Product Description

This volume features essays about and by Paul Benacerraf, whose ideas have circulated in the philosophical community since the early nineteen sixties, shaping key areas in the philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of language, the philosophy of logic, and epistemology. The book started as a workshop held in Paris at the Collge de France in May 2012 with the participation of Paul Benacerraf. The introduction addresses the methodological point of the legitimate use of so-called Princess Margaret Premises in drawing philosophical conclusions from Gdels first incompleteness theorem. The book is then divided into three sections. The first is devoted to an assessment of the improved version of the original dilemma of Mathematical Truth due to Hartry Field: the challenge to the platonist is now to explain the reliability of our mathematical beliefs given the very subject matter of mathematics, either pure or applied. The second addresses the issue of the ontological status ofnumbers: Freges logicism, fictionalism, structuralism, and Bourbakis theory of structures are called up for an appraisal of Benacerrafs negative conclusions of What Numbers Could Not Be. The third is devoted to supertasks and bears witness to the unique standing of Benacerrafs first publication: Tasks, Super-Tasks, and Modern Eleatics in debates on Zenos paradox and associated paradoxes, infinitary mathematics, and constructivism and finitism in the philosophy of mathematics. Two yet unpublished essays by Benacerraf have been included in the volume: an early version of Mathematical Truth from 1968 and an essay on What Numbers Could Not Be from the mid 1970s. A complete chronological bibliography of Benacerrafs work to 2016 is provided. Essays by Jody Azzouni, Paul Benacerraf, Justin Clarke-Doane, Sbastien Gandon, Brice Halimi, Jon Prez Laraudogoitia, Mary Leng, Antonio Len-Snchez and Ana C. Len-Meja, Marco Panza, Fabrice Pataut, Philippe de Rouilhan, Andrea Sereni, and Stewart Shapiro.
