This book assembles an international team of scholars to move forward the study of Plato’s conception of time, to ��nd fresh insights for interpreting his cosmology, and to reimagine the Platonic tradition. How can one Jewish thinker’s natural law theory explain morality, divine commandments, and human ordinances; and how do we assess the consistency of that theory when it is mentioned in connection with such diverse areas? The answer lies in the changing meaning of reason in Novak’s writings.

The book discusses citizenship in the contemporary world; as a concept, as an ideal, as a policy and as a goal to be achieved from the perspective of different academic disciplines. Often side-lined or simpli��ed, evil women challenge societal norms of womanhood. This volume explores how evil women have been constructed, punished, and erased within literature, culture, and ��lm and how this contributes to our understanding of womanhood.
In Creating a Shared Morality, Heather Salazar develops a plausible account of ethical constructivism that rivals realism and subjectivism. Enlightenism resolves dif��culties within constructivism, builds bridges between the two traditional views of metaethics and employs concepts from Eastern (Buddhist) philosophy.

Hegel’s Science of Logic represents a revolution in philosophical thought, advancing a modern and still relevant metaphysics. Flach presents Kant’s conception of freedom as well as its potential for understanding what it means to be human. Krijnen presents Hegel’s conception of freedom and shows that Kant’s conception underestimates an essential feature of freedom. The contributions of other authors assess the results. Halper’s study traces how the open-questioning of the divine arises in the works of Maimonides, Jacob Anatoli, Gersonides, and Abraham Bibago.

Protagoras claims to be able to educate the young. Why not? If «Man is Measure of Everything», anybody can make everybody ‘better’… To Plato, this doesn’t add up. What’s lacking? What is the measure of Man, if Man be measure? Mysticism and Romanticism are counter-models of an ever stranger modernity. Romanticism as a cultural epoch absorbs the supra-temporal religious phenomenon of mysticism. This volume deals with numerous examples, speci��cally the reception of Jacob Böhme in Romanticism.

Philosophical Approaches to the Foundations of Logic and Mathematics In Honor
No one theory of time is pursued in the essays of this volume, but a major theme that threads them together is Wolfson’s signature idea of the timeswerve as a linear circularity or a circular linearity, expressions that are meant to avoid the conventional split between the two temporal modalities of the line and the circle.
READERSHIP: All interested in philosophy of sciences, especially philosophy of logic and philosophy of mathematics.

Like an Animal
25PHILOSOPHYRECENTPUBLICATIONS
The contributors of Like an Animal challenge most fundamental concepts in the ��elds of racism, dehumanization, borders, displacement, and refugees that rest on the assumption of humanism. They show how we can bend the arc of the moral universe toward justice at the border. The goal of this interdisciplinary collection is twofold. First, to invite border/migration studies to consider a broader social justice perspective that includes nonhuman animals. Second, to start a discussion if nonhumans maybe refugees of a kind and how humans can address nonhumans’ interests and needs from the perspective of addressing refugee issues.
READERSHIP: All interested in integrated approaches to social justice, human rights, animal rights, animal ethics, communication for peace, ecology and environmental activism, displacement, migration, borders, and international relations.
