Personal Identity

Modality

(Text as at 06/07/2023 00:43:12)

Plug Note¹

• Thesis Text:
  1. Modality – the logic of possibility and necessity – is important to my thesis because discussions of Personal Identity often range over merely possible – rather than actual – events that an individual² might encounter and which might call that individual’s continued existence into doubt.
  2. This is particularly the case with the numerous popular thought experiments³ (TEs), one of which – Teletransportation⁴ – has a reference to this topic (the bungled duplication⁵ case and what this has to say about the standard singular case).
  3. Modality also features in the arguments over the logic of identity⁶ – in particular the standard view that Identity is a necessary relation, contra the heretical positions.
  4. "Sturgeon (Scott) - Zombies and Ghosts" has a useful categorisation of types of modality, and their relation to conceivability and genuine possibility.

• ---

  Further Remarks:
  1. I doubt I need to get into Modal Realism (Lewis⁷) or other discussions about what modality reduces to ontologically.
  2. The same goes for the intricacies of Modal Logic, though a quick read through "Girle (Rod) - Modal Logics and Philosophy" might be beneficial.
  3. I need to review my old notes on "Kripke (Saul) - Naming and Necessity".
  4. At Heythrop, I came across Norman Malcolm’s Modal Ontological Argument, which explains why this topic features in the “already read” reading list.

In-Page Footnotes:

Footnote 17:

• Modality is important in my thesis, because modal questions come into persistence criteria.
• That said, the last two essays in the book – by Hossack and Olson – are the most important, though of these two only that by Hossack really belongs to this Chapter.
