Die Philosophie wurde von so unterschiedlichen Philosophen wie
Wolff und Russell als Moglichkeitswissenschaft bezeichnet. Doch
erwiesen sich die modalen Konzepte von Moglichkeit und
Notwendigkeit als sperrig und vieldeutig, und ihr Verhaltnis zum
Wirklichkeitsbegriff bleibt problematisch. Die vorliegende Sammlung
beleuchtet die Metaphysik und Logik von Moglichkeit und
Wirklichkeit aufs Neue und betrachtet sie aus unterschiedlichsten
Perspektiven jenseits der Dichotomie von analytischer und
kontinentaler Philosophie. Die Philosophiegeschichte (von der
griechischen Antike bis zu David Lewis) kommt ebenso zu Wort wie
die Semantik moglicher Welten; Logik, Mathematik und
Computerwissenschaft ebenso wie Literatur und Neue Medien; Formen
des wissenschaftlichen ebenso wie des fiktionalen Diskurses.
Philosophy has been called the science of the possible by
philosophers as diverse as Christian Wolff and Bertrand Russell.
The modal concepts of possibility and necessity, however, have
proved to be ambiguous and recalcitrant to analysis, and their
relation to the concept of reality have remained problematic up to
the present day. Transcending the worn-out dichotomy between
analytic and continental philosophy, this collection of papers
takes a fresh look at the metaphysics and logic of possibility and
reality, and illuminates them from a great variety of perspectives.
Topics include the history of philosophy (from Greek antiquity to
David Lewis) as well as the semantics of possible worlds; logic,
mathematics and computer science as well as literature and the new
media; forms of scientific as well as fictional discourse."
