Sensology and Enargeia
Authors: Newhauser Richard G. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Using sensology to examine feelings produced by the reception of intensely vivid descriptions that early rhetoricians termed the technique of enargeia allows us a degree of specificity about collective responses to the reception of literature within sensory communities, and it provides a channel from sensation to perception that no longer privileges the visual. Focusing on the multisensual in enargeia demonstrates literature’s unique ability to guide the senses in the representation of reality and to create the reader’s intensified presence within that reality. The interconnection between affects, emotions, and the senses can be illustrated in the late fourteenth-century Piers the Plowman’s Crede, which articulates the political charge of appealing to sensory formations in literature. The Lollard networks that read this text participated in the misery and wisdom of its ploughman, forming a sensory community through the presentation of sight and touch in the enargeia of his initial entrance into the poem.
Multisensory Entanglements In Edwidge Danticat’s Claire Of The Sea Light And Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Purple Hibiscus
Authors: Lobnik Mirja 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
In Edwidge Danticat’s Claire of the Sea Light and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Purple Hibiscus, renderings of the landscape, in particular the vegetal world, help destabilize culturally mediated understandings of the senses and foreground the biotic contours of perception. This chapter engages with the living essence of the world of vegetal being and with the possibility of a sensuous return to the earth. Informed by the writings of sound scholar Salomé Voegelin, environmental philosopher Michael Marder, and biologist Robin Wall Kimmerer, it draws on the figure of the plant for reimagining subjectivity in terms of explicit conscious agency and becoming attentive to growth—physiological, spiritual, relational. By offering a communal ethics oriented towards the growth and transformation of life and its sharing among sentient, living beings, the chapter foregrounds multisensory environments in human experience and imagination and sets the stage for alternative ways of perceiving the world.
Comparative relatives in German
Authors: Pankau Andreas 
Published: August 2023

AbstractGerman possesses a curious type of non-interrogative subordinate clause that seems to have the function of a relative clause but not the form of a relative clause. It has a restricting function but it is introduced by the wh-word wie ‘how’, which is never used as a relative pronoun. In this chapter, I argue on the basis of ten criteria that this hitherto underdescribed type of clause belongs to the category of equative subcomparatives, that is, comparative clauses that compare quantities or qualities of distinct entities and establish identity between the compared qualities or quantities. The relevant identity that is established in this type of clause is one of kinds. The two entities, although distinct, are equated as being kind identical. This property gives this type of clause the flavour of a relative clause, and they are hence referred to as comparative relatives. I develop an analysis for comparative relatives as subcomparatives and discuss some benefits and consequences of this analysis for the movement theory of subcomparatives, left branch extraction, island effects, and antipronominal contexts.
Embedding force and attitude
Authors: Tsai Wei-Tien Dylan 
Published: August 2023

AbstractThis chapter examines a peculiar case of force/attitude embedding, i.e., the non-canonical wh-construals in Chinese and Vietnamese subordinate clauses, and offers a selection-truncation analysis along the line of the Cartographic Approach. This move provides a plausible account of the embeddability of disapproval/whining wh-construals in Mandarin Chinese, which in turn reveals that the root-subordinate asymmetry is not as clear-cut as previously thought, where prominent features such as causality and mirativity play an important role across-the-board. Furthermore, substantial support has been drawn from Vietnamese and Taiwan Southern Min (TSM) from the vantage point of comparative syntax. This line of research may well shed new light on the nature of syntax-pragmatics mapping and advance our understanding of how s-selection and c-selection work together to license syntactic complementation.
Thedoubt-whetherpuzzle
Authors: Uegaki Wataru 
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe predicate doubt exhibits a distinctive selectional restriction: it is compatible with declarative and whether-complements but is incompatible with constituent wh-complements. The interpretation of a whether-complement under doubt is also puzzling, as doubt whether p is almost—but not completely—synonymous with doubt that p. This chapter presents a semantic account of these facts, based on the mechanisms of highlighting and exhaustification. Doubt expresses an existential doxastic attitude toward the negation of the highlighted content of the complement while having presuppositions that are sensitive to the ordinary content of the complement. Since that p and whether p are equivalent in the highlighted content but non-equivalent in the ordinary content, the semantics explains fine-grained differences in interpretations between doubt whether p and doubt that p. Furthermore, due to the absence of a stronger scalemate, the interpretation of doubt that/whether p undergoes strengthening via exhaustification, akin to the behavior of scaleless modals.
Selling Ancestry
Authors: Jettot Stéphane 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Often quoted but rarely studied in their own right, family directories allow a reconsideration of how ancestry and genealogy became an object of widespread commercialization across the 18th century. They replaced the expensive, locally produced early modern artefacts (tombs, windowpanes, illuminated pedigrees) and by doing so, reached a wide audience of readers in the British Isles and the colonies. From the first Peerage in 1709 to the guidebooks of Debrett’s and Burke’s in the 1830s, the book offers an insight into the cumulative process leading to the creation of hybrid products, at the intersection between court almanacs, county histories, and town directories. Employed by contemporaries as reference tools to navigate through a dynamic and changing society, they should also be used as a means to probe contemporary attitudes towards social status and political events. Published by the most prominent London booksellers who shared their copyrights among themselves, they relied on the considerable involvement of thousands of families in the counties. In their correspondence with publishers, many new and old elites desired to insert their own narrative into a general history of Britain by dispatching documents, quotations, and anecdotes. Based on a unique source-base, this book provides a systematic review of these directories, their production and sale, but also their potential role in shaping the character of social change. It demonstrates the wider ramifications of genealogy and its structural ability to reinvent itself, associate amateurs and antiquarians alike, and thrive on the wavering lines between facts and fiction.
Hundreds of Customers
Authors: Jettot Stéphane 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
The third chapter deals with the ‘Baconian’ knowledge-gathering correspondence networks which publishers established with their customers. It appears that while the social elite gravitated to a more ‘national’ society, many families were far from estranged from their historical localities. Three letter samples are treated separately, as they relate to very different editorial projects and political contexts. Hence, the first Baronetage (1727–41) by Thomas Wotton left two volumes of letters, mostly sent by the northern landed families who had risen to prominence during the Restoration. In 1800–5, William Betham launched a luxury Baronetage that attracted the interest of recent baronets, who owed their elevation to Pitt the Younger. A much larger corpus of 400 correspondents relates to the preparation of the first volumes of John Burke’s History of the Commoners in 1828–9. They belonged to a landed ‘aristocratic class’ whose homogeneity should not be overstated. In their letters, genteel values did not always easily coexist with commercial, colonial, and industrial interests.
Family Ties and Publishers’ Enquiries
Authors: Jettot Stéphane 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
In the early modern period, most families were more likely to refute any involvement in the crafting of their pedigree, while in the eighteenth century, publishers were more likely to stress the participation of the ‘public’. They celebrated the generosity of the household heads who agreed to furnish documents and anecdotes. However, both demographic challenges and individual fallibilities ensured that family memory was not simply provided by the masters of the household alone. More often than not, they failed to answer or decided to redirect enquiries to their uncles, younger brothers, and nephews. Although their contributions were rarely acknowledged, many women were at the centre stage of the publication process, either as the main correspondents or as providers of data to their husbands or sons. Family members would often collaborate in a constructive and affectionate manner as they were linked by mutual obligation and a sense of shared identity. Their letters also betray various degrees of resentments and conflicts in the kinship.
Conclusion
Authors: Jettot Stéphane 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Genealogies resisted their reduction to mere social-status-signalling documents and generated a growing field of micro-studies in which the diverse motives of individuals, families, and communities should be explored in a more nuanced manner. Differences regarding the content and format of genealogies could be accounted for by divergent rationales, such as specific family expectations and religious and various political agendas. Family directories merit reinstatement into a general narrative from which they were retrospectively ousted. Employed by contemporaries as reference tools to navigate through a dynamic and changing society, they should not be interpreted as signs of a surviving ‘Ancien Régime’. The impulse to recover a sense of place or to claim roots was part and parcel of the commercial and imperial growth. Nor should they be considered an ‘abased’ product from a dying lineage society, since the notion of abasement would imply the pre-existence of an ‘authentic’ genealogical culture.
Laboratory
Authors: Ohlmeyer Jane 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
This chapter examines Ireland as laboratory of and for empire, a place of testing, where some experiments worked and others failed, where some were directed by the Crown or imperial agents and others emerged organically. Section I examines concepts of empire and how Ireland served as a test bed where ethnocentric ideas were worked out and iterated over time in accordance with changing imperial priorities. Building on the discussion of anglicisation in Chapter 2, Section II explores the imprint of Ireland across the governance, policies, and physical landscape of the English empire. Section III looks at how ‘tools of empire’ were trialled in Ireland and then adopted, albeit having been adapted to suit local circumstances, throughout the early modern Anglophone world. In the final two sections arguments developed in early modernity are extended into the modern period using Ireland and India as a case study. Thus the focus of Section IV is on the structural and human links between Ireland and India that continued into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Moving from discussions of being servants of empire, Section V looks briefly at the Irish as subversives within it—how Ireland served as an exemplar for resistance to imperial rule and how a colonised people helped to bring down the British empire.
Kant's Reason
Authors: Schafer Karl 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Kant’s Reason develops a novel interpretation of Kant’s conception of reason and its philosophical significance, focusing on two claims. First, it argues that Kant presents a powerful model for understanding the unity of theoretical and practical reason as two manifestations of a unified capacity for theoretical and practical understanding (or “comprehension”). This model allows us to do justice to the deep commonalities between theoretical and practical rationality, without reducing either to the other. In particular, through it we see why the activities of both theoretical and practical reason are governed by a version of the Principle of Sufficient Reason, and why reason is essentially autonomous. At the same time, Kant’s Reason reads Kant as presenting us with a compelling picture of the role that reason (as a capacity or power) should play in a systematic approach to foundational philosophical questions. In doing so, it argues for an account of the fundamental norms that apply to rational beings that treats as fundamental neither substantive reasons or values nor merely structural rationality, but instead a robust conception of reason as a power or capacity for theoretical and practical understanding. The result is a form of “rational constitutivism,” which contrasts both with the forms of “reasons fundamentalism” that are currently fashionable and the forms of “agency-first constitutivism” that have dominated Kantian metaethics. In this sense, the book’s aim is to vindicate Kant’s insistence that his philosophy represents nothing more or less than reason’s implicit self-understanding coming to explicit and systematic self-consciousness.
Conative Transcendental Arguments and the Question Whether There Can Be External Reasons
Authors: Moore A. W. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
A characterization of transcendental arguments is proffered whereby they yield conclusions about how things are via intermediate conclusions about how we must think that they are. A variant kind of argument is then introduced. Arguments of this variant kind are dubbed ‘conative’ transcendental arguments: these yield conclusions about how it is desirable for things to be via intermediate conclusions about how we must desire that they are. The prospects for conative transcendental arguments are considered. It is argued that, although they can never be of practical use, they may nevertheless be of use in dissolving certain applications of the debate—initiated by Bernard Williams—about whether anyone can have an ‘external’ reason to do anything, that is to say a reason that is not grounded in some desire of the person’s, in a suitably broad sense of ‘desire’. The relevance of conative transcendental arguments to this debate is that they highlight desires that we cannot help having and with respect to which the debate lacks any suitable focus. In the final section of the essay five conative transcendental arguments deriving from the work of five moral philosophers are briefly considered.
Quasi-Realism and Relativism
Authors: Moore A. W. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
This essay first appeared as a contribution to a symposium on Simon Blackburn’s book Ruling Passions. In this book Blackburn argues that the quasi-realism that he defends, whereby an ethic reflects the conative states of different people, does not entail that our own ethic is in any interesting sense ‘just’ ours, and so does not, in any interesting sense, involve any relativism. This essay is an attempt to rebut Blackburn’s arguments, while conceding their role in indicating both how carefully the relativism in question needs to be formulated and how important it is not to conflate metaphysical issues with ethical issues. Some comparisons and contrasts are drawn between the ethical quasi-realism under discussion and a modal quasi-realism concerning necessity and possibility. One lesson that emerges is that the relativism in question is partly a matter of the different ethical concepts by which people can live.
Wittgenstein and Infinity
Authors: Moore A. W. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
The aim of this essay is to give an overview of Wittgenstein’s conception of the infinite. One focus of the essay is Wittgenstein’s rejection of what is dubbed a ‘realist’ model of our idea of the infinite. On this model our idea is the source of beliefs that we have about an independent reality. Another focus is the way in which Wittgenstein’s rejection of this model leads him to reject the idea of the infinite itself as it appears in certain mathematical contexts. It is argued that these two rejections can be uncoupled: abandonment of the realist model of our idea of the infinite is consonant with full endorsement of the use to which mathematicians put the idea. There remains scope for Wittgenstein to take issue, if not with the use to which mathematicians put the idea, then with their choice of language in doing so, something that he has reason to do precisely because this choice encourages adoption of the realist model.
Wittgenstein’s Later Philosophy of Mathematics
Authors: Moore A. W. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
The aim of this essay is to consider some aspects of Wittgenstein’s (later) philosophy of mathematics. The main focus of the essay is an apparent tension between his philosophy of philosophy, according to which it is not the business of philosophers to criticize actual mathematical practice, and his philosophy of mathematics, whereby he frequently seems to do precisely that. A defence of Wittgenstein is considered that exploits a distinction that he himself draws, within mathematical practice, between the ‘calculus’ and the surrounding ‘prose’: the defence is that the former is all that is strictly immune to criticism, while the latter, which harbours various philosophical confusions, is all that he ever criticizes. But concerns about this distinction are raised, partly in connection with how mathematics is applied. At the end of the essay it is suggested that, if there really is the tension between Wittgenstein’s philosophy of philosophy and his philosophy of mathematics that there appears to be, then the fault may lie with his philosophy of philosophy.
Victimhood, Memory, and Consumerism
Authors: Franko Katja , Goyes David R. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Victimhood, Memory, and Consumerism: Profiting from Pablo documents the story of violence that took place in Medellín in the 1980s and 1990s, and critically examines the position of its victims. Drawing on unique empirical material, the book addresses the consequences, for the victims of mass drug violence and for the present nature of the city, of the commercial exploitation of the city’s violent past. The book describes how the city’s suffering has been appropriated by commercial forces to provide entertainment for global audiences. The profiting referred to in the title includes profits made by the global entertainment industry from the immense popularity of narco-series, as well as those made by Medellín’s tourism industry, which offers Escobar-themed tours, souvenirs, and collectibles, as well as less visible profits made by political and social actors who engage in the global mythmaking surrounding Escobar. The book offers a critique of how the global market economy allows unequal narrative power to those engaged in the processes of collective memory construction. Through interviews with those directly affected by drug violence, we show that these cultural forces have immediate symbolic and material consequences. Powerful commercial actors, such as Netflix, have turned one of the main perpetrators of the violence into a global icon. Victims of drug violence, on the other hand, not only face the possibility of their losses being consigned to oblivion, but are also excluded from cosmopolitan notions of justice and struggle against impunity.
A city at war
Authors: Franko Katja , Goyes David R. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
This chapter’s primary focus is the context of violence in Medellín. We begin with a summary of the violence that has devastated Colombia since the colonial times. We cover the (failed) attempts to build a unified nation-state, the status of Colombia as a neo-colony of the United States, the relationship between state and society, and the forms of inequality and crime experienced by the country’s inhabitants. The goal of this broad contextualization is to explain how the highly unequal structure of Colombian society became a fertile ground for the rise of drug cartels. The chapter then zooms in on the violence perpetrated by the Medellín cartel between 1980 and 2001. Ranging from assassinations to a plane bombing, to daily murders, the acts of violence outlined in this chapter paint a portrait of the reign of terror that turned Medellín into the most violent city in the world. Drawing on a database of news reports of violent events connected to drug cartels in the city along with an archival study of the events, we map the damage wreaked by narco-violence on the city’s daily life, the social interactions of its inhabitants, and the country’s legal and democratic institutions. Using the voices of Medellín’s inhabitants, most of whom were victims of narco-violence, the chapter provides a sensorial account of what it was like to live in a city at war.
Introduction

Published: August 2023

Abstract
Financial institutions provide key services for any economy; however, they do encounter financial distress, and when their activities and assets cross borders, there is need for an effective set of mechanisms to preserve value where possible and to devise a strategy for resolution, including recovery and liquidation. This chapter sketches the way that finance, financial intermediation, and financial distress have travelled across political borders. The chapter also introduces the gap in cross-border cooperation amongst resolution authorities. A resolution strategy concerning a distressed institution with stakeholders, activities, and/or assets in different jurisdictions is likely to be credible and viable—not least in the context of a financial sector crisis—if the effects of measures taken are sufficiently certain, abroad as much as home. The chapter argues that the efficacy of the cross-border resolution framework depends on authorities who trust and cooperate with each other, and who understand key resolution measures and why some such measures may appropriately be deployed in relation to a particular distressed institution. The approach proposed is likely to encourage the adoption of tools and protocols by incentivizing resolution authorities to communicate and cooperate. This chapter sets the stage for the rest of the book.
The Application of the Regulatory Landscape (II)—Emerging Models
Authors: Davis Ronald , Madaus Stephan , Marcucci Monica , Mevorach Irit , Mokal Riz , Romaine Barbara , Sarra Janis , Tirado Ignacio 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
This chapter covers the banking systems of the world’s most important emerging jurisdictions, either because they have the largest banking sector (China), because of the large population and growth potential of the economy (India), or because they represent regions of the world where economic development is likely to accelerate in the near future (Africa and Latin America). The chapter provides a high-level overview of the factual and legal situation of representative banking sectors. Our country examples are representative of frameworks in these regions and are sufficiently descriptive to be able to appreciate the challenges for cross-border resolution. The chapter provides overviews of the different regions and pays particular attention to the regional cross-border activity and the cooperation agreements existing at present.
