Fictional Truth

This chapter addresses the complaint that extreme intentionalism standardly forces the reader who engages in interpretation to posit private, or hidden, authorial intentions, for which she has little or no evidence. It is first argued that there are no automatic strategies of interpretation of fictional content: at every stage, whether or not a given interpretative strategy is to be appropriately applied depends on the presence of relevant authorial intention as a sanction. (This section includes a discussion, and rejection, of the views of David Lewis and Gregory Currie about fictional truth; a discussion of the relevance of genre to fictional content; and a consideration of the issue of unreliable narration for an intentionalist view.) The foregoing material on strategies of interpretation is then used to show that it is false to think of the extreme intentionalist as being committed to ‘hidden’ or ‘secret’ meanings in the ordinary case.

The Way

I argue that the debate concerning the nature of first-person moral judgment, namely, whether such moral judgments are inherently motivating (internalism) or whether moral judgments can be made in the absence of motivation (externalism), may be founded on a faulty assumption: that moral judgments form a distinct kind that must have some shared, essential features in regards to motivation to act. I argue that there is little reason to suppose that first-person moral judgments form a homogenous class in this respect by considering an ordinary case: student readers of Peter Singer’s “Famine, Affluence, and Morality”. Neither internalists nor externalists can provide a satisfying account as to why our students fail to act in this particular case, but are motivated to act by their moral judgments in most cases. I argue that the inability to provide a satisfying account is rooted in this shared assumption about the nature of moral judgments. Once we consider rejecting the notion that first-person moral decision- making forms a distinct kind in the way it is typically assumed, the internalist/externalist debate may be rendered moot.

Ordinary Case

The purpose of this paper is to describe certain peculiar results obtained in the genetics of two “giant” races of Primula sinensis . Cytological investigation has shown these giants, unlike the giant races already described,* to be in the tetraploid condition, that is to say, that whereas in ordinary Primulas the chromosomes are x (12) in the gametic and 2 x (24) in the somatic stage, in the tetraploid giants the chromosomes are 2 x (24) in the gametic and, as nearly as can be counted, 4 x (48) in the somatic cells. Nilsson-Ehle and East have shown that factors of similar property may be reduplicated in the same zygote (or gamete), with various peculiar numerical consequences not otherwise intelligible, notably the appearance in certain F 2 -families of such ratios as 15D : 1R, 63D : 1R, and so on, when in the ordinary case 3:1 would be expected. The occurrences to be described in part recall this phenomenon ; but, as will be seen, they are accompanied by others at first sight entirely paradoxical (as, for example, the fact that the ostensible recessive may throw the dominant), and the whole series may be regarded as of special significance in view of the association with the doubled condition of the cell-constituents. Moreover, in the tetraploid Primulas, the reduplication affects not merely the factors for isolated characters, but extends simultaneously to the factors for all the characters so far investigated.

Ordinary Case

We introduce new families of Hermite polynomials and of Bessel functions from a point of view involving the use of nonexponential generating functions. We study their relevant recurrence relations and show that they satisfy differential-difference equations which are isospectral to those of the ordinary case. We also indicate the usefulness of some of these new families.

Covering Groups

The aim of this work is to calculate the Fischer matrices for the covering groups of the Weyl group of type Bn and the generalized symmetric group. It is shown that the Fischer matrices are the same as those in the ordinary case for the classes of Sn which correspond to partitions with all parts odd. For the classes of Sn which correspond to partitions in which no part is repeated more than m times, the Fischer matrices are shown to be different from the ordinary case.

The Way

Suppose that $F/F^{+}$ is a CM extension of number fields in which the prime $p$ splits completely and every other prime is unramified. Fix a place $w|p$ of $F$. Suppose that $\overline{r}:\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{F}/F)\rightarrow \text{GL}_{3}(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_{p})$ is a continuous irreducible Galois representation such that $\overline{r}|_{\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{F}_{w}/F_{w})}$ is upper-triangular, maximally non-split, and generic. If $\overline{r}$ is automorphic, and some suitable technical conditions hold, we show that $\overline{r}|_{\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{F}_{w}/F_{w})}$ can be recovered from the $\text{GL}_{3}(F_{w})$-action on a space of mod $p$ automorphic forms on a compact unitary group. On the way we prove results about weights in Serre’s conjecture for $\overline{r}$, show the existence of an ordinary lifting of $\overline{r}$, and prove the freeness of certain Taylor–Wiles patched modules in this context. We also show the existence of many Galois representations $\overline{r}$ to which our main theorem applies.

Counter Argument

ABSTRACTThis paper is a rejoinder to Stanton Marlan’s article, ‘The absolute that is not absolute: an alchemical reflection on the caput mortuum, the dark other of logical light.’ It challenges mischaracterizations by Marlan of Giegerich’s contribution to analytical psychology, not on the usual level of debate and counter-argument, but through psychological ‘seeing-through’. Marlan’s assertion that Giegerich’s psychology as the discipline of interiority approach is ‘too pure [a psychology] to treat ordinary human beings in the consulting room’ is responded to by turning the tables and using Marlan’s account of having had to euthanize his dog as ordinary case material with which to demonstrate the merit and analytic acuity of Giegerich’s mode of interpretation.
