Über den Autor
Richard Routley/Sylvan (1935-1996), a New Zealand born philosopher, who was a research fellow at the Australian National University at the time of his death, rose to prominence for his work in the development of Relevance Logic, Deep Ecology and a revised and improved Meinongian ontology known as noneism. An iconoclastic figure in Australian philosophy, Routley/Sylvan s legacy thrives in the views of students and colleagues worldwide. Maureen Eckert is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at UMASS Dartmouth whose editorial works include Fate, Time and Language: David Foster Wallace s Essay on Free Will (2010), Freedom and the Self: Essays on the Philosophy of David Foster Wallace (2015) and Theories of Mind: Introductory Readings (2006). She is an advocate of non-classical logic, focusing on instructional methods for presenting it in undergraduate philosophy curricula.
