Abstract This chapter explores the understanding of “film art” that prevailed at Lenfilm during the last three decades of the Soviet Union’s existence. It was unusual for filmmakers at this period to produce manifestos or detailed discussions of their own artistic practices, but the studio discussions over nearly thirty years allow ...

The nonexistence of “hermaphroditic” tracer systems
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 1980This communiction argues that so-called “hermaphroditic” tracer systems, which are neither open nor closed, do not exist physically. The argument is based on the assumption that any observable (possibly nonhomogeneous) macroscopic compartment can be approximated by a compartmentC with a finite number of entry points for the tracer, each associated with

The Nonexisting Roma Archaeology and Nonexisting Roma Archaeologists
2012When speaking about minorities and their heritage within a majority society, it becomes apparent that the largest minority in total in Eastern Central Europe, the Roma, has hardly ever been discussed in this context. With many variants of their original Indo-Iranian language, the Roma are still a people that, according to the most of their many ...

Most believe that it is worse for a person to die than to continue to exist with a good life. At the same time, many believe that it is not worse for a merely possible person never to exist than to exist with a good life. I argue that if the underlying properties that make us the sort of thing we essentially are can come in small degrees, then to ...

Linguistic Landscape. An international journal, 2019
Abstract Spatially interested sociolinguistics has cared little about the semiotics of nonexistence. The present article argues that the field would benefit from deepening its interest in questions of erasure and relative absence. A case in point, as the article shows, is graffiti.

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, 2009
AbstractI defend a cluster of views about names from fiction and myth. The views are based on two claims: first, proper names refer directly to their bearers; and second, names from fiction and myth are genuinely empty, they simply do not refer. I argue that when such names are used in direct discourse, utterances containing them have truth values but ...

Abstract Since, as most philosophers of death agree, death implies nonexistence (the corpse is not the dead person, who is essentially a living being), it follows that the mystery of death is due in no small part to the paradox of nonexistence.

Abstract The paradox of nonexistence, bequeathed us by Parmenides, is introduced: how can there be something that fails to exist if there’s nothing “there” to not exist? This is a paradox since, intuitively, many things do in fact fail to exist—for example, creatures of fiction or myth, impossible objects like the round square, past ...
