  3. Bradley, F. H.: Logic.D. L. C. Maclachlan -2015
    F. H. Bradley: Logic Although the logical system expounded by F. H. Bradley in The Principles of Logic is now almost forgotten, it had many virtues. To appreciate them, it is helpful to understand that Bradley had a very different view of logic from that prevalent today. He is hostile to the idea of … Continue reading Bradley, F.

    Strawson and the argument for other minds.D. L. C. MacLachlan -1993 -Journal of Philosophical Research 18:149-157.
    The classical argument for the existence of other minds begins by ascribing states of consciousness to oneself, and argues to the existence of other conscious beings on the basis of an analogy in bodily constitution and behavior. P. F. Strawson attacks the foundation of this argument. “One can ascribe states of consciousness to oneself only if one can ascribe them to others. One can ascribe them to others only if one can identify other subjects of experience.” My thesis is that (...) this objection depends on running together the two distinct necessary conditions for ascribing states of consciousness. There is the conceptual condition (a general concept of consciousness); and there is the referential condition (the capacity to identify suitable subjects).A version of the argument from analogy is also developed which does not presuppose an original consciousness that my experiences are mine. The general concept of experience is by itself enough for the original specification of all experiences associated with body M, because other experiences which also conform to the concept are not introduced until the argument from analogy is complete.

    The Enigma of Perception.D. L. C. Maclachlan -2013 - Mcgill-Queen's University Press.
    How do we acquire knowledge through a sensory input from our environment? In The Enigma of Perception, D.L.C. Maclachlan revives the traditional causal representative theory of perception which dominated philosophical thinking for hundreds of years by revealing the important element of truth the theory contained. The traditional theory was not a complete explanation of perception, because it presupposed a causal system including both the physical objects and the subjective experiences. The pattern of inference from sensations to external objects, which lies (...) at its heart, is nevertheless legitimate, because the assumptions on which it depends are generally recognized as true. The emerging enigma is how to explain this original knowledge of the world on which the traditional theory depends. The key idea is that sense experience is constructed as a response to sensory input - an act whose purpose is to represent a reality beyond the cognitive subject. The Enigma of Perception develops original ideas to explain this process in detail, with help from numerous philosophers from John Locke to David Chalmers. (shrink)

    The Traditional Theory of Perception Comes Back to Life.D. L. C. MacLachlan -2018 -Proceedings of the XXIII World Congress of Philosophy 75:157-161.
    The causal representative theory of perception dominated theory of knowledge for hundreds of years after it was put on the map by Descartes and Locke. It is now almost extinct. How could this happen? The theory collapsed because it could not explain how we acquire knowledge of the external world, since it presupposes a causally organized system of external objects producing sensations in us. This presupposition, however, is generally recognized as true, so that the pattern of causal inference at the (...) heart of the theory is surely justified. The theory cannot explain how we originally acquire our knowledge of the external world, but it is entitled on a second pass to correct our empirical beliefs, where necessary. This includes replacing our naive picture of the physical world with a more sophisticated scientific conception, which downgrades secondary qualities. This was, indeed, the main reason why it was originally introduced by Descartes and Locke, and has been the source of its attraction over the years. (shrink)

    Review: Gram, Interpreting Kant. [REVIEW]D. L. C. Maclachlan -1986 -Idealistic Studies 16 (2):154-155.
    For two hundred years, interpreting Kant has been regarded as a truly formidable task. But is the problem philosophical or philological? The answer which constitutes the raison d’être of this volume is that it is both. The introduction refers to “the need for the integration of philology and philosophy into philosophical semantics” and states that “This is also what makes the present undertaking distinctive”.

    Kant on Causality, Freedom, and Objectivity. [REVIEW]D. L. C. Maclachlan -1987 -Idealistic Studies 17 (3):263-265.
    The papers in this collection trace their ancestry to conferences in London, Ontario, and Rochester, New York, given in 1979 on the occasion of the retirement of Lewis White Beck. Most of the papers take issue with Beck’s contributions to the discussion of Kant’s second analogy.
