The discussion revolves around modal logic, Saul Kripke's work, the controversy between necessitists and contingentists, higher-order logics, and metaphysics. Williamson argues for necessitism and explains the importance of higher-order logics in understanding metaphysical concepts. The article highlights the shift towards broader themes and the development of higher-order metaphysics in philosophical inquiries. Readers interested in entering these fields are advised to master logic, approach philosophy as theorizing, and evaluate theories abductively, considering evidence and trade-offs between simplicity and strength. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Problems / Problemos is the property of Vilnius University and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
