The common perception of nature is that it is an objectified thing “out there” somewhere. This mental view of nature arises from the standard subject–objective dichotomy that tends to define contemporary life. There are human beings, and then there are natural objects (wetlands) and phenomena (sunsets).

Think, 2020
I offer a minimal characterization of naturalism, with ontological, epistemological, psychological and evaluative dimensions. I explain why naturalism is attractive. I note that naturalists disagree among themselves about, among other things, the nature of values, beliefs, and abstractions.

AbstractAncient theories appeal to nature, in several ways, as support. This is distinguished from modern versions of naturalism. The ancient appeal to nature is not tied to a particular theory such as teleology, and involves nature as an ideal.

AbstractThis chapter formulates Leibniz’s naturalizing claims: what it is for a theory to be a natural theory. Three things will be emphasized: (a) Leibniz’s focus on individual natures, (b) Leibniz’s appeal to “rules of the good and beautiful,” and (c) the representational nature of individual substances, building the “rules of the good and beautiful”
