Summary note

This volume responds to and reassesses the work of Hector-Neri Castañeda (1924-1991). The essays collected here, written by his students, followers, and opponents, examine Castañeda's seminal views on deontic logic, metaethics, indedicality, praticitions, fictions, and metaphysics, utilizing the critical viewpoint afforded by time, as well as new data, to offer insights on his theories and methodology.

Notes

"Part of the contributions to the Hector's day in Urbino Italy, in the summer of 2011, remembering the 20th anniversary of H-NC's death"--Page 1.
