Philosophy, University of London)
What is the relation between the nature of the things you think about, and the ways you think about them? Christopher Peacocke argues that meaning is never prior to metaphysics - to the nature of the world. He shows that this view holds for a wide range of topics, including magnitudes, time, the self, and abstract objects such as numbers.
