The development of science, logic, mathematics, and psychology in
the 19th century made it necessary to introduce a growing number of
new entities, of which classical empiricism and strong
extensionalism were unable to give a wholly satisfying account. One
of the major issues confronting the 20th century philosophers was
to identify which of these entities should be rationally accepted
as part of the furniture of the world and which should not, and to
provide a general account of how the latter are nevertheless
subject to true predication. The 13 original essays collected in
this volume explore some of the main approaches to this issue in
the 20th century, including Brentano, Meinong, Husserl, Carnap,
Frege, Twardowski, Kotarbinski, Nicolai Hartmann, and realist
phenomenologists.
