内容説明

This is a study of events and their place in our language and thought. The author discusses what kind of item an event is, how the language of events works and how these two themes are interrelated. He argues that most of the supposedly metaphysical literature on events is really about semantics of their names, and that the true metaphysic of events - known by Leibniz and rediscovered by Jaegwon Kim - has not been universally accepted because it has been obscured by a false semantic theory.

内容説明

In this study of events and their place in our language and thought, Bennett propounds and defends views about what kind of item an event is, about how the language of events works, and about how these two themes are interrelated. He argues that most of the supposedly metaphysical literature on events is really about the semantics of their names, and that the true metaphysic of events - known by Leibniz and rediscovered by Jaegwon Kim - has not been universally accepted because it has been obscured by a false semantic theory.
