  • Back to the notion of textual feedback
  • In the retrospective projection of the Peri hermeneias onto theIsagoge, certain QRCs from the Peri hermeneias have been imported at the same time as the semantic triangle, and have "taken on" a new dimension by being inserted into the Porphyrian device
  • This is the case of the CQR of the "goat-goat"
  • The tragelaphos is not the only protagonist in the debate on the fictional, infra-fictional or suprafictional status of the universal
  • We also have Homer, the golden mountain, the unicorn, the Chimera and the Centaur
  • Examination of some aspects of the literature on the "goat-goat"(Tragelaphus strepsiceros, or Great Kudu)
  • Origins of the distinction between nominal and real definition
  • Neoplatonists put the universal above fiction
  • A poem by Oscar Wilde
  • A philosophical history of the "mountain of gold
  • The "mountains of gold" in Thomas Aquinas and Roger Bacon
  • Russell and Meinong. Existence and subsistence - Heidegger's "mountain of gold": Vorhandensein vs. objective (imagined) being
  • The chiasmus of subject and object
  • Foucault's "mountain of gold
  • Foucault's distinction between statement and proposition
  • Don't "confuse the relationship between a statement and what it states, with the relationship between a proposition and its referent"
  • Logicians say that a proposition like "The Gold Mountain is in California" cannot be verified because it has no referent
  • Foucault's answer
  • The statement does not refer to a state of affairs, which would be a variable external to its intentional aim. The statement refers to a discursive object
  • Deleuzian reading of Foucault
  • On the difference between characters and things that don't exist. A logician's point of view
  • Leonard Linsky's thesis: to the question of how we can talk about objects that don't exist, the correct answer is that, strictly speaking, we don't talk about them.
