Constructing Practical Reasons
Our actions are informed by the consideration of reasons; reasons which constructivism suggests are not simply discovered, but made by us. This book examines this view, elaborating its basic idea into a fully-fledged account of practical reasons, making its theoretical commitments explicit, and defending it against well-known objections.
New Scholasticism Meets Analytic Philosophy
Recent decades have seen a revival of interest in Aristotelian and Scholastic thought, particularly among analytic philosophers. Neo-Aristotelians, Analytic Scholastics, and Analytical Thomists have made significant contributions to several fields within contemporary philosophy, including metaphysics, philosophy of mind and philosophy of science. This volume of new essays brings together some of the leading thinkers of this movement, to address such topics as materiality, causation, possibility, privation and dispositionality. The contributors are Rani Lill Anjum, Edward Feser, Uwe Meixner, Stephen Mumford, David Oderberg, Edmund Runggaldier and Erwin Tegtmeier.
Change, Substance, and Cause
Starting from our common experience of change, this book introduces the fundamental features of Aristotelian-Scholastic philosophy. After differentiating between the various types of change and motion, the author presents the concepts of act and potency, as well as form and matter. Further attention is given to the difference between substance and accident, and essence and existence. Finally, an overview of causality is given based on Aristotle’s doctrine of the four causes. This introductory course is aimed primarily at laypeople interested in philosophy and at high-school students beginning their studies of philosophy and the humanities. About the Author Rafael Hüntelmann, PhD is an author, publisher, and lecturer in philosophy. He is the co-editor of METAPHYSICA. International Journal for Ontology & Metaphysics. His most recent publications include Grundkurs Philosophie in six volumes, as well as the three-volume logic course Grundkurs klassische aristotelische Logik.

Through the publication of work in both German and English, the series aims to facilitate discussion between English and German-speaking practical philosophers.
Oxford Studies in Metaethics 13
Oxford Studies in Metaethics is the only publication devoted exclusively to original philosophical work in the foundations of ethics.

In Itinere
The volume describes a virtual tour of the cities in which Franz Brentano and his pupils worked and lived, with a reconstruction of the intellectual climate of their time. After the Introduction, the intellectual life of Wurzburg, Munich, Vienna, Prag, Lvov, Warsaw, Cambridge, Florence and Milan is presented and analyzed. The papers collected in this volume propose several answers to the following question: to what do we refer when we speak of Central European philosophy?. Interpretations of Central European philosophy have developed in at least two broad directions. An interpretation fashionable during the 1970s lumps specific philosophical achievements, especially those of Mach and Wittgen...
