With the improvement and growth of instructional informatisation, the contradiction between the open supply of academic resources, information expression, and mental property safety is turning into greater acute. Remedying the relationship between the two is very necessary for the overall performance of records expression of academic assets and the advent of true surroundings for mental property protection. The safety of mental property rights is to shield the rights and pursuits of know-how owners, defend the strength of information producers to produce knowledge, and defend the supply of academic sources sharing. The data expression and protection of intellectual property education resources based on machine learning is a kind of protection tool for the intellectual property of education resources developed using the characteristics of automation, real-time monitoring, and growth of machine learning. It can prevent web crawlers from harming e-commerce websites, prevent them from stealing the intellectual property of e-commerce websites, and analyse web crawlers that visit websites to prevent important website data from being stolen by them. From this point of view, based on the relationship between the fact expression of instructional sources and the safety of mental property rights, this paper advocates to promote the records expression and safety of mental property rights of academic sources from a couple of perspectives.

Literary experiments in Trecento Italy share with the Canterbury Tales the notion that we might read texts in order to recover the thought behind them. But what does it mean for a reader to seek out a mental property in inanimate matter? Statius’ Thebaid offers one way for medieval authors to work through this question, for it depicts such a reader in Antigone, who perceives her brothers’ minds animating the flames of their funeral pyre. This chapter follows the figure of the lady at the pyre from the Thebaid to the Teseida and the Knight’s Tale. It argues that such reading practices emerge as self-effacing, prefiguring the literary critical notion of “the reader.” And it suggests that Chaucer connects such practices of self-effacing reading with both civilization and political control.

The article reveals the concept, the essence of the process of perception as a mental property; the specifics of the development of perception in children of preschool age is considered. The phenomenon of artistic perception as the highest form of development of perception of older preschoolers is analyzed.

An adequate solution to the problem of mental causation should deliver not just the efficacy of mental properties, but the efficacy of mental properties as such, of mentality in its own right. But this appears to block an identity solution from the outset. Any property that’s both mental and physical, the argument goes, has a dual nature, and this just reintroduces the problem of mental causation, now framed in terms of these two natures. But a powers ontology promises to save the identity theory, at least from this problem. Such an ontology identifies a mental property’s mental and physical “natures” with just the property itself. A mental property is, at once, both wholly mental and wholly physical, so that to causally engage the physical nature of a mental property is to engage its mental nature as well.

Physicalism is an ontological doctrine according to which everything in the world is physical in the last instance. This is usually interpreted as a claim that every non-physical, most notably every mental property can either be reduced to some physical property or shown to supervene on it. The main obstacle in an attempt to formulate physicalism properly is Hempel?s dilemma, and the most promising strategy of taking this dilemma is based on the argument from causal closure of physics. After analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of this approach, I argue that it is highly controversial and thus unable to support a strong ontological commitment.

Far from denying the importance of social contexts, a commitment to the existence of universal, human, mental properties deepens our understanding of such contexts by directing our attention to how they interact with such properties. One universal mental property appears to be the cognitively central role of metaphor. The study of the surface, linguistic or otherwise, manifestations of conceptual metaphor is important for its interaction with specific contexts. Allegory is one such surface manifestation. The study of western allegory should provide important insights into the roles of conceptual metaphor in western cultures. The concept of allegory as a sharply differentiated category dates from the late 18th century. The earlier rhetorical tradition saw allegory, correctly, as part of the natural continuum of metaphorical expression. The study of allegory as a discourse form reveals both a set of universal pragmatic constraints and the way in which these constraints are exploited by specific contexts to produce unique generic constructs such as that of Prudentian allegory.

I examine how a cognitive archaeology may best be advanced by focusing on Intentionality, the mental property that acts as the causal interface in the human-world interaction. I call this approach symbolic pragmatics. The argument is that, through style as the symbolic medium, material culture is endowed by its users with a form of derived Intentionality that is expressively imposed on it in the moment of usage. The central heuristic is the notion of the legal warrant as a pragmatic symbol that transforms behavioral interventions into the types of social activities (intended) they are. In the same way, material cultural style symbolically endows its users with pragmatic or action-constitutive powers that transform their material interventions into the social activities they (intend) are. I apply the warranting model to interpreting the Old Copper Culture Complex, arguing that its copper/stone duality manifests a structuring of the material activities of this society into two complementary water and land ecological spheres.

This paper examines Richard Swinburne's definitions of ‘mental property’ and ‘physical property’. After some preliminary tidying up (Section 1), the paper introduces eight putative counter-examples to Swinburne's definitions (Section 2). The paper then considers amendments to Swinburne's account of ‘mental property’ (Section 3) and ‘physical property’ (Section 4) which deal with these counter-examples. Finally, the paper closes with some brief remarks about the metaphysics of properties (Appendix). Along the way, the paper provides various reasons for thinking that Swinburne's definitions are hardly likely to be acceptable to non-theists.

Abstract Our working assumption reads: Every mental property exhibited by a natural system can be exhibited by an artificial system, at least in principle. Is this true? The paper is in two parts. The first part is explicative: What do we mean by ‘natural’ or by ‘artificial’? When are we ready to ascribe thinking to a system? We show that sometimes behavior is enough, sometimes underlying mechanisms are decisive. We study the difference between simulation and realization of a property and the kinds of explanation used in the philosophy of mind. The second part is argumentative. We collect and discuss positive arguments for and critical arguments against the working hypothesis. No decisive counterargument is found
