This volume collects fifteen original essays on E. J. Lowe's work
on metaphysics and ontology. The essays connect Lowe's insights
with contemporary issues in metaphysics. E. J. Lowe (1950-2014) was
one of the most influential analytical philosophers of the
twentieth and early twenty-first century. Drawing inspiration from
Aristotle's thought, E. J. Lowe treated metaphysics as an
autonomous discipline concerned with the fundamental structure of
reality. The chapters in this volume reflect on his path-breaking
work. They deal with a wide range of metaphysical issues including
four-category ontology, the causal and non-causal aspects of
agency, categorial fundamentality and non-fundamentality, the
existence of relations, property dualism, powers and abilities,
personal identity, predication, and topological ontology. Taken
together, the chapters reflect the liveliness of contemporary
debates in metaphysics and the enduring impact of Lowe's thought on
them. E. J. Lowe and Ontology will be of interest to researchers
and advanced students working in metaphysics and philosophy of
mind.
