Résumé

This book consists of fifteen selected papers by one of America's most important and most influential philosophers First published from 1966 to 1980, with new postscripts added to eight of them, the papers deal with topics in ontology, the philosophy of mind, and the philosophy of language. Some recurring themes in the papers are : extreme realism about possible worlds and individuals ; exploitation of analogies between space, time, and modality ; materialism, defined with the aid of a theory of mental states as realizers of causal roles ; integration of formal semantics into a broader account of the use of language ; and refusal to begin with language in the analysis of thought and modality.
