Live-blogging autour d'un workshop de philosophie de l'esprit sur le thème Révélation et humilité : "Chalmers introduced a division (exclusive but not exhaustive) of concepts into revelatory and humbling. Intuitively, revelatory concepts give you direct access to the intrinsic nature of the property they pick out, whereas humbling concepts do not. You could in principle have concepts of both kinds picking out the same property. Thus, someone (not Chalmers) might say that the concept of water is a humbling concept that picks out the same property that the revelatory concept of HOH picks out. The more rigorous analysis of these terms offered by Chalmers is this: a concept is revelatory just in case it picks out the same property in all possible world considered as actual; it is humbling if it doesn’t."

biblio. Reverse mathematics

Sur sa page personnelle Steven Simpson annonce la parution d'un volume collectif ("[September 20, 2005] Reverse Mathematics 2001 has finally appeared. It is Volume 21 in the ASL's book series Lecture Notes in Logic, X + 401 pages. You may order on-line from A. K. Peters, Ltd.") et la réédition prochaine de son classique de 1998, épuisé depuis un moment déjà ("On June 30, 2005 I submitted Subsystems of Second Order Arithmetic, Second Edition, to the Association for Symbolic Logic, for publication in their book series Perspectives in Logic. It was accepted on August 9, 2005.").
[Pour une présentation de la perspective philosophique et une introduction aux principaux résultats des "Reverse Mathematics" voir Partial Realizations of Hilbert's Program (une conférence de Simpson parue dans le JSL en 1988) et SOSOA Chapitre1 (par Simpson également, donc). Pour une discussion plus large de ces résultats et du sens à donner au programme de Hilbert (d'un auteur "extérieur" aux R.M.), voir par exemple le papier de Panu Raatikainen , Hilbert's Program Revisited[2003] (Synthese 137).]
